First, use this code to Website > Website Tools > Code Injection > Footer 

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.7.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
    $('.fe-block a:contains("clickable")').addClass('text-click');
});
</script>

Next, use this code to Website Tools > Custom CSS 

a.text-click {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    color: transparent !important;
}

Next, add a Text Block cover whole Video Block with text clickable

Hello, 

I am trying to do the same thing. I have short video thumbnails that i am trying to make clickable. I have tried this method, and it only shows the text "clickable" on the video. I can click the text, and it navigates me to my desired URL, but the video is still not clickable. 

Any ideas?
