There is a massive difference between being a hardcore raider and being an excellent "best of the best" raider.

All of the people I know in top 5 guilds are crazy smart and successful in real life. All the best players in my guild are also smart and successful (professionals, managers, VP's etc.).

We do have the "hardcore raider" loser type that plays/reads about the game 20 hours a day, but their performance is average at best (attitude is the stereotypical "I'm awesome at wow and thus I'm better than you"). Obviously from a layman's perspective, these two types of people are the same, and I don't think the video did a very good job differentiating the two.
