The software GIMP failed to load large gif. When I loaded the gif in GIMP, most of the frames became transparent/nothing. The number of frames is 1905

What happened? How can I fix this?
I am using a Windows 10 laptop.
By the way, this below is the link to the video:

Please help me.

Difficult to tell from the video. Possibly the gif is optimised and the background removed from most of the frames. You can see the mode is combine.

Try Filters -> Animation -> Unoptimise

Agreed... However the image is quite big and there are many frames, so the OP is in for looooooong processing times unless s/he has RAM to spare.
