How to Watch Deleted YouTube Videos

YouTube is an extremely rich platform in terms of content. YouTube allows you to watch the same videos again and again. Besides, you can add them to the “Watch Later” list and watch the video anytime you want. Sometimes, YouTube can delete some of the videos. Even though you add it to your “Watch Later” list, it can be removed from there too. Usually, channels edit the deleted video in a way that YouTube will give approval. If they cannot, they may upload the video from a different channel with a different title. Thus, if you cannot find the video that you want to watch, you can check the channel, or you can search for the video again. However, there can be situations that YouTube catches the video and remove it again. If that is the case, you can still watch deleted YouTube videos with different methods.

The Reasons Why YouTube Videos Are Deleted

YouTube can delete videos due to several reasons. YouTube has staff members that check and examines every video in terms of their appropriateness. During their control or due to other users’ requests, some videos can be deleted.

Copyright & Trademark

Copyright and trademark issues are some of the most common reasons for the deletion of a video. If the video is taken by another channel or platform, the original owner of the video can intervene. They send a “complete legal request” for YouTube to check and delete the video. After examination, if YouTube detects that the channel took the video from someone else, they will delete the video.

YouTube’s Terms of Service

YouTube’s Terms of Service include guidelines for content and appropriateness of videos on the platform. If other users report your video with a red flag or YouTube detects an issue in the content, the video will be deleted again. In some cases, YouTube can bring age restrictions instead of removing the video. Thus, if you show to YouTube that you are older than 18, you may still watch the video.

Most commonly, YouTube can delete videos due to copyright and trademark, hateful or abusive content, nudity, a threat to some groups, women, or children, etc. If these are the cases, YouTube will delete them again even channels upload the same videos again.

How to Watch Deleted YouTube Videos

There are a couple of ways to find and watch deleted videos. If one method does not work, you can try all of them.

Internet Archive Wayback Machine

Wayback Machine is a digital archive that you can find all data that once uploaded to the internet. Thanks to its advanced algorithm, you can access any kind of content for free. Hence, it is a perfect way to find and watch deleted YouTube videos. However, keep in mind that you need URLs to use the Wayback Machine.

  • Firstly, you should log in to your YouTube account. Since you cannot find the video via search box, you can find relevant information via your account or lists. After finding the video, you will not be able to watch it, but you can copy the URL.
  • If you successfully copied the URL of the deleted video, paste it to the search box on the Wayback Machine web page. Then, search for it.
  • Now, the video and other related videos will appear on the page. You can download it from there too.
