- It's interesting when you think about how much content has come and gone on UA-cam as well as the internet in general. Today we'll look at some lost videos I watched back in the day, do you remember any of them?

it bothers me to no end that we were raised being told that once something is on the internet, it’s there forever, but then we have a massive lost media community because that’s not the case

A blessing or curse depending on the situation.
Hopefully the next generation will be taught “don’t trust the internet to save everything you make”
So I'm in a group called 'The Omniarchive', which aims to archive and preserve all versions of Minecraft, alpha, beta, etc. I told my parents about it once, and they just said "you're not trying hard enough. Once something's on the internet, it's there forever." So yea, they don't fully understand how this works.
UA-cam Lost media is kind of a sore spot for me. The fact that we've lost a decade's worth of early UA-cam Poops, Let's Plays, video game collecting videos and AMVs that we'll likely never see again kind of hurts.
One recent piece of lost youtube content I encountered was music from a somewhat obscure 70s British folk group called Swan Arcade. Someone had uploaded their last CD album from 1990 to UA-cam that I would listen to but it was eventually deleted and the album isn't on streaming services. Luckily I had put in a saved search on ebay and after 2 years one popped up for auction and I was able to win it.
why are they gone?
@@penieweenieselenie7435 Various reasons, channels get deleted, copyright strikes take videos down, people get bullied and decide to delete their videos or they grow up and delete their videos to start a more professional online presence.
Old school YTP’s were the best, so many classics that are now lost 😩
Has anyone ever heard of Trap Lore Ross' missing videos?
One example of lost UA-cam media would be "Choose Your Adventure" style videos where you'd pick one of the annotations in the video to go to an unlisted video, where there would be more annotations to choose from. Since UA-cam removed annotations a while back and some of those videos remain unlisted or deleted, they're probably gone forever.
I remember a small part of an old music upload. It was fan made Eggman boss music in the SEGA Genesis soundfont. I haven't been able to find it yet though. I think it was uploaded sometime before 2013 and the video had a picture of Eggman from the first three Sonic games.
your comment has made me remember choose your adventure videos. i remember one that was made by someone that was p big in the spooky side of youtube but i stopped following along because i’m impatient. i want to say mr davis but i don’t think that’s right. it’s right on the tip of my tongue dude
Theres a plugin that can bring back annotations
@@asapling where can i get it?
You need to use links now
I heard all unlisted UA-cam videos uploaded before 2017 are now privated, unless the uploader went back and manually set the unlisted video to "public."
speaking of fall out boy, i remember around 2007-2008 when ‘misheard lyrics’ videos were a huge thing. i spent hours watching these goofy fall out boy misheard lyric videos, but i’d imagine most of them are gone by now ):
HOLY SHIT i remember these they were rlly big on tumblr lol
in like 2012 i think sorry for the annoying ass double reply im using a fuck shit way to watch yt 😁👍🏻
I remember the one for Dance, Dance. That was really funny to my friends and I when we were younger.
This isn’t a fallout misheard lyric video, but this one is the classic Skyrim one for those who want the memories! ua-cam.com/video/cSBCaGRILJI/v-deo.html
Sing, until your lungs skidaddle!
a bunch of hilarious ytps have been copyright struck and are just gone and I'm upset about it
That's why at this point having had two ytpers I really liked getting struck down out of nowhere. I'm going to download ytps, especially from smaller creators.
i think that, due to the existence of YTPing existing YTPs, they could still be on people's drives somewhere
Theirs still hope, a yakkos world ytp was saved over years
Don't be too hard on yourself about deleting old videos, we all make decisions like that. For instance, when I was younger, I had a fairly decent sized vhs collection, which me & my parents sold after the old player died. Looking back, we all see it as a mistake, and even though I've been collecting tapes again, I'll never see the original tv recordings I had ever again. Point is, we do things without thinking of future implications, and that's fine. For me, the old art vids that got me into your channel are still around, so nothing I really liked is lost.
At least I think not.
It rememinds me of when I traded in my gamecube at gamestop when I was young. I regret it now but I was happy when I was a kid to get the money for gba games.
hey, at least you sold them on to someone who could use them! Too many people immediately choose to throw stuff out now.
@@manfail7469 agreed, that's the bright side of it. Throwing stuff out, especially stuff that could be worth preserving, is terrible for archival efforts. Really, just think about how many possible things- that are now considered lost- might stay lost just because someone trashed them, like the Sonic 1 prototype.

