Super-cool Fairlight CMI video on YouTube

This is a tiny, one minute long clip of someone using the 'Page R' sequencer in a Fairlight. Lots of keyboard clacking, then a very long gap as the floppy drive searches, then a cruddy-sounding sequence. Magic! More on Page R here.

Does anyone else have an issue with YouTube where it loads about 5 seconds of clip then stops? Whether it's an imbedded clip or I go to the website itself, no matter how many times I refresh it. I get 10 seconds tops. It ruins the majesty that is YouTube. Any ideas?
