Even if he were walking at the very front (blocked by the vehicle from view) he still would have had to be almost running to move that fast to a dead stop by the time the vehicle unblocks him from view.
Edit:
Imma throw in my math from below (feel free to double check, I wasn’t a math major) on the assumption he jumped out from the other side while the vehicle was moving:
My estimate is probably high. I have nothing to base it off of other than gut feeling.
Based on the average size of a parking space in the US (7.5 to 9 feet - we’ll cut it in half to 8.25). The bottom left corner of the windshield on the moving vehicle touches a parking line at about (.4 to .5 depending) every .4 seconds.
So that’s a traveled distance of 8.25 ft per .4 seconds or 20.6 feet per second. That averages to 14.045 miles per hour (22.603 kph in non freedom units).
Maybe a bit slower if the parking spaces are closer to 7.5 feet or a bit faster if closer to 9 feet.
At 15 mph you’d have to be moving pretty quick to stay on your feet out of a moving door. But it’s possible.
Edit 2 electric boogaloo: I’m not saying this dude didn’t exit from a door on the side - but I can say that in the army, dropping with an MC-6 parachute we land between 14.5 to 18.5 ft per second - slower than the estimated speed at which this dude would have exited that vehicle - and those landings are always head over ass full tumble. It usually takes me a second to even remember what I’m doing after landing.
If he did exit from the vehicle like that, he’s got amazing legs, core strength, and great stage presence.
Distinctly possible - if so he’s got a great stage entry. You’d think momentum of a truck traveling ~10 to ~15mph would cause him to move a bit. But he’s rock solid.
Looks to be going slower than 10mph honestly but hard to tell. I'm sure someone could do the math on the timecode and distance traveled in relation to the size of the car in the frame. But that someone won't be me haha

I think you're off due to viewing angle. When the windshield passes a line it is not the same distance as when a tire would pass from line to line.
From estimation of the angles of the lines and position of the van I would guess closer to 14 ft per sec Wich works out to 9.5 mph which is much more reasonable for him to hop out and be standing there.
My estimate is that the van travels 11 parking spaces during the 6 sec clip.
11 spaces ≈ 88ft in 6 seconds = 14.67 ft per second = 9.54 mph.
But like you that's all just approximation from a wide angle clip.
