    Looks like an oh-shit moment to me. I did something similar recently.. very different ending.

    Rider inattention, you can see the light changing and the car ahead starting to brake while he has PLENTY of time to react.

    I don't see anything that would imply faked to me.

    Re: Poor form

    what part isnt real?
    the light chages yellow and the car in front stops, he avoids by splitting cars. the guy pulling the u turn obviously never sees him because at that point in the turn he is looking left otherwise im sure he wouldve hit the brakes and the ending wouldve been different. he threads the needle and continues on.

    running on pure instinct

    Fixed. What I don't understand is why he cranks the throttle in a couple places.

    He is soo lucky if this is real. He made all the right moves after the really big mistake of not paying attention. He only has 6 lives left so he better be more careful next time.

    I don't know, with as many videos we see of people eating shit in this situation, one has to make is through occasionally. Maybe it was just his lucky day.

    Re: Poor form

    Did he even hit the brakes? I can see and hear it decelerating, but it sounds like it is strictly engine braking the entire time. I think I see a 37, then a 25 just before splitting the cars. I see his finger tap the front very briefly but it's almost like he just gave up and decided to commit to the split.

    The car in front of him does look like it stopped fairly quickly. At ~30-35mph, they started braking for the light roughly the length of the building beside them.

    Slowing down wouldn't have helped
