Understanding of Chinese tik tok video
I saw many times in Chinese tik tok this situation. One person scolded another (usually woman scolded man) and then she said some word really loud and this man fell on his knees. And in this moment some scared passerby also fell on his knees and then awkwardly stood and walked away. We heard only offscreen laughter and scene closed.
It is really funny, but I don’ t understand it.
What did the person(usually woman) say so loud? Why did another person fall on his/her knees? Why did the passerby reflectively repeat this action?
And what is the overall meaning of it?

Yes, it is funny.
At 3.39 in your video clip:
Man in yellow: Wanna hang out / drink something bro? Wife? Forget about your wife...
Woman to the man in black: ON YOUR KNEES!!
Hearing this, the man in yellow, who didn't give a shit about his wife, knelt down without second thought, and stood up immediately as he realized he was not the target of the shouting.
There comes the off-screen laughter for the man not living up to his words.
I noticed another funny thing though. A native speaker of Russian watched a Tik Tok video (Chinese) on Youtube (US) aimed at Vietnamese audience (as it is titled in Viet.)
