Not sure if he'd do that to a digital M; I'm not claiming they're any less robust, but it's possible that the film cameras could take more abuse. (Edited: he does say at the end that he stands on the digital models too!)
Not an M6. M6 does not have a self timer. Looks like an M3.
edit - for the pic posted above.
Interestingly it almost looks like he is not standing on the camera, but jumping in front of it!
You might be right! Regardless, I thought it was an interesting stunt/photo--but not so interesting I dropped my Valuable Personal Property insurance for my gear either
