When did they start putting 1 minute commercials on youtube? They used to appear for a few seconds and then you could click a box to skip whatever else may remain in it.
Ad blockers work for websites, but I believe ads in youtube videos are embedded in the video, so you are stuck watching the whole thing, like in this case, or given the opportunity to click out after a few seconds.
You can also try the brave browser. I use it on my phone & computer and I never get YouTube ads. I like it better than chrome/Firefox/ whatever other globohomo browsers and apps.

You know adblockers exist, right?

Try adblock plus. I never see an ad in a YT video on my home computers. I don't know if it works on phones because I've never tried it.
I just turn off the sound and start scanning the comments.
Are you using a computer or a phone?
If a phone, Apple or Android?
On PC, uBlock Origin and Sponsor Block are both still working for me.
ublock origin blocks youtube ads

Those guys don't look like the Maori's I've seen in the past.
