In this answer, it was shown that the product of two i.i.d. standard normal r.v.s is not normally distributed. What if we scale one of them? In other words, if $X, Y \text{ i.i.d } \sim N(0, 1)$, what is the distribution of $Z := X\frac{Y}{|Y|}$? By looking at he distribution function of $Z$ (though I didn't finish the calculation), $Z$ is unlikely to be normal. However, the simulation seems to suggest that $Z$ is normal (the QQ plot of $10,000$ realizations of $Z$ is shown below). Is there a clever way to prove or disprove $Z$ is normally distributed?
