This is not a video, but a photo similar to what you are talking about
This is their statement
"This test simply demonstrates the superior strength and stiffness of our Hi-Rib™ panel when compared with 29 gauge full hard panels that are typically standard in the industry. The test uses supports spaced 7.5 ft. apart, loading the panels at third-points as shown.

Steel panels used by many other builders are formed from 29 gauge, full hard steel, which has a higher tensile strength. But, with Morton’s higher rib height and thicker gauge, our Hi-Rib™ panels are stronger. In fact, Morton’s panels have rib height up to 33% higher and steel thickness that is up to 25% thicker than panels used by other builders.

Morton Hi-Rib™ panels are better looking on your building. Because of the rounded profile, the ribs reflect sunlight from various angles. Stronger and aesthetically pleasing—what a winning combination!"
