As far as I could test, few firefox extensions can download that
specific video as well.

You are correct. I found for firefox Video Downloader Professional and 
it works extremely well.

I've also discovered that (ignoring flash), Firefox lets you control-click on a 
playing video and the context menu has "Save Video as...", very handy.

I have youtube-dl-2017.08.13-1.fc25.noarch and it started to download 
it.  I didn't finish the download as it was 1GB, but I was able to play 
the part I downloaded.
