If you drag'n'drop the URI in mpv [1], you can bypass the age restriction. Not convenient, but if you need it it's very useful.

Or use an extension to make this more convenient: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/send-to-mpv-p...

Personally, I much prefer playing all videos in an external mpv window anyway.
