How to Find and Watch Deleted YouTube Videos?
It’s not so hard to restore and watch a deleted youtube video. With the help of YouTube. Why YouTube itself? The thing is that YouTube vids are stored for a good while on the hard-drive of the search engine after deletion as it may turn out that a certain DMCA complaint was unfounded, and the notice-take down match was an unnecessary hassle.
Here are 3 video resuscitation sites to undelete YouTube videos
ReviveTube: http://revivetube.com/ Feed the dead youtube vid link in the box and there you are. Not all vids are brought back to life. Very easy to use, and the design is user-friendly too.
Delutube: no, not delutube.com, the address is http://www.youtube.infamousx.com/
Delutube needs the video ID of the deleted video instead of the URL. How do you know the ID of the deleted video? If you know the URL, you know the ID too, as it is the last few characters of the URL after this part “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=”
Delutube has some browser problems, so for me in Firefox it was just a blank screen, but I could pull down some random vids. The screen is smaller than that of ReviveTube (see above).
Again, not all videos can be restored, but several of the zombie vids. You can also watch randomly selected videos, which are based on previous searches users made to recover some deleted items.
Deletedyoutube at http://www.deletedyoutube.ftvteen.com/ seems to specialize in those users who can be considered ‘video viewers of adult contents.’
No more “This video is no longer available” - at least, not that much. :)
A note for advertisers: sites like ReviveTube or Delutube can be targeted via Google ads (site targeted) at a very low price - and people use satellite youtube sites to get that precious content they are looking for. Another youtube-related theme is how to download youtube videos. Also worth considering.

cool info - did not know such sites even exist…
still a good idea for everybody to install some simple tool that will save youtube vid for you while its on)). Here is my favorite: youtube clip extractor - youtube downloader and youtube converter in one
it looks a useful spam comment, so I will leave it - let me know guys if the above youtube downloader & converter is a good service and really free of bugs and creatures. If not, it can also be exposed. :)

The first post is Hungarian… I never thought that i would find anybody from my country at a page like this…
BTW it translates to:The message “This video is no longer available” can be pretty annoying - at least for hardcore youtube TV watchers…
