Such a beautiful glitch happens with render distance set to higher than the game allows.
What happened: check video
What should happen: the game should fix the overwritten render distance up to limits and warn the player about possible problems.
How to reproduce: set your render distance at least double of limitations for your device and load the world; take a spyglass and zoom far away.

I think it could be as expected if you edit any game files to achieve this. The limit is there for a reason, it is to not overload the graphics card which you do here.
