I hope he reported him.

Crazy.

I hate these context free videos. Did it happen last week/last month/last year? Were the police contacted?
That wasn't posted by the person who recorded it, just bike-focus viral company on FB.

Anyone know the original source?

The company now has 7 one-star reviews on Google

Is it real, or an episode of Some Mothers Do 'ave 'em?

The cyclist didn't appear to check for following traffic before pulling back on to the road, did he know that the camera operator would be holding back?

It came up on my FaceBook feed via a friend, they do have a Facebook page.

Probably wasn't thinking that clearly at all, consider a second before he probably thought he was about to die.

And I would hope any any vehicle who was following would treat another road user being pushed off the road as an opportunity to overtake them.

Yeah, that's just an accumulator of likes.

I've found the video on youtube (following a link on FB), but youtube says "This video is unlisted. Be considerate and think twice before sharing."

What do you think. Should I share?

That happened to me when I pulled over for an ambulance

And they beeped

Edit, I was in a car

Tin hat at the ready - curious as to why the rider is so far in the middle of the road. White vans in the town where I work don't take any prisoners

I was thinking the same !

Double white line so council had decided it was too dangerous to allow overtaking. Rider most likely took primary to avoid illegal overtaking.

Really? Double whites, oncoming traffic. Taking primary to protect himself. You will notice that he starts moving over to a decent secondary position when the solid white is single and for the oncoming traffic to note. I'd have done the same. Van driver is a tosser and should be reported.