@@notJCS I have the Mariokart ds Demo cartridge, does that mean anything to you?
Oh hey it’s me at 8:24 :D
If I would’ve known at the time, I probably would’ve downloaded a few of Zacks videos. Can’t believe what we’re talking about is over a decade old now. I never thought about how we’d get here, yet here we are.
I also have experience with lost media. As a kid, i was really into mermaids, like a lot. I wanted to become a mermaid too. I looked up mermaid stuff on UA-cam and found this little show made by two preteen girls around my age at the time called "get off my tail show." From what I remember, the plot is that the two girls suddenly become mermaids and they desperately try to go back to normal. The show went on hiatus with the promise of season 2 of the show coming out soon. A few months went by and they posted a video to say that shit happened and they won't be continuing the series. Their video was flooded with dislikes and angry comments and I'm pretty sure that's why they deleted the channel and all the episodes of the show.
I wish i could see it again just for some nostalgia, but that's definitely never going to happen.
No wait because I was also obsessed with mermaids at this time and watched that show too!! I also watched secret life of a mermaid and the three tails along with any other mermaid show I could watch as a kid
You’re probably confusing it with a actual TV series called H20 Just add Water
@@NickLogoAbk2913 nope, i never watched that series
@@Sknotty Fun fact: They could have disabled the comments section and hide the likes count in settings if they didn't want to see those things. I would say hide the dislikes count, but UA-cam is actually doing that now.
There was a channel I liked watching as a kid that everybody else seemed to hate, and they ended up deleting their accounts. I wish I was old enough to comment so I could actually support them, but this was back before I would comment. I just watched their motivation to upload deteriorate and they eventually just nuked the account altogether in like early 2010, which was 12 YEARS ago. I want to find those videos again too, but it's just so unlikely since the channel was so small and was criticized.
MissingNoXpert or something similar to such I'm still subscribed to them I know that they had a let's Play of Pokemon Blue and Pokemon yellow. Both called let's play Pokemon with glitches where he played through the games and did some awesome glitches. Some glitches I have never seen before on any other channel. I have always wanted to find an archive of his videos and playlist
I remember playing through the games and mimicking every movie did in the playlist and having a blast I still have my safe cartridge of Pokemon yellow with all the glitched Pokemon on it
Videos/ playlist was uploaded circa 2016 (rough guess) I remember him uploading the Pokemon Blue with glitches playthrough. I found his channel he has 45k subs with every video wiped off the channel
Lol I'm stupid he has them archived in his community tab. Thanks for the likes 🙂 (definitely give it a watch tho)

The AMV thing struck a cord with me. I made two Wolf's rain AMVs back in the day on my old channel. I deleted that channel and no longer had interest in the AMVs. Looking back, I wish I would have saved those old AMVs.
AMVs where like my lifeline early on the internet, and sadly a lot of the ones I watched as a kid are gone. either from copyright, the channel getting deleted or the video gets blocked in my country cause of the song.
I remember watching a lot of Ed Edd n Eddy and Club Penguin AMVs back in the day and I think most are lost now
I made a bunch of Fullmetal Alchemist and Hellsing AMVs back in the day. I think I only published one or two, then copyright strikes came along, I lost that channel, and didn't keep the copies. Pretty cringe, but it might have been funny to look back on.
I remember watching so much youtube back in 2007 and it's crazy how much youtube has changed since then. The fact that there was a 5 star rating and every video had to be in 4:3 aspect ratio and all the little quirks the site had back then!
Also thanks for the likes at 0:37 I had to do a double take for a second when I saw that.
Watching Naruto vs Sasuke's fight in low quality with some Linkin Park song blaring in the background is one of my earliest UA-cam memories.
Me too. I also discovered UA-cam in 2007.
Remember when people would just upload whole episodes of anime? But the videos couldn’t be that long so they had to cut them in three parts? lol me and my sister used to click on videos like “Inuyasha episode one part one (dubbed)” and then go play while we waited for the episode to load. Lol
Glad I finally have a place to bring this up:
So I used to be really into Angry Birds and would watch plush videos all the time, and there's this one specific video I never stopped thinking about called "pig in a jar" which is just an Angry Birds pig plush half-shoved inside of a jar with a boy singing off-screen (the lyrics are just "pig in a jar" over and over with the occasional "we love you"). This video is less than 10 seconds long and I can't find it for the life of me, it's probably deleted for all I know.
all i can think of is a video of a guy filming an angry birds pig toy rolling around in a car
I can’t think about a toy in a jar the same way after that incident.
