Dude has balls of steel. Now someone tell me would he be able to stay up in the air jif he had more fuel? Or would he just slowley keep falling closer to the ground over time?

That depends on if he had a treadmill....

I think it would depend on how much lift he could gain vs.gravity.
Isn't a glider is in a state of falling while flying?

He said he was able to maintain an altitude of 2000 feet for a half a minute. I would think with a little more thrust he'd be able to gain altitude. I wonder how many government and military agencies are now working on trying to improve this.
