Nothing looks obviously wrong, but you don't look very comfortable. It looks as though your upper body is just flopped over the top tube, like you really need your arms for support. Is it possible for you to bend more from the hips and straighten (extend) the back? See the way you extend when you get out of the saddle, just before the video ends? I'd like to see how that back looks in the saddle, if you can do it. That would have the effect of bringing the handlebar in closer to your shoulders and straightening the spine from the shoulders up. It should also position the lower back muscles to better support the torso.
