I didn't watch the video (on my bad computer right now) but I think you mean edgehugging. As Snake, runt owards the edge, fastfall and then smash to the right. You need to do this really quickly, an easy was is to kind of move your analog stick in a circle towards the edge.

i admit it is a lot different with heavies... IE snake. doing it with MK or IC is super easy. you dont even have to DI back to the stage. they just fall there. it's not an edgeGUARD. by the way. its an edgehog. hugging is the term used for running up and DIing back to get the edge, but an edgehog is just being on the edge so that another character can not grab it. only edgehog during invincibility, unless facing a character with tether recovery, or they are just freefalling towards the edge.

A recent post in the forums also said that grabbing a nade and then edgehugging at the right time is great. The nade explodes during invincibility frames and you're safe.
