Wobble head is certainly bad. I've had spider balls with "wobble heads" to the point they had to be euthanized. It's a disease with a large spectrum, some show no signs of it as babies, then develop it, others seem to "grow out of it," some have it so badly they can not do anything close to normal locomotion, and still others will barely do it a time or two then never show a sign. And animals that have never shown a symptom can have babies that do, and vice versa, so it might not be possible to ever breed the mutation 100% wobble head free.
From the video, if your corn has a similar neurological condition, it is very minor. Interesting that WP mentioned her green snake. My keeled greensnakes did it quite a bit, I suspect arboreal snakes are adapting a behavior that resembles a limb in a breeze -whenever they would crawl from shrub to shrub, it was done so in a series of "sways" like that. Whether that is what is happening with your corn or not, is anyone's guess. I wouldn't be worried, but keep an eye on it for any change.
