There is no way any AR-15 would fire from releasing the bolt. The bolt locks back when the magazine is empty, so that when you put a new mag in you can hit the bolt release (button on the left side) or pull it back a bit with the charging handle to release it, or do what he did for some stupid reason to release it. ARs fire from a closed bolt and will only fire when the safety is off and the firing pin can hit the round when the weapon has been cocked and locked, and the trigger is pulled.
