i've not commented on this yet but i've been following the news for about a month. At first i thought it was real and he was giving up but as the whole event gathers pace i'm pretty sure it's for a documentry. Casey Afleck is filming him all the time (he's his brother in law).
This was on last night, right at the end he says you did a good job, it's good but does look a little staged.
