it's at grocery store that's also a deli. the only thing that comes to mind is someone emptying the fryers without letting the oil cool off

That looks like too much fire for cooking oil, man.
Then again, I never saw a bucket full of cooking oil catch fire.

oil can catch fire but that's only at a really high temperature. higher than anything you'd be deep frying. but hot cooking oil will ignite anything it touches
i've got some experience with commercial deep fryers. vegetable oil comes in those 16 liter/4 gallon buckets. when it's time to clean a fryer. you open the release valve, empty out the oil into a bucket. you close the release valve and then pour water into the deep fryer to start cleaning. if you forget to close the release valve, the water you pour into the fryer ends up in the bucket of hot oil. that's more likely whats going on in the video
