I would also highly recommend checking out Mentour Pilot channel on youtube as she is the writer for some episodes. Accident videos there have interesting technical details.

I've watched some but I really hate watching videos. And I found that the videos she scripted basically follow the same flow as her corresponding article. So it felt like I'd already watched it.

If you like videos I'm sure they're great but if you love the writeup, you're not missing anything by skipping the videos IMO.

Ps I hate mentour pilot's clickbaity thumbnails so much. That alone puts me off from watching it too. But lately I use "DeArrow" which desensationalises all the thumbnails and even titles. That helps a lot. Mentour pilot is not alone in this, a lot of youtubers do it, but he sensationalises the severity of an aviation crash by going like "whoa kaboom!". Which is what I object to. Usually people died there and lots of them. It's strange because the actual videos have none of that.
