I didn't watch the entire video, but based on the 30 seconds or so after the crash that I saw that guy definitely has a head injury and should not be riding.

I base that on my own crash and head injury experience.

Now what can you do? Tough call, if it was a friend of mine I would have taken the keys and told him no way he was riding the bike. Random stranger, that's a problem taking his stuff. IN the video from what I saw several people were trying to convince him not to get on the bike. While the right thing to do would be hold him down until the paramedics get there, I don't think you can legally do that.

Another possibility, that I have encountered on the road is that his blood sugar was off (and that's why he crashed). A diabetic with low blood sugar act disoriented and almost drunk.
