I think this is the site bug.

Browser console shows the following error:

HTTP "Content-Type" of "text/plain" is not supported. Load of media resource http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/ibmwatson/assets/video/challenge2.webm failed.

This link:

In mozilla: the browser shows binaries characters, so clearly it does not knpw what do.

Google/Chromium: A green animation of a person working on tablet. No problem.

Jacques, per spec our behavior on that link is correct.  The server is clearly labeling this data as text, not video.
