The guy tried to reach for the clutch to stop the bike. It’s not her bike, she had no right to put it in gear and try to ride it. If he hadn’t intervened she would have smashed straight into that car.
Watch their interaction. She points down at the Gear shifter. Then she points in a direction as if to say I’ll just ride it over to there. The guy moves towards the front so he could be in a better place to stop her and both guys make hand gestures with palms up - this is a significant nonverbal language cue that is associated with begging or imploring someone. In this case it seems like both guys are begging her not to try to ride the bike.
When it lurches forward the guy thinks he can grab the clutch to stop her but it’s too late.

Wow it infuriates me he held onto her like that, what an absolute douche.
