Now the question is, did the bike dump because he locked the back tire and it snapped back when he released or did he just over compensate?

Found this while stumbling around youtube looking at bike vids, not sure what it is from but I got a kick out of it.

I'm going to guess total loss of control from skidding rear tire. He did the right thing though and didn't let off, which as you said could snap you into a high side. Remember class, low sides hurt less. Though he should have been watching the road a leeetle bit more
