As Andrew says above ... why let go ? I'd be holding on VERY TIGHT (and probably leaving an involuntary exhaust mark in the sky!)
Why did he let go?
I think he knew at some point he was at the wrong angle, then decided he would be better landing in a "try to tuck and roll" move than hitting the deck with a bike between his legs and dropped his grip.

That's never going to be one of life's better moments, is it!Yep he knows that he's going too fast and will overshoot the landing ramp so decides to crash without the bike getting in teh way.
Fear was created for a reason!![]()
Check the helmet cam footage.