Do you by chance remember the name of the channel
@@johnlesher3001 if I did, I would've found the video by now
I remember seeing a Halloween themed Angry Birds plush video where one of the blues wears a crayon on his head and says he’s dressed up as a unicorn.
There was another by the same channel where a pig gets a knife stuck up his nose because he complained about a booger.
For whatever reason, I can’t seem to find the original videos.
I find it strange that people say “what goes on the Internet, stays on the Internet” when there’s an bunch of videos that I used to watch that I can’t find, some of them have been deleted or privated and there’s no reuploads of these videos I wanna watch again
It's sad that everything is on a timer as I remember channels dedicated to animation that are usually short lived as they either delete the channel or just ending up privatizing everything, those channels really get to me as I remembered a cool small native artist doing a 8 video series about two femboys as one is native with long curly hair and the other one is a white blondie with short hair as they're pretty much rouge cowboys in the wild west in the year 1901 but I only remembered their fun and sometimes sad camping trips throughout the animated series as the story seems to tie into a long webcomic on tumblr before the animated series started but I didn't bother reading it because the animation and storytelling is great and with the ending of their failed train heist as they both ended up serving time for life in two different prisons, I vaguely remember the name as it's something about the plains and I wished I could have saved one of those videos as those two femboys are honestly the best ship but I did sense a sense a theme of self hatred in the series as the creator probably deleted it because it's probably his personal story or something like that as I saw the 10k viewed series in late November in 2011.
@@biggjuggga4978 that’s pretty interesting, wish remnants remained of it cause that’s piqued my interest. I remember a few videos that a brony channel called ed plus made, they were videos of Ellis and coach from l4d2 but he deleted them or privated them around 2016-2019 and I haven’t seen a single reupload of them, they weren’t anything too special but I liked them. There was a channel named drpugjr that had a bunch of really strange but funny content I used to watch as a kid. They made edgy Minecraft and brony videos along with a few other videos that were just as weird. He privated all of his videos around 2019-2020. One of his uploads remains as a reupload which is “Minecraft noob the movie” or something along the lines of that. It’s a shame honestly. Recently, a brony classic “a day at the dentist” was privated but thankfully reuploaded. I really wish people would take archiving seriously, these videos are the reason why I’m paranoid about what’s archived and what’s not
Edit: that Minecraft reupload is either gone or buried under a bunch of today’s garbage
That's because it's not about lost media or whatever, it's basically a warning of when you post something embarrassing or intimate and personal on yourself to the internet.
@@akabkb6692 like personal artworks? Yeah I love those as those people are actually pretty cool and I get the need to not share art as it ties into life and all with our emotions and values, some things aren't never meant to see the daylight for the artists survival or their stubbornness.
@@biggjuggga4978 Not really, though you could probably include that. By personal or intimate details I basically mean doxxing yourself and/or handing out images of yourself. Stuff along those lines
Nice cirno btw
My experience with “lost media” music wise is the channel Nosbo2007. They would show what samples current and older rap songs used. Their channel mysteriously got deleted in late 2020. (It wasn’t for copyright since it didn’t say that the account was removed for violating copyright). But Luckily all of their videos have been archived on the internet archive.
I think they came back under a similar name but not with their old content (Bosno 2008)
Maybe you should reupload those videos if they really are deleted from this site.
I had my piece of lost media that had a happy ending. I used to rent this particular nes vhs tape all the time when I was a kid. later in life I was searching the internet and there was nothing on it, I didn’t even remember the name. I have all the other Nes Vhs tapes and saw tons of lists and all I had was a vague memory. 8 YEARS LATER! I finally stumbled upon it. Its just called Video Game Guide, imagine finding that needle in a haystack with that title. I also had a tv show called Twitch that I wouldve definitely considered lost media. I ended spent a fortune getting these uploaded but its all worth it in the end when you get those comments how other people had found memories of these shows.
I remember watching one UA-cam poop back in 2012 which was basically One Piece opening 1 (Funimation version) but with lots of edits and inserts of CD-i characters.
Singer’s voice was even edited to sing “maaaaaah boiiiii”.
Ironically, despite the video using Funimation opening, the title of video itself was something like “4Kids buys back One Piece”
I remember a lot of passionate One Piece fans attacking the video due to misleading title which is is maybe why the video was deleted. I don’t know who was the uploader but I searched for many years without luck.
