I kinda hate this video and I think you are having the same reaction I am. Yes, they are stealing a bike and that sucks but shocking them once they are riding the bike? Dangerous (could cause a bad accident) and painful payback for leaving a bike unlocked and waiting for someone to take it. It bummed me out when it cropped up all over my FB newsfeed. Sad.

I don't like bike thiefs, but I cringed when I watched this. Someone getting seriously hurt isn't funny.

These "prankster doods" are utter cretins.  However, declaring the bike thieves are "people that can't afford a bike" is giving them a pass (and not necessarily true either.)
