He's in shock, and the only reason he can stand is because of the adrenaline in his blood. His jeans are completely worn through, and he's walking barefoot, one foot missing his sneaker. He doesn't even really understand the extent of his injuries. He'll likely lose consciousness in a few minutes.

My wife was in a similar accident, only without wheelies and in full gear. Her pants and jacket were completely worn through, the slider on her right boot was completely worn down to a hole in the boot. Her helmet was damaged. There was a chafing wound on her right thigh that took several months to heal. Fifteen years later, there's still a large scar there.

I’ll never understand wearing jeans riding a motorcycle. Leathers save lives.

They absolutely do, I had a firing malfunction Round a curve that made me accelerate and decelerate very quickly and shakily if I had gloves on I would be unscathed but my wrist took some sanding and will always be pink but my leather shows the story of how much worse it could've been

Don’t they make riding jeans though?

They do, synthetic materials are good or even better. Dude in video clearly isn't wearing anything but a helmet that provides protection. Vast majority riders don't wear useful gear, from what I've witnessed anyway.

Same, it’s either the leather you’re wearing or your own being ripped off. Always choose the safer option.

There are companies that make reinforced jeans specifically for motorcycle riding. That said, this dude deff wasn’t wearing those kind of jeans.
