how is this done using after effects

Masks:

Looks mostly like very simple split screen - filmed three times and masks make three tracks into one composite.
 
Yep, hours of tedious masking. The most impressive shots are the ones where the camera moves, such as the two shots from 1:59, awesome! I think they may have used a dolly in the second one with a motor to move it at a constant speed and matched it up that way. As for the jump, they've clearly used the one shot but duplicated it a bunch of times, offset them before and after the original shot in time and used some pretty clever (although not perfect, watch the guys in the lead at the end of the shot) motion tracking to get them to all line up and move properly with the camera.
 
Locked off cameras and masks seems to be it. But yeah.. the shots where the camera is moving indeed are impressive
 
Is there a tutorial for the cool animated "Knife Show" text in the beginning?
That's a pretty cool effect.
