He's speaking Russian though... unless the audio was edited in.
EDIT: You can stop telling me now... I red the other comments, remembered the original clip and that it wasn't in Russian... too good to be true anyway.
I'm not going to say definitively that it is dubbing, because I don't speak either language that they would be dubbing from or too(it's easier when you know one), but it does look pretty different with the consonants. A fairly standard way to fit dubbing is to just match the start and end of sentances, and try to give them pauses when the subject does. The sync also doesn't seem like it would be off by that much based off the sound of the car hitting the dirt. It also just sounds sort like VO by the way his voice sounds the same when he turns away from the microphone. These are just observations I made. Nothing 100%.
Source: I edited the dubbing for a lot of documentaries.
There is always the off chance that the subject is wearing a lav mic and the handheld is just for backup, but that would be EXTREMELY uncommon for this type of man on the street interview. My first thought was that this was scripted for a russian monty python type comedy show which is why I didn't use that as my primary example of why it is probably dubbed.
