Door stacks, AKA "the gates of hell"
The top one appears to have been modified; the second is apparently a more conventional (?) recruitment (?) video. There is a compilation of them here, filmed with the annoying vertical format, a discussion of them at Reddit, and some explanatory notes at Atlas Obscura and at Neatorama.

It's not very often that I'm left speechless, but this topic just....
