click on that and scroll down to "Turn Off Content Blockers" and toggle it. Then go back to your embedded youtube BUT instead of hitting the big center arrow, click the Youtube arrow on the lower right of the video. Hit it lightly or your IPhone might think you are trying to copy it. It will take you to you tube and should start playing. I just did this on the video in this thread on my iPhone and it worked.
