Liquid nitrogen is extremely dangerous!
A few seconds with your hand in liquid nitrogen would indeed destroy it. The reason the guy can hold a drop in his hand is because of what is called the Leidenfrost Effect - vaporizing liquid creates an insulating layer of gas between the liquid and his hand, offering a degree of protection. Definitely, don't try this at home.
