Interesting take. We all caused Christ to be crucified on that cross. Why? We all sinned, those sins required punishment of eternal damnation, and God would not actually punish another creature for man's sins, instead, the animals were pointing to a future sacrifice. The sacrifice of animals was under Abrahamic covenant, but Christ is of a better covenant. Remember Melchizedek, who is rarely mentioned in the Bible. He is the King of Salem (Peace), Abram tithed 10% to him, the lesser to the greater. So Abram (and thus the Abrahamic Covenant) was lesser than Melchizedek (and thus the covenant he was apart of). Melchizedek was not only King, but also a priest (you are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek). Was he Jesus in the form of a man long ago, who knows. We fall under this covenant of grace that is greater than the covenant of works under Abraham, that we could never truly follow. We have a great High Priest who never needs to offer another sacrifice, as His death on the cross was great enough to cover all transgressions. What wonderful news! The book of Hebrews is filled with such amazing passages, and reading it really helps to understand why each one of us put Jesus of Nazareth on that cross, and why it is so beautiful to the Christian today.
The YT video is only 54 seconds long by a now deceased saint. If you have not heard of RC Sproul, you will be amazed by him. I've read people who are anti-RC to get a feel for both sides. They wildly mis-represented him and made up false statements, so I have become a big fan of him (sadly, shortly before he died). He even admits that he has many faults, and in an interview said to someone trying to start a smear campaign between 2 giants in the Christian faith.
Interviewer: After that heated debate, do you think you'll see John McArthur in heaven?
R.C.'s beautiful response: No, I don't. He'll be so much closer to God than I, I won't see him.
What a response of love for a man with whom he had a heated debate with. This, this is Christianity folks.
Maybe I mistook what you meant by them. I thought you meant, we all caused Christ to take His cross, for our salvation, he came. Maybe that's not what you meant though.
Sin is transgression of the law. The law was given to Moses and there are 10 commandments. If you don't know what they are, you should do some more digging.

You probably meant to reply to someone else. What sins? Who sinned? And what was the sin?
That's something I've never understood. Do we sin when we take our first breath? Or is it our first impure thought?

We are born in sin, original sin. We are sinning daily (impure thoughts and actions).
What original sin?
Adam and Eve sinning in the garden of Eden.
