The pedestrian saw the white car fairly far away and walked into the intersection with that big-assed truck nearly right in front of them. They "reacted much more dramatically" because, some how, they were surprised by the big truck.
I'm guessing the cycle/pedestrian crossing light was red with the white car and turned green/white and both the cyclist and pedestrian just weren't really looking. The pedestrian managed to look in time. The cyclist, even though they had ample time to see the truck and stop, blundered ahead.
