Looks like a steeper version the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland.

"A bubble in the swamp" explains the rock formations:

This is called "columnar jointing". The "facets" are shrinkage cracks as the molten lava slowly cools. The columns are straight if the surface of the molten lava is a plane, but can be bent if the lava erupts in the form of a dome, or encounters some solid obstacle that is cool.

It's not crystals, because the gross pattern is not repeated at an atomic scale inside the columns. The process is more akin to the formation of mud cracks in a drying pond. The columns are not regular hexagons; they are a hodge-podge of shapes that averages out to hexagons, but no two columns are identical in size and shape.

I kinda wonder what the guy with the camera was doing during that last vid, TBH....
