The most common way to block is by looking up your IP address and finding the Geo Location. So the simple way around this is to use a proxy server. There are other ways but they are not very common. I cant play the Video either, i have used an American Proxy server and still cant load it, but i can load every other video on the website. All it says is Buffering, which makes me think that maybe there is a server or video error.
