Do you have a good and fully charged battery? Are the battery cables /ground strap clean and tight? The starter sounds slow to me but should be on the edge of starting the engine if there is no air in fuel with good injectors and good compression. I also hear a rhythmic dip in cranking rpm. Anyone else hear that and what's causing it?
