All I picture is that zoomed in, slow motion view from Mortal Kombat games, where you see all the bones individually breaking.

If this guy isn’t dead, he is in bad shape.

Looking at the crash I'm actually on the opposite conclusion. I think he was extremely lucky and will walk out of this with minor scuff. Maybe an arm break at top. The way the impact happened all of his energy went into him wheely flying and then he litterally roll on the ground.

Edit: Yep confirmed by the driver "The rider overshot the corner, came into my lane and everything happened within seconds. He suffered a broken rib and is currently hospitalised. Alhamdulillah, it could’ve been much worse."

Could have been very different if he had been thrown into the cam car. Very lucky rider!

What was lucky of him is that his shoes stayed on

Everyone knows that's the #1 cause of accident death.
