I know this is extremely narrow but I think there's something in it: the way he says "I'm over the mountains and I have a [fricking] engine out" sets off my Spidey sense.
This appears to justify the need to jump before pointing out the problem. That's not your reaction in an emergency. If you're making YouTube content then surely you want to show the sheer terror that you faced, not the calm justification for your bailing out.
The problem is that your engine is out. Your response is supposed to be "[Frick], my engine is out and I can't see anywhere to land - this is concerning". Not "I'm over the mountains and my engine is out" suggesting that there is only one outcome.
I don't know much about aviation, but his language and attitude throughout the video suggests to me that he's prepped to ditch the plane. I'm running off gut instinct here but it's always served me pretty well.
