When I clicked on the second one, I got a message "Sign in to confirm you're not a bot. This helps protect our community."
In this case, "our community" is You Tube.
First and third clips play just fine.
Is it just me, or are other DUers getting the same message?

In fact, one of them wrote to me about it. It's never happened to me, so all I could do was recommend DU Community Help to her. I just looked through and I didn't see that question on the front page, but I have heard that several times before. I'm sorry, it makes no sense if you could see the other videos.
