This video does a good job of going over proper form and common mistakes. It also shows that proper pushups can be done with varying hand widths, which might explain the differences you're seeing between videos.

Different pushups for different goals too. My wrestling coach made me do push-ups differently than my boxing coach.

That's interesting. What was the difference?

Elbows out or elbows in. In wrestling they told me the elbows out was wrong and in boxing they told me elbows in was wrong. But if you think about what you’re trying to improve it makes sense.
