Including external linked Javascript in Wordpress

Question

I want to include an externally hosted function/video player on a wordpress page with little to nothing else on it. The function is developed and hosted by an external provider so I have no control over it. They have provided me with the following code and instructed me to copy and paste into the page, but this doesn't work.

Unfortunately I don't have any working knowledge of JS. Is someone able to help as to what I need to do. Do I need to edit some functions.php or should it be able to work as a one off post?

I can see your code in the page source of the page provided in the link. It is commented out due to the default formatting behaviour of wordpress.

To make it work, open the editor, Remove any previous edits for that particular page and try pasting this code in Text mode of the Editor, not in the Visual mode.

After that save it and it will start working.
