Looks like a landing gear fire. Before it gets asked, no that’s not a Boeing 737. Frontier’s fleet consists entirely of Airbus A32x aircraft.
I recently had a terrible experience flying with them (delayed flights on a last-minute trip to a funeral over Labor Day weekend) but one thing I felt better about was that it was at least not Boeing.
But there was smoke in the cabin and it sounded like the pilots were wearing masks a FL34? Electrical fire?
Someone commented on another video that they saw the Ram Air Turbine extended. So they would’ve lost power, supporting your electrical fire theory. Also it seems extending the RAT disables some safeguards, that can cause the wheels to lock and catch fire.