The unfortunate thing about lost media of this kind, is that when deleted its permanently gone forever
Another piece of YT lost media I remember was a video showcasing a rom hack of MK64 with all the characters being replaced with what I assume was the uploader’s OCs. All the sprites looked hand drawn and it even had original voice clips! It was probably the most impressive looking rom hack at the time (around 2010 - 2012.)
Really!? I wish I saw that!!
One lost media for me is the Alltime Conspiracies channel, they were pretty big around 2015-2018 around the whole top 10 craze went on and then they kinda fell off after a while and then recently i noticed that they deleted their entire portfolio and found out they started another channel and said they basically deleted all their videos because youtube isn’t friendly towards that kind of content. And no one bothered to reupload anything
I remember them. Their channel still had it's content till around early to mid 2019. That's when I unsubscribed from them.
Oh damn, and I probably watched tons of their videos from back then, I know I was at least subbed to their main channel and some of the side channels for a while, then similarly unsubscribed a couple years ago
holy shit i didn’t even realize they were gone….
This is why UA-cam fucking sucks in 2022
someone is reuploading some on a channel called "alltime conspiracies archive"
I've got my own story about UA-cam lost media. There used to be this video, "Scarface Vegeta Montana".
It was a series of Dragonball Z clips that had been dubbed over with the audio from the movie "Scarface". It was so fucking funny when I first watched it, and I've never been able to find it again.
Is this clip related to the Vegeta Montana video? ua-cam.com/video/hMP9aQkrAf4/v-deo.html
man, I heavily relate to the "losing videos" aspect of Lost Media. I had a UA-cam account before this with 4 thousand subs (not the point). but I started posting there since 2014, up until UA-cam decided to shut it down in 2018 without any actual reason. I did nothing wrong.
so now, hundreds of videos that I made in the past are gone. never to be seen ever again. and no matter how many times I tried to contact UA-cam. there was no help. at all. feels like a piece of ya is ripped from you.
You never bothered to back up any of those videos or save them before deletion, but that's still pretty sad.
@@andykishore I never bothered because I never thought I'd happen. Never crossed my mind at that time.
Probably got flagged for a bunch of copyright strikes at once. UA-cam sucks like that.
what types of videos did you make ?
@@DPlex Are they porn videos?
For some reason I always remember this one YTP of the Fairly Odd Parents pilot every now and then which had a scene where there were a bunch of "Oh magic 9-ball, when will my parents get back from the movies?" gags played in succession, with one I remember in particular being one where the box art render of Mario from Mario Party 6 appeared on the 9-ball but with extremely poor transparency and said something to Timmy that I don't remember but it was probably a typical classic YTP Mario voiceline. That's all I remember about it though and I haven't been able to find it since I watched it all those years ago. Every time I see that one render of Mario I'm always reminded of it, so it'd be nice to see it again.
Lost UA-cam videos are so interesting to me. I remember so many videos that aren't around anymore, specifically Mario blooper videos. Most of them are either buried and hard to find because of SMG4, or simply taken down. Man, I remember watching tv episodes/clips too before those vanished. And many more. (Edit: hey guys, I discovered a cool trick! If you're trying to look for a lost video, put in a search term of what you're looking for and type in "before:(your preferred date)"! It helps a lot if you're looking for a specific video! For example, "amv before:2013" and videos from before 2013 should come up. Happy searching!
Shout out to all the old school Super Mario 64 Bloopers creators, my first exposure to Machinima ever. I still lament the hacking of Nikkonolasco / Envoyofthesword's channel, and the death of their Wrath of the Ice God series as a result.
@@somebonehead Truth! I'll never forget the old school Mario bloopers. My go-to vids whenever I came home from school.

@@ThatGuy-ky2yf Nothing like watching a Mario video with Scatman in it before doing some homework.
@@TheRealMissAcorn The Mario Vs Santa trilogy along with various other Mario 64 machinemas from 2008-13 still hold a special place for me. It's sad knowing that many are gone because of Machinema privating their catalogue and people cringing at their old videos.
finally, a good video to talk about my personal lost media
back in like. 2011 or 2012, I stumbled upon a Mario plush video that got me in trouble, the one thing I remember was a scene where an evil Mario and Luigi clone were talking to Bowser, Mario said shut up and my mom got upset that I was watching "inappropriate" videos and closed the video. years later and I still CANNOT find the video, if anyone knows what the video is, please let me know
Not sure if this is the same thing but I remember watching a Nintendo/Mario fan channel in 2006-2007 hosted by a Mario plush with a VERY good impression of Mario's voice. One of these videos was discussing the left-handed/right-handed controversy for Zelda Twilight Princess. He gets mad at another character and when he swears it would be censored by a coin sound.
