What gear he had i dont know, but he open inventory in the last fight to change weapons you can see he only have 25k dps on the "datasheet" --> http://i.imgur.com/HxGSp.jpg
That explains kinda well what gear snapshot monks using for their different sets.
Yes i have a basic understanding how sw + gear swapping works.
The only time a barb (with BIS items) can compete with the damage output of a "min maxing" exploiting monk is when the fight/measurement last under 15 sec (Azmodan)
To be able to compete in those 15s the barb need to use WOTB Insanity + Earthquake (120sec cooldown on both). While the monk can sustain that damage output.
And this is without even taking into consideration the difference in EHP/substain vs a glass cannon 15sec barb and a min maxing sw gearswapping monk. (the monk cant be killed in hes post snapshot gear)
*edit*
Please not that i dont want blizzard to nerf/change the sw skill itself, i just think they should make it so gear swapping ain't possible anymore. (while keeping the sw buff)
The best solution:
When you switch gear with sweeping wind active, it automatically de-activates. Pretty simple solution, no drawbacks ?
On realy high budgets for endgame gear its again kinda even out between all classes again.
You sure about that? I admit, I haven't looked intensely into the matter, but from what I've seen, if we're talking about endgame gear, barb pulls way ahead with their hota spec.
You are incorrect
I had the previous world record überbosses solo with BIS/close to BIS in all slots. (and still have the legit one, in my mind atleast)
I used over 8 hours recording those runs. (close to perfect)
Then this exploting monk comes along killing all them in under 3min (with not even good runs + one other player join in the end of each fight..)

Other video of the same monk running trough mp10 monster liker they were mp1
Siegebreaker and Kulle: 1min and 30 sec
Rakanoth and Ghom killtime: 29sec
Magdha and skeleking killtime: 1min and 14sec
Total killtime = 3min and 13sec
(This will be my last überboss solo speedkill video)
I actually think this recording is more meaningful compare to all the other world record speedkills since this actually involves a bit more gear balance and skill balance. (Can go all out dps when you have a wiz that perma freeze everything)
Counting the time from first hit until the bosses are dead in your run:
Siegebreaker and Kulle = 138sec --> 2mins and 18 sec.
Magdha and skeleking = 119 sec --> 1min and 59 sec.
Rakanoth and Ghom = 86 sec -> 1min and 26 sec.
Let say 400k ranged dps vs 100k hp barb - if someone really think that melee class can stand a chance must be naive or just dumb ;). I like even more all those comments about skill and builds - wrong game dude it's all about gear and $$$ at end.
What will you do when you face a ranged barb with more dps then you, and more ehp ?

This...
They should atleast prohibit the gear swap when you have snapshotted your sw damage

Something have to be changed, and i suggest:

Can you give me a estimate how much both gear sets cost ? (pre and post snapshot)
I used lifesteal passiv (bloodthist) and rend to keep alive.
