well, that is about as fake as it gets!

a Co2 fire extinguisher is inappropriate for putting out burning fuel

a class B fire extinguisher would be needed like halon or foam.
Co2 can only be effective if you can completely smother the flames long enough for the fuel to cool below its flashpoint, otherwise it would just start up again.

furthermore a cloud of c02 gas won't stop a stream of flammable liquid as is suggested by that video.

don't try this at home kids.
