I see the video embedded in your pen, but the question is — do you want to show a thumbnail or an embedded video?
To show a YouTube video’s thumbnail on your page, use any of these:
<img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/6v7W513Wj3g/0.jpg">
<img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/6v7W513Wj3g/1.jpg">
<img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/6v7W513Wj3g/2.jpg">
<img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/6v7W513Wj3g/3.jpg">
To show a YouTube video itself on your page, use this:
<iframe width="200" height="100" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/6v7W513Wj3g" frameborder="0"></iframe>
Note though, that this embed code will NOT work when you run your page straight from your hard drive (and not through a webserver). Because it will then not use http or https, it will not know how to get the YouTube video, so you’ll have to use this:
<iframe width="200" height="100" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/6v7W513Wj3g" frameborder="0"></iframe>
