How can I open a 360 Youtube Video in the YoutubeVR app from WebVR/A-Frame

Since it is not currently possible to embed 360 youtube videos in WebVR/WebXR/A-Frame, I would like it so that when a user clicks a thumbnail, in Samsung Internet on the Gear VR for example, the YouTube 360 video will open in the Youtube VR app (provided it's installed on the user's device)

Does anyone know how I can achieve this?

This seems to work but getting it to work correctly while you're inside a webvr app might be another issue.
