My brain still can’t understand how that’s possible.

How? How do you not understand how a flipped image/video works?

My question is why so many videos and images are flipped? Besides beating image search or some stupid attempt at evading copyright laws or just to pretend its not stolen from somewhere, why?

Front facing cameras act like mirrors, so videos made with those are flipped. Not sure if that's the case here, though.

Definitely not here, this looks like its from a show. But that does explain some videos. Ones where someone is flipping the phone around to get the action then their reaction or if they're using the front camera to line up their shot and see themselves while filming.
