It seems intentional to me. The low frame-rate strobe happens before the drop, I’m guessing to emphasize the beat visually while the 4x4 has stopped.
Also, Youtube doesn’t do variable framerates, so I’m guessing this was originally produced with multiple framerates and they had to lock the output to 30fps when it was exported for upload, which means they probably needed to have some kind of frame interpolation and that can get nasty…
Although really, I’m not a video production guy. I’m a codec and formats guy.
Also, I’d like to take a moment to gush over the choice of the Croc guys. It’s like… The perfect species for getting across lecherous ogling. Also they’re wearing Izod Lacoste shirts, which is a great little detail.
