You can see it very nicely on Google Maps with five frigates and the fleet tanker \"Almirante Montt\" (ex US Navy Emperor class \"Andrew J. Higgins\") at the berth, which is also shown in the video.

The ship is obviously casting off and a group of soldiers or harbour workers are just casting off the lines as the waves break over the quay wall. Some of them are swept off their feet by the water and washed up right in front of a bollard. They help themselves bravely and routinely, throwing off the last line before getting to safety.
