It would be better to post a clip of your own.

On this one the belt / pump bearing / alternator bearing squeal is masking the important sound but it does have the typical thump of big end bearing failure.

Not something to be ignored or postponed. It's a very short step from worn bearing shells to failure and a wrecked crankshaft.
