Yep, though to be fair, his bike had toe clips/cages which are notoriously hard to get out of if you’re not used to them. I wonder if that was his main bike, or if he switches sometimes and forgot because of the photo op. Plenty of young people fall because of toe clips and that’s probably why they’re mostly passé.
I did it once when I was about 21/22 in the middle of a (deserted) road. Embarrassing but I reassured myself that it wasn't dumb.
