@04:20 - looks like some kind of special technique, he says in the video that's how you would get the most amount of stimulus on your triceps ???

The special technique part is bullshit. That's just how you end up doing pushdowns if you've gone way too heavy with the weight stack. At best that movement is just an okay substitute for close grip bench.

Good way to bleed to death if the cable/equipment fails and the snap nicks the artery in your neck.
