Youtube - Full screen is unavailable

The problem is that I can not play YouTube movies in fullscreen. I am getting the following error: "Full screen is unavailable" (https://gyazo.com/159b3f51db4bb643e6ef10854b18ddd0, see screenshot)

I've tried it in multiple browsers and only one of them is working:

The rest of the internet browsers is not working:

Why is it working in an older Internet Explorer and all new browsers are not?

Also "allowfullscreen" is getting removed when I save in my editor and parameters like "allowfullscreen="true"" are also not working.

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Gl7ABg9lnBM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I really don't know what is causing the problem so I hope you guys can help me out!

this worked for me, because we are using React, so not sure if this helps: simply change allowfullscreen to allowFullScreen with uppercase "F" and "S". now works in all browsers.
