[updated] How to share your Facebook videos with anyone

UPDATE: During 2016, Facebook changed the video player interface and moved the video link. But fear not, it's still shareable with non-FB friends and contacts.

All you do now is right-click on the video panel

To activate the menu, right click anywhere on the video panel.
And the new menu will appear. Copy the link from the box.

The new link box will appear and just copy the direct URL

Below is the original post from 2015 >>


A little known and under-used feature of Facebook is the ability to share a link from your uploaded videos to anyone on the net, even if they don't have a Facebook account.

Here's a quick-and-dirty how-to. I'm assuming you already know how to upload a video and where to find it afterwards.

TIP:
You can click any image to enlarge.

The link can be found in the 'Options' menu, not 'Share'.

The 'Options' menu will present a 'Get Link' option

A link will appear that lets you share with anyone, whether on Facebook or not.
You can paste this link into an email or hotlink your HTML on a web page. Easy.
