YouTube I can watch embedded videos but not direct

[the dark side]

sounds to me like the school server censorship block, wich are often pretty crazily programmed, i remember the one at my old high school. now, bear in mind, this is the united kingdom where semi and fully automatic firearm ownership is 100% illegal for non police and military personell, the server block wouldnt allow you onto BMW (makes cars), but would allow you onto H&K (who make semi and fully automatic firearms)... failure of logic anyone?