I think it might've been on SuperMarioLogan because I think I remember something similar
Mama's a Karen
Yeah....
WAIT I THINK I KNOW YOU FROM TWITTER
Some of the content creators I first followed here on UA-cam have suddenly just deleted their accounts, this stuff really was extremely common back in the day and I was just never able to find these videos again and relive some of those memories.
Really interesting stuff. Feels like most of my lost UA-cam memories were UA-cam Poops. The loss of CaptainOhYeah's videos has always been a really really crushing ordeal.
But I remember a lot more Newgrounds stuff that was just there one day, gone the next. Zelda fangames, vulgar parodies, stick battles (This one, "Battle Against Cyrus" I was a real sucker for). Man I miss the old mess that is old Newgrounds.
CaptainOhYeah? Is that basically UA-cam Poops based on Oh Yeah Cartoons!
@@NitwitsWorld No, although that would be pretty cool too. CaptainOhYeah was just a content creator who made some pretty great poops. His material included stuff like the Twisted Sister music video for "We're Not Gonna Take It" and Rugrats and stuff.
@@NitwitsWorld There's a reasonably well known one called "Pride Patties" that I think was his best known work. I gotta say "Think" here because a few people have reuploaded it, some with and some without credit, some with contradictory info. But I think that was him.

Now this is a topic i wanna see more of.
i remember alot of the early "myths & legends" channels, and my personal favorite was Cfox306 (now claude fox) but i can only find a handful of his videos here and there, anyone else remember him?
He was part of the VGPI forums
Man, I remember seeing a UA-cam AMV of Weird Al's "Just Eat It" over Kirby: Right back at ya' clips of kirby eating food. It's not available anymore and was very old. Maybe 2008 (I don't know for sure)
I remember watching something like that back around the same time.
I remember on Stardoll, (I know it's not UA-cam) there was a room that played a slideshow of anime pictures. An instrumental version of Avril Lavigne's girlfriend. I think it had a fly.
I remember watching that!
Oh my god I think I remember that exact video!
Wait, this video isn't available anymore?
I had some lost media experiences on UA-cam. When I was younger, I had a hyperfixation on Mario. So I went on this site called UA-cam. My brother had just introduced UA-cam to me at the time, so I went on the site and searched up Mario. One thing that popped up was a playlist filled to the brim with scary and disturbing Mario content. I don’t remember if the playlist had a title, but yeah. One of the vids I think was that jump scare you talked about. The video I remember most fondly, since it scared me, was Mario breakdancing in fire. It was super Mario 64 style.
Reminds me of the time where I had just just discovered youtube in first grade and I found a video where a UA-camr was showing how is cat could do a trick. It ended up being a jumpscare where he distorted the color, sound and visuals while making the volume super loud. I later was watching a documentary about an infamous youtuber and it ended up that it was definitely one of his early videos on his channel. I thought he was just a random, one off youtuber!
I remember a weird creepy Mario video my brother showed me that I can’t find now and it’s one where Mario is dancing in bowsers castle with boos all around him and the peanut butter and jelly banana came into frame and started dancing then Michael Jackson started playing in the background and finally a jump scare of the scary maze face popped up on the screen it scared me so bad at 9 years old
@@kirrawade4512 it might’ve been a YTP.
I remember there being a History of Mario 5 part series someone did that ended with a jumpscare at the end of the last part

One of these "Lost Medias I remember watching" was a version of Club Penguin 12 pains of Christmas, except it had some MS Paint segments. Briefly, it was a tradition in the early 2010s to watch it and enjoy the funny penguin parody. I've checked the UA-cam videos, but none are the one.
I do remember feeling a little surreal rediscovering some Chris-Chan reviewer's videos, as those were some of the earlier things I saw. But I also remember Fred meets Annoying Orange.
I have some lost media of my own that I wish was never deleted. It’s probably gone for good now. Always make sure you have several copies of your videos you never know when you want to look back on them!

@@Nactendo Hey, yes I’m a huge fan of lost media!!!
