It can happen, leaned over or not, tire just breaks loose. Of course I bet his tires probably weren't in the best of shape either. Don't rule out oil, sand, etc...

oh SHIT! I went out on cold tires two nights ago and gave it too much gas coming off of my street, and boy did I straighten up quick. I knew the tires were cold, but I didn't think it would react that way. The rear tire did sort of a rolling burnout and then it caught and I fishtailed back and forth, luckily recovering and not laying it down. I didn't do it intentionally--just need to remember to warm them up slowly and easy, and most important give it time. I wasn't trying to light the tire up.

He's just cruising along at a very easy pace thru the turn with the bike barely leaned over, then the rear loses it for a quick second and regains traction again. I couldn't spot anything visible on the road at the exact point of when the rear lost traction, maybe it was gravel like you said. Seems his lack of experience got the worst of him.
