Is their a link to just download that video?

i don't have one. but if you put that link into your mediaplayer of choice, it will stream it.
there's a higher bandwidth streaming version on the xprize.org site of course.

There are also streaming video rippers out there if you really want the video that bad. Use google to find them though.
