You have to be careful if you use external link in you server. Use this code only for your server file.

<?php
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: Binary'); 
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename="video.mp4"'); 
readfile('/video/offset-17408-720.mp4');
