I just tried embedding a vimeo video and it doesn’t seem to work - what’s the URL to grab and put on its own line?

Youtube works:

Vimeo does not:

Odd, this used to work, can you check the oneboxer for this case @techapj?

This happens because the video you’ve linked to cannot be embedded.

The oembed file for this video returns only a `403 Forbidden` error and if you try to embed the player as an iframe, it says this:
