Same here.....always had a dodgy set of points on my first layout that did this, but the loco came off.  :'(  Good video though!

Didn't it get tried at Waterloo by accident ?

It's also done for real in a few cases with wagons being turned nearly 90° this way to end load.

Not to hand no. The wagons were built with bogies that can turn the full 90° then hauled up to a point and one bogie sent each way. I'm not sure how they were then hauled sideways - pair of horses or chains perhaps.

Narrow gauge people do equally wonderous things to turn bogie wagons on wagon turntables - one bogie 90° then pull/push until the other bogie is on the turntable and turn that one 90°
