I wouldn’t call it unnatural, you get to a decent top position. I think how you get there may be what’s different. Very inside takeaway, I think if you worked on taking it back up the plane, your swing would look less “unnatural”
I am by no means a coach or someone who I would take a lot of advice from, just an observation.

You’re starting your downswing with your upper body and a sharp pull of the handle. Hence steep downswing and standing up to make contact.

You have an inside takeaway and for whatever reason watch the club go back. Keep your eyes to the ball.

Stick your trail hand out for a handshake (thumb up), with a very flat hand. Bend your wrist (keeping hand flat), in the direction of your palm. Then the opposite. This is the movement feel of the wrist in the swing.
It looks as if you would be bending yours up and down, thumb to pinky. Similar to a handshake motion.
First half of this video has a pretty good explanation
To be ultra efficient, you need mobility in the hands. Feel the strength of your grip in the forearms, but not hands, not clenching with your fingers.
Some random dude on the internet breaks walnuts while holding a raw egg and keeping it from cracking. Great (but extreme) example of very high grip strength, with minimal grip pressure.

Reverse spine angle?

Inside takeaway and not getting into your trail leg. Put your belt buckle over your right ankle in the backswing. You’re rotating around your spine and you look like your spine angle leans into the ball at the top of the backswing. Fix the backswing and you’ll feel more athletic and powerful at impact. You have a similar swing fault to mine. This is what I work on. 10 index. For reference.

Your backswing and top of swing position is fine. You stand up and EE through the ball which is why it looks off.
