I suspect that the wind rushing beneath him has a lot to do with it, though I am sure some upper body strength is necessary.

It has a lot more to do with core strength than upper body strength. Obviously he needs to be able to lift himself up onto the tank, but holding your body in that position is pretty much all core strength/balance.

In gymnastics this is called a planche.
In motorcycling this is called a dipshit.
