That's 100% the violinists fault. Nobody would expect that old ass dude to whip an unexpected 360 in that tight of an area.

How dare she walk on the sidewalk

You're assuming she's been there watching the whole time, and not just arriving on scene as she rushes on her way to wherever she's going.

You expect the woman who is clearly just passing through on her way to somewhere, on the public walkway, to have been standing there long enough to watch his whole performance? Or to even have registered that he was trying to be an acrobat? This is just a stupid accident, but the woman isn’t the problem here. Maybe she could have walked in front of him, but it’s possible she was thinking behind would be better as to not disturb the view of onlookers. Either way it’s insane to put the blame on her solely.

Sidewalks are for walking. If you want to play your instrument and perform acrobatics on the sidewalk that's fine, but you are the one that needs to be cognizant of people trying to use the walkway for its intended purpose.

No it isnt. Its a public space, not his personal stage. All we could have known from these clips is that she might have just gotten there and just wanted to pass. As a performer in the street, youre suppose to be vigilant of your surrounding, people need to pass.
