Our warning page says so (bullet c):

Some videos actually work after this.

I did not know about this. It's a lot better to remove the "v" variable and
use /embed/VideoID instead of joining the html5 test because it will make
every video play.

For example:

This video won't play even if you join the html5 test page.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjK1lUA6mGk

but using embed it will work:
