To be clear, the first variation is not a "bad" triceps exercise and it will still build triceps effectively. If you enjoy doing it during arm workouts and it feels comfortable then go ahead. But try doing an overhead triceps extension using a full range of motion without any weight and you'll see that the natural path for your triceps is to extend away from the midline of your body in a circular motion. If you're using a single dumbbell with both hands then the resistance is locked onto a fixed vertical line.
Probably not gonna make a huge difference in the long term grand scheme of things, but if you do want to fully optimize the movement then ideally perform it one arm at a time. There are several different ways this can be done - I'm just showing the most basic version in the video to give a clear comparison. There are also leaning variations you can use to improve the resistance profile a bit - I'll try to show that in another post. If you have access to cables though then that'll be your best overall bet since you'll get a greater amount of resistance through the entire range. Whatever version you do go with for this arm exercise, just make sure that you're incorporating a slight elbow flare (rather than tucking the elbow in tightly) and extending into the scapular plane to build bigger triceps as effectively as possible
