Is this too loud for headphones? Audiophile needed?

Hello, I would like to know if this is too loud for headphones to the point where it could be damaging to the headphones. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1wUy4PQhaE

    Well, you'll definitely burn them in, get a lot more bass and mid tones as your treble gets quieter and quieter. This happens on all headphones but loud music can accelerate the damage. I am by no means a registered, professional audiophile who went to school for YEARS learning about the softening of platter materials, but I can deduce that it will cause some accelerated listen and wear damage.
