It's not the staff's fault, it's the embedder's fault. They used a mobile YT link. The YouTube embed only works with standard links.

What a sad way to go. At least it wasn't cancer and likely didn't suffer long. Got a kick out of his villainous role in The Phantom. He was one of the film's highlights. His Substitute sequels were all guilty pleasures.
