Exactly. I've had debris get into the fan 'tunnel' area in many of my cars. It makes the sound I hear in your video. Stuff comes into the air vents below the windshield, under the hood, then they get stuck in the area around the fan blades and make a racket. Sometimes they rot and blow past but quite often they just sit there and make noise.
I've not had the problem yet. Whenever I open my hood I always check the vent grill area and clean it up. I'm not sure how much you can see/feel when you take the filter out but you need to reach the fan blade area. Wouldn't hurt to check that grill - vent air intake area either.
