That clip comes from a "news" item on Dutch television. Item was about the growing popularity of fixed gear bikes and the resulting accidents and injures. They talked with serveral hipsters from Amsterdam who bragged about "stopping the bike on a nickel" because they know how to handle a fixed gear bike. Needless to say that the above crash from that very same hipster did not add to their credibility. But he survived (the Seat did not hit him). All in all the item did not put the fixed gear scene in a favorable light since it underlined all bias against such bikes.
Yes, I managed to find the news article by googling HvNL, though it appeared the video would only work given I downloaded an application which I wasn't willing to do. If the video exists on Youtube/Vimeo etc. I'd be pleased to see it - anyone?
A big thank you Pascalo for all of the information you provided.
