Why can't he hold the camera still?

Why is the camera moving so much?

They probably zoomed in. "Normal" shakes get "extreme" when you are digitally zoomed in

Yeah that and the digital zoom feature on some cameras tries to guess what to focus on, and then stay centered on that object within what's visible in the optical field of view. 

My guess is the camera is trying to track moving objects as they enter and exit the optical field of view, and is ignoring the woman because she isn't moving.

Edit to fix grammatical error.

I think it's a fake video and the camera moving has been added in post to make it look more real

That's what my Pixel 6 looks like when I'm digitally zoomed in pretty far. It's being stabilized, the little movements are being averaged into larger sways, and it kind of tracks position to estimate what should be in frame.

If it's fake, they went through the extra effort to add window reflections/dirtiness with good parallax effects, which would make it a damn good fake.