@@SSJGoshin4 awesome! Love your videos been watching for years! :)
One of my biggest cases of lost media was Protonjon's Enigmatic Mario series. While Protonjon has moved on to Twitch streaming normal games nowadays, the thing that got me and alot of other people interested in him was his Let's Plays of Mario romhacks. One such romhack was Enigmatic Mario, a puzzle hack. To my knowledge Jon only uploaded let's plays for 2 levels, stage 3 and stage 5 (there may be more, however I doubt it, while it might seem strange to only upload videos for 2 of 5 levels, this was common on Protonjon's channel back in the day, whether due to him collaborating with someone else with them alternating levels, or in the case of Enigmatic Mario I think he explained that the other levels just weren't interesting enough to make a video about, could be wrong though). I consider all his Mario romhack videos to be classics, and the Enigmatic Mario videos were some of my favorites.
However, as Jon has explained, his save stating and load stating caused the music to repeat the same portions over and over, so instead of listening to the game music, he would instead put on background music. Sometimes it was from video games and he usually didn't have an issue, however particularly in the Enigmatic Mario videos, his music selection was copyrighted music from bands like The Beatles.
For the longest time it was actually Stage 3 that was lost, one of the parts got hit with copyright and the sound for the entire part was muted, so Jon just removed the entirety of Stage 3. However, thankfully there were fans who backed up these videos, and if you're willing to use Dailymotion for Part 4, the entirety of stage 3 can be viewed (albeit in much worse quality than when it was originally uploaded).
By comparison, Stage 5 was relatively untouched and remained on Jon's channel for years. I believe this led people to falsely believe it would stay up forever and nobody bothered archiving it. However around 6 years ago (according to when people started noticing in the UA-cam comments) part 1 of stage 5 got hit with a copyright claim and was muted. Jon removed Part 1, though he left up Stage 5 Part 2, which remains the only remaining trace of Engimatic Mario on his UA-cam channel. Unfortunately I cannot find any archives of Enigmatic Mario Stage 5 Part 1 at all.
Unlike with Stage 3 which got hit with copyright years ago when Protonjon's Mario romhack videos were at their height and getting hundreds of thousands of views, Stage 5 got hit with copyright years after these videos were relevant, only a handful of diehard fans such as myself still return to any of them except for the Kaizo special stages. As a result, if people did archive Stage 5 Part 1 back in the day, chances are they've moved on from watching Protonjon and lost the archive, or just haven't noticed that it was removed. It's really sad, I remember laughing so hard watching him rage at Stage 5, and thinking how clever some of the puzzles and solutions were, yet now all that's left is Part 2. Even though the series had hundreds of thousands of views, the age of them has resulted in nobody bothering to properly archive them.
My family didnt have good enough internet to watch youtube until around 2008 or so but most of the things that are gone now would be youtubepoops that eventually get copyright claimed. Funny enough along with music I used to record just the audio of some spongebob ones on my MP3 player from middle school to listen to with a friend before 1 period started. Unfortunately I eventually gave that MP3 player to my little sister and I very highly doubt its still around. I specially remember one of the episode grandmas cookies which I always found hilarious. I recall one of the lines being "spongebob the president has been kidnapped by ninjas" LOL if it still exists on youtube would love to watch it again but I doubt it.
The MP3 player idea is so funny. Imagine playing "The sky had a Weegee" in class lol.
I remember when I first discovered UA-cam I was really into fandom culture and spend hours watching amvs. I recently tried to find some again but majority no longer exist which was really disheartening
GOD SAME!!!! From Sonic to Kids next door I binged a lot of amvs because of the music. I'm really sad that two of my favorite knd amvs arent on this website anymore (one with Castaway by Green Day, thats how I got my love for that song, and then Crazy in love, the normal version) Ive looked everywhere for these amvs but I could never find them, even on dailymotion and other weird places. I really hope they are preserved but I doubt it. its why most of my watch later are these amvs, so i dont forget them now. There was these Alvin and the chipmunk amvs by Punkmunk45 I cant find anymore either. One of my friends collects Ben 10 amvs but never stumbled upon the Kids Next Door ones.
@@LocalTorchwoodIntern omg I would watch all those too!! I even think I’ve watched the same crazy in love knd amv. I also watched a lot of teen titans amvs but if majority are gone I can bet those are too :(

@@flowerzforsaturn oh my god! I used my fathers account so in likes there is like only the sonic amvs but I have a ton of the other ones in my watch later, I should really make a playlist.
