Without seeing the input values, Im guessing it is the limitation of datediff with seconds that is throwing this error.

Read in BOL:

"DATEDIFF produces an error if the result is out of range for integer values. For milliseconds, the maximum number is 24 days, 20 hours, 31 minutes and 23.647 seconds. For seconds, the maximum number is 68 years."
