Maybe a phidippus audax ??? cos they have a big whitish dot on their abdomens like the spider in the vid.

Only using goolge, but i would guess thats right.
its from north america, and i think i noticed the spider in the vid had some green irridescence from the chelicerae. though i didnt really bother to watch, lol sry!
Also sounds logical, being a hunting spider, it was just hunting in the wrong place by the sounds of it, lol
