Flash is adobe product and they don't provide binaries for FreeBSD, at
least they didn't.
if you really need flash, you may install gnash from ports. not fully
capable but usually works, and doesn't need linux emulator and closed
source code.
Flash it not a standard. If you want flash mostly to view youtube use
youtube-dl from ports.
xpi-unplug plugin for firefox (also in ports) often helps with pages that
have movies embedded with player.
The side effect of using both tools would be having all movies actually
downloaded - so you will actually HAVE that movies.
downloaded movies play fine with mplayer.
