A Driver Turned And Couldn't See. Then A Motorcyce Ended Up Dangling From A Traffic Light Pole

I'll be honest, when I first came across this post, I thought it was some AI BS. That stuff is flooding the internet lately, and it has all the hallmarks of being computer-generated lies. But as the post gained traction and folks started looking into it, it suddenly became clear that the motorcycle dangling from a traffic light pole was, in fact, actually dangling from a traffic light pole. 

But how the hell did it get up there? How do you launch a 400-pound Suzuki into the air with enough force to fly 30-plus feet, but manage to snag the pole's horizontal bar, and "catch" the motorcycle without it all collapsing in on itself? Moreover, JUST HOW?

Well, physics, obviously. But also, it seems as if an inattentive driver was the cause of the insane crash, as is wont to happen, and thankfully, the rider of the motorcycle will be OK. The motorcycle, however, well, that might still be up the traffic light pole, as I'm not even sure how you'd get it down?
