I just saw a comment from YouTube, but don't know what its meaning is.

After checking the dictionary, I couldn't find a matching meaning for the above sentence.

Who can give an explanation, Thanks.

I just realized. He is not flexing on us, he is flexing on his ex wife.

From the first still image (I didn't play the video) I guess it is given in the Urban Dictionary as

Showing off your valuables in a non-humble way.

You might like to bookmark this link to OneLook so you can research your questions. I looked in Urban Dictionary first, as I guessed it was street talk but had not come across it before.

Flex can be seen as a way to show off your values or strength in something. A common expression is " to flex one´s muscles". You flex your muscles to intimidate someone somehow.

It's a metaphor transfered from flexing one's muscles to the general case of boasting and banter.
