It's fake. 
Explain why you think it is fake.
It looks cool and if it is possible I would love to try it.

It is fake. It's simply not possible. I'll explain it to you if you're interested. Even if they duct taped the legs and other places where helium could leak out, the clothes are meant to be porous so there's no way it would keep the gas in that well without some specialised inner compartment.
And then there's the fact that the volume of helium needed to lift the average human is simply immense. Trust me, me and my friends filled up a sex doll on the last day of school with helium and that didn't even lift off the floor (as a prank).
Then mythbusters also tested how many balloons they'd need to lift up a human, and it took like 100 industrial sized balloons.
So there, it can't work. It's fake.