Speaking of music, i've always backed up new old music and music in general i've found on youtube. Been doing it for about 10 years now. I wouldnt be suprised if i have some now lost music in my download collection.
I also have some youtube lost media, Jevy69 or 69jevy was a british channel i remember who did challenges that were popular at the time. He did something similar to the cinnamon challenge but with chili powder. Most of his videos happened in his kitchen. His channels are completely gone but except for his gaming channel that hasnt been updated in years.
same, I've also acquired CDs of bands over the years, sometimes I wonder if I die will the music die with me. Nobody seems interested in that kind of emo/poprock sound from the early 2000s.
Please reupload those music videos if they really aren't on the website anymore and if you can get past the copyright blah blah blah.
@@andykishore its all in mp3 format unfortunately lol. still, i should go through it all someday.
@@tobykassulke2385 Music is rare man. Take care of them and make sure to upload them on sites where people can listen to them
There was another mario 64 screamer I'm sure of that it ended with "go to the waterfall aaaaaaand...."
There's two pieces of YT lost media I've been trying to find for years but sadly but haven't been able to find. Back in the day when UA-cam Poops were more popular, one of my favorite creators was a guy called igiulamam ("Mamaluigi" spelled backwards). His channel got deleted at one point, likely due to copyright strikes, and while he did make a new channel called oiramapap ("Papamario" backwards), which is still up, he never re-uploaded much of his old content, and re-uploads are extremely rare. A video I've never been able to re-find is a video titled "Eminem Gets Chemicals in his Plant" which mashed together the song "Just Lose It" by Eminem with Chemical Plant Zone from Sonic 2. Unfortunately I don't remember who made it, and I've never found any re-uploads since it got taken down years ago (again likely due to copyright).
yooo I remember oiramapap. He was pretty popular, so I was sure someone had reuploaded it, but I guess not. So many classic YTPs lost to time.
LSSQ is easily my favorite member of the lost media community
A piece of lost media I fondly remember watching was the "Super Mario 64 Awesome Gameshark Codes" series, by a user named SuperMario803. The series was divided into episodes, wtih each one being a showcase of various Gameshark codes based on the episodes' theme (ex. Whomp's Fortress codes, which had codes like playing as a whomp/thwomp or a Whomp's Fortress-themed skin for Mario). What I remember about the creator is that their profile picture was a meme of a dog with a phone to its ear saying "Hello? Yes, this is phone", and I'm pretty sure his username once was different, having a name like Jacob or Jason in it. The videos were your typical 2008/2009 style video with the windows movie maker effects, memes, and music from the time being included in them. The most I found was a playlist on youtube of most of, if not, all of the videos, but they're privated. It has 14 privated videos, implying episodes 1-14 would've been there. They're might've only been 14 episodes of the series, but I'm not sure. There may have been a couple more. I also found an archive of the page for episode 14 of the series, which was named "Mountain Codes", dating back to 2010. Unfortunately, no video with it. I remember watching this, and it was jsut showcasing gameshark codes based on the tall tall mountain level. I remember I would watch every episode all the time, and I believe the last time I watched them was around 2015-2016. The most prominent episode I remember was one possibly having to do with either lava, lethal lava land, or bowser/bowser in the fire sea themed gameshark codes (I don't remember the episode number). I remember it had the songs We Like To Party by the Vengaboys, Toxic by Britney Spears, and The Sweet Escape by Gwen Stefani played throughout the video, and MIGHT have had So What by P!nk there was well (either this or a different video, but I definitely remember the song being in a video by him). I also feel like it's worth mentioning one part in this episode, which I think was at the part where the lava mario skin was being shown (It was jsut a recolor of mario to make him match the color of lava). Mario entered the bowser in the lava sea fight with bowser, with The Sweet Escape playing over it. When the intiial cutscene for the battle played, the music would fade out, and Bowser's opening text would be replaced by the Zelda CGI audio of "Mah boi, I wonder what's for dinner?", to where the camera shifts over to mario with some angry face drawn on him, with the audio of Luigi saying "YOU!" from Hotel Mario plays. I thought this part was hilarious back then.
here are the links for what's left that i've found:
Web Archive of Episode 14: web.archive.org/web/20100714031109/ua-cam.com/video/uS7PK7O5gpg/v-deo.html
Playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PL3014D149A5081C77.html
I think I remember seeing that channel in my recommended feed back around 2010-2012. Not sure if I watched any of his videos tho.
