The key is Cyanoacrylate.... and then a thick gel....which is what the Gorilla Gel Glue is.

And you need this too, at least for rock work. I saw some fragger video. Fraggers were using this on zoas. Wonder how that worked out

I used to build model planes... the Radio Controlled types.... and this is an accelerant we would use for the Cyanoacrylate glue to get instant bonding. I personally wouldn't use it in a reef environment. The residual from this can't be all that good.... I have also seen the videos you mention. I just have never seen anyone use it long term....

If you use a gel... Cyanoacrylate...the thicker the better.... and you can take your time... I would avoid the accelerant.

Although the gel is much more useful, I've used the thin stuff on frags I've cut that had a very flat bottom to glue them to a plug with good luck. I've only used the thin stuff because I had alot on hand from other projects. Certainly reef safe though.
