Squat form!
Side view was the best I could do, ill repost a better angle around the 8-9th but id still like comments on the video ive got so far
obvious mistakes:
- dropped it way too fast first rep, wasn't focused on controlling it on way down
- didnt go deep enough last rep
this was my last set of 5x5, 60kg

A coach wants to see your hands, wrists, shoulders, hips, knees, back and feet. This video shows very little of that.
Even with this video and even not being a coach, I can tell you are rounding your back. You should reduce weight to something less likely to injure you until you fix this. Reread the squat section of the starting strength book.
Do another video from 45 degrees rear, that shows your whole body from shoulders to feet, and use 25% less weight.

I'm not trying to be mean, so don't take it that way...
but what you are doing is dangerous. You have literally no control over your back whatsoever--lower or upper--at any point in the lift. Struggling to hit a rep with no back extension is a recipe for an injury.
First, watch this video:

Second, re-read the squat chapter.
When you learn how to control your back, start over again with significantly less weight and post again.
