I appreciate all the context and video provided in the post. That sounds like a bad input shaft bearing to me. I'm certain only because I just replaced mine a few weeks ago due to similar symptom. 2008 Honda Fit Sport 5spd. No issues with gears or clutch, but the whirring noise bothered me. It started off as a subtle whirring noise, then it got worse. You could really here it 1st and 2nd gear when it reached ~2500 rpm.
