Why am I hitting the hosel of my irons into the ground?

Rather confusing video. Nothing regarding where on the ball to hit. Ball position dictated by eye line? Relative to front foot or eye line? I’ll try dropping a ball and see. I think it’s too far back as my line is consistently to the left of the hole. I’m lefty. Oh well.
