Looks like he caught his crank or rear axle on the safety pad

i don't think so - it looks like someone got his attention so he turned to look. If he caught his pedal, he'd be looking down and to the right to see what he snagged.

lol, I don't think he had time to look down at his pedal... obviously he looked back for some reason, and in doing so he got too close to the pad and got hung up on it, causing him to OTB. You can freeze the video and clearly see it, but thanks for the neg props.
