This could be fake but I also could see some smaller company having this as part of their job application.
If I was any good at videos, I'd start the video with me talking in my house normally about how amazing my life was going while walking around my house and maybe slicing some meat while doing some cooking. I'd talk about graduate university, banging hot chicks, getting a new car, new place, making money off bitcoin and a whole bunch of shit. After a couple minutes, I'd add special effects where things start going blurry and it's like whoever is watching is actually on psychedelics and it's just a dream.... then I'd wake up in a hospital bed, covered in bandages from head to toe, in a cast and the doctor standing over me telling me I might never gain mobility again, then fast forward again to me in a wheelchair, deformed and handicapped in my house where I started the video with the video zooming out on me a little and then just ending the frame slowly with me just in my kitchen in the wheelchair staring across the counter.
That's about how i feel my life has gone.
While a wonderful piece of arthouse cinema, the reason they want a video is to assess your accent, speech style, sex, and skin color, without the legal ramifications of actually asking those questions.
Just check the person's LinkedIn profile if you want to discriminate. That's why it exists.
