Arterial blood is a vivid red color and the blood is separating near the edges...beyond the pole in the direction of the body is spray and fresh wood chips all over the road...it's hard to see because the surface is dark, but the pole is damaged (about bike level).
Whomever thinks the cut is "way too clean" is on drugs...that's a horrific tear...nothing clean about that! An incident happened a few years ago in the Chicago area where a young speeding sport biker got ripped in half by a pole...probably similar to this incident...the image with the pole in the forefront of the shot is there for a reason...documentation.
It would be nice if that scene was Photoshopped, but I think it's real...

Just to add to the no visible injury theory, he has what would be multiple abrasions, however I think he bled out within seconds due to all the major vessels being torn open so they don't have the capillary seepage like normal abrasions...locations are abrasion on his right proximal forearm, abrasions to knees bilaterally, he has a huge avulsion on his left mid-thigh, then the obvious disembowelment (intestines intact holding full with feces)...the massive amount of arterial/venous blood has coagulated at the base of the upper torso and the serum is separating...he has a pretty obvious fracture to his left hand, which appears to be pole side judging from the impact mark on the pole, not to mention the spray of blood on the pavement...it takes a lot of blood to paint the pavement like that and I think is consistent to a high speed/high velocity impact with that pole...I don't see any evidence of a cable on that or any of the other poles...It must have been unbelievable to see him get torn in half in a cloud of blood and he must have been going very fast! I think he was wearing a helmet because the shots with the ambulance in it, curb side there appears to be a blue object, which might be his lid and he has some bruising under his chin.
Just my opinion, but why would that be faked by the police and how much would it cost to hire an expert to "Photoshop" or stage something like that? Just because it's gruesome and difficult to believe, doesn't mean it's impossible...
