 This is a follow-up ticket from a discussion on slack, ticket in meta and
 associated core ticket #46986. To answer, what videos to use in unit tests
 for vimeo and youtube.

 I'll quote the meta response from @dd32 as I feel it the most appropriate
 path forward;
 > Instead of using WordPress test accounts, could we instead fall back
 onto using a video uploaded by the embed company instead?
 >
 > For example, for Vimeo, anything from `Vimeo Staff`
 https://vimeo.com/staff or the test video from
 https://player.vimeo.com/embed should be safe to use going forward. edit:
 The player embed page actually has a bunch of test videos with various
 states, such as not-embeddable, hosted by official vimeo test accounts,
 seems perfect for this use-case.
 >
 > Having official WordPress accounts for every embed platform is not going
 to be viable from a management perspective IMHO, and having accounts
 everywhere with only a single W logo video doesn't lead to a super great
 experience when it ends up in search results.
 >
 > Where WordPress does have a use for the service (Such as Youtube) using
 one of our uploads such as a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72xdCU__XCk
 release video] does make sense though.

 This ticket is to update those urls to use the youtube suggested video and
 the one from the Vimeo embed tutorial.
 Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72xdCU__XCk
 Vimeo - https://vimeo.com/76979871
