You have a busted output shaft!
In the video you can see the wheel spinning, when the shaft isn't moving.
Can't really tell if it's on the shaft side only or if the output shaft flange is also moving out of the differential.

Take out the shaft, rebuild it or replace it, take it apart anyway so you can familiarize yourself with the inner workings of your car.

Have you pulled the diff out of the pumpkin and examined the ring and pinion gears?
Have you isolated the problem to the diff or axles etc.? Disconnect the output shafts and see if it still happens.
