Hahahah that's amazing
I know you're being light hearted with the comment about being booked because it's so bad, but just to pre-empt the question, the laws of the game say:
Procedure
Feinting in the run-up to take a penalty kick to confuse opponents is permitted
as part of football. However, feinting to kick the ball once the player has
completed his run-up is considered an infringement of Law 14 and an act of
unsporting behaviour for which the player must be cautioned.

What about the encroachment?
The keeper was miles off his line. Retake it.
Both offences rely on the outcome of the penalty kick (a goalkeeper off his line should only be punished if he saves it, a player who encroaches should only be punished if his team benefits from the encroachment). Since the kick wasn't taken they weren't offences.
But the penalty HAS been taken. If not, then surely it would be taken again.
The rule is unfairly skewed towards the keeper. The keeper has commited an offence first, in travelling yards off his line before the striker completes his run up. Rather than feinting, he should have just stopped completely and shown the keeper up. Would HE have then been booked?
Depends on the ref. The penalty is completed when the ref says it is, and if the ref has deemed the feint to kick at the end of the run up as an offence, the penalty was stopped before the kick.
The keeper? No. Because coming off the line early isn't a cautionable offence, if the penalty is scored it isn't even an offence.
Delaying the taking of the kick IS an offence though, so if the striker continually refused to kick it, if each time he addressed the ball, the keeper came out early, then you would have an argument for the keeper getting a card.
In that instance it would be the taker who was delaying the taking of the kick (as long as the keeper starts on his goal line). It is not the penalty taker's responsibility to enforce the laws, it's the referee's. The referee would remind the player that and probably warn him if he continued to run up to the ball and not kick it he would be at risk of a caution. If the keeper kept coming off his line and saving the penalty he would be at risk of a caution for persistent infringement.
So after he started to fall he kicked out at ball in desperation. But if he had not kicked it and simply fell over whilst feinting the yellow would surely still be applicable but as the ball hadn't come back into play would he get a chance to take the kick again?
I believe so. In the same way that, for instance, a goal keeper can be booked after time wasting but still has a goal kick.

The guy should learn from Barnes, the penalty kick supremo.

At least the ball was kicked harder than Harley's at Millwall
The law as it is NOW, yes.
Didn't they change the law not long ago though? The vid was from 2011.
The Law has said the same thing since 2010/11.
In 2009/10 it said:
Feinting to take a penalty kick to confuse opponents is permitted as part of
football. However, if, in the opinion of the referee, the feinting is considered an
act of unsporting behaviour, the player must be cautioned.

This made me chuckle!! Taker of the worst pen I've ever seen but best free kick from 35yds!
