With the train from the airport, you filmed this while they were working on the platforms. The trains to the city usually leave from platform 1. You can also stay on the train until you get to the city center, the Hauptwache or Konstablerwache, instead of getting off at the main station, the Hauptbahnhof. Walk down the Kaiserstrasse or Munchenerstrasse instead of going through the RLD.
In the daytime, the area around the Hauptbahnhof looks much scarier than it is, but those kinds of scenes are always more offputting if you don't speak the language or know the city at all. I'd recommend to most people on a layover to ride the S-Bahn to Hauptwache -- not really a longer ride and just as easy getting back, but you come out in a much more obviously tourist-friendly part of Frankfurt. (Folks who want authentic Chinese food should definitely get out at the Hauptbahnhof, though, and walk up the Kaiserstrasse -- there are several excellent places to choose from.)
An enjoyable video. I have been to Frankfurt, and like you enjoyed sightseeing. If you visit the red light district which is opposite the station, you have to be aware what's going on around you and try and avoid eye contact with the druggies and dossers, and definitely avoid the area at night.

Thank you, Robert! Yes, I figured that the area I wondered into wasn't best to explore at night. Thank you for the tips!
THANKS A LOT.
