Maybe it's only accessible to Canuck IP's?

It doesn't work on this Dutch Koala.

Re: What do I need to see it?

The page has three rendering errors:
1) in their "library.css" style sheet:

.pagination a.disabled {
cursor:default;
opacity:0.3;
/*ie hack*/
filter:alpha(opacity = 30);
zoom:1;
/*end ie hack*/
}

2) same function, but on the "zoom:1;" line

"filter" and "zoom" are not defined in the style sheet so they are dropped.

3) In the URL itself:

Warning: Expected ':' but found 'undefined'. Declaration dropped.

The first and second errors suggest that the code is mis-identifying the FireFox browser as IE, but switching the FF browser agent to IE is even worse.

So, my first thought is that the URL is fashioned in such a way that IE ignores the error but FF doesn't I don't have access to IE to test this hypothesis. I noticed that Google's Chrome browser cannot play the video either. BTW, Chrome is nothing to write home about.
