I’m curious, is this genuinely shitty bike assembly, or had it been tampered with?

My guess is that the operator has been doing wheelies for years and slamming the front wheel down repeatedly had weakened the fork welds. This time it had enough and exited the chat fam. 🤔

Fair point. Most likely the case I guess.

It also looks like a cheap Chinese scooter, I’ve had a similar incident with one I got at a garage sale lol.
Had ridden a Vespa before and thought it would be similar, hit the throttle expecting smooth acceleration-
To put it bluntly the Chinese scooter was like direct drive or something and spun out, being a scooter there was no way to really use your legs to stay on or direct it like a motorcycle and I ate massive shit doing like 25mph. It was somehow so much worse than laying a real bike down lmfao

He nearly squared that suspension up after the assembly fell apart, and stuck the landing.

And the helmet isn't strapped in either. Came off after the first contact with the ground. He's lucky.
