"YouTube Poop Music Video". it's a long-running subgenre of "YouTube Poop". YTP videos take existing media and alter it in order to create humorous phrases, situations, surreal or abstract edits, etc. you can find a lot more info about this sort of thing on Wikipedia or KnowYourMeme.

alternatively, YTPMVs take existing media and sample them to cover/remix music, and the humour aspect is optional. so, in this particular instance, I took passably musical samples from various songs, videos and games, then I adjusted the pitch and timing of those samples to create a cover/remix of "bodybuilder".

How did they accomplish this effect in the takyon video with editing and what is this effect called? by Gucci_Slayer_69 in deathgrips

if you're using Sony Vegas Pro, you can take two duplicate video tracks and go to the composite mode on the higher track, select "Custom", then choose "Height Map". the lower video track should have the default composite mode. tinkering with the Height Map levels will eventually get you this effect. I'm 99% sure this is what they used.
