This is the video - Gimp 2.8 from 2012 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N87VHCkbsts
If it is not working, then probably the foreground is too similar to the background. There are several ways to extract a foreground, now with Gimp 2.10 the improved foreground extract tool, while not wonderful will make a selection you can use with a layermask.
The main thing is getting that initial black / white layer mask that you can improve, do not be confused by PixLabs 256 / 16 million colours
As an alternative, the gimp_gmic_qt plugin has an interactive foreground extract. Quite effective, I use it on occasion.
