With gas on and letting the clutch go will spin up the back wheel causing it to start to lowside. Still target fixating rider puts foot down as a atempt to regain control. Seen this same thing at lower speeds teaching the beginner rider course. Fortunitly it's at low enough speeds where a crash seldom happens.
Was gonna say something along the lines. If you look the vid he is squeezing the clutch....He may have throttled it and let go of the clutch too fast causing the tire to buckle, from there the rest is history. I remember i did that once that's why I was gonna probably suggest it. I held clutch in and rolled on the throttle a tad and dropped the clutch by accident causing my back tire to fish tail. Good Call SD...
