A salutary warning for the hot weather...

I'd agree. He seems to be trying to get his knee down, but he and the bike are leaning virtually at the same angle and he doesn't seem to be shifting his bum over to keep the centre of gravity down and the bike more upright. Probably he was caught by surprise when he grounded the peg, felt the bike move, grabbed the brakes and just went straight on Sad

As for the guy in the background, I think he also tries to anchor up and also goes straight on then skids on the grass.

Absolutely.
