Boeing was pretty straightforward about telling people it wasn’t as steep as it seemed, but the camera angle made it look far steeper. They also said there wasn’t a full load of fuel, etc. But they did say what they did was completely within the flight parameters.

I will say, if you ever saw the video of Air Force One taking off from Florida on 9/11, that plane has some serious climb capability for a plane that big. That one looked to me like it was doing an EXTREMELY steep and fast climb out.