That first topic reminds me of how my sister (and now myself as well thanks to her) made a spreadsheet of all the songs on her UA-cam playlist, and updates it every so often when she checks back. With my own list, I can see how some of the songs are no longer available as of creating the spreadsheet, so I have no idea what they were. And some of those have disappeared I’m not that long of a span of time. The most interesting related thing for me though is that there are songs from the first 2 ep.s of a band I enjoy, which now can only be accessed through UA-cam as far as I can tell. Because the first time they released a proper album, it was with a new record label, and now it seems that they don’t have the rights to have those old songs from the previous label posted on other services along with their newer and current songs. It’s very interesting to me and I thank the one UA-cam channel known only as Erin for having those songs available still. I fell in love with those early songs because that was how I discovered the band, hearing an old song on the channel IndieAir. That song I heard is no longer one you can hear if you go to the bands Spotify or such, although the other song I heard through the same indie channel was one that got included on their first album. It’s so wild to hear their songs played at events though now because they were still relatively unknown when I found them, as evidenced by their songs being on an indie music channel. The band is The Score, which has gotten very popular now and even collaborated with blackbear for a song, but I will never forget Till the Stars Burn Blue, This Beating Heart, Real Life, and even their cover of Say Something. Eddie and Eden, thank you.
Sorry for the long unrelated comment but this really unlocked something in my heart! LSSQ, keep being awesome and doing what you’re doing! I really admire the dedication to only make the content that interests you. It’s a really genuine way of doing things, and not something creators as popular as you can always achieve. Have an awesome day!
I was really about to ask if this was about Magnolia Park.
This reminds me of AMVs I edited ages ago to some of my favorite films that are now lost forever because they were saved on hard drives that failed or they got erased by accident when I upgraded my system. They only exist in my memory now.
Hey its OCP.
I have a lost media story. There was a series of UA-cam videos I was OBSESSED with when I was young, but I have never been able to find again. I believe the series was called *Pokétropia* , with one episode being called Pokétopia, after a commenter suggested that name, before the name was changed back to Pokétropia the following episode. (I'm not sure if this was the name of the title of the channel itself.)
I remember it being a series of videos about mistakes, strange tropes, banned/censored episodes, etc from the classic Pokémon anime. It was mainly stuff regarding the original Pokémon Indigo League anime, although it may have delved into some of the later episodes from Johto and Hoenn, although I'm not sure. There were also a few facts about banned cards from the Pokémon card game.
The narration was entirely done via on-screen text overlayed onto pictures and clips from the anime. A recurring joke was having a picture of an anime screenshot of a particularly angry Poliwrath come on-screen about particularly silly fun facts, especially if it had anything to do with 4Kids edits. Speaking of which, this channel loved to poke fun at 4Kids, having an entire segment called "4Kids hates Japan", which focused on the stupid edits done by 4Kids to "Americanize" the show by removing Japanese elements. One of the videos in the series was entirely focused on banned episodes.
I imagine it probably was copyright stricken due to its usage of many clips from the Pokémon anime and/or using many songs from the Pokémon games as background music. Does anyone remember Pokétropia? If anyone could find that series, I would love to see it again.
Some of the fun facts included:
- *The first fun fact of the whole series* The original Pokérap using a Poliwag image for Poliwrath. (I think they also pointed out the Geodude image being used for Graveler, but I'm not completely sure.)
-The Japan-only Misty card that was never brought here for obvious reasons
-The obvious changing of riceballs/onigiri to "jelly-filled donuts"
-Bill having an etching of Mewtwo on this home despite the fact that he shouldn't know about Mewtwo due to it being an internal Team Rocket secret that he shouldn't know about.
-All of the banned episodes from Indigo League, such as The Legend of Dratini, Holiday Hi-Jynx, Beauty and the Beach, and of course, Electric Soldier Porygon. I am not sure if it covered some of the later generations' banned episodes, such as The Ice Cave episode or the Barboach-Whiscash episode.
Just some of the few that I can remember :)
This type of lost media hits real close to home for me.
I used to watch a lot of Lego SpongeBob videos on UA-cam, and my favorite ones were from a UA-camr who I can’t remember the name of, all I remember is the intro had the South Park theme, there was a character called Georgie (who was basically kenny, complete with the dying and the catchphrase) and there was an episode where he had to climb something tall, I think his channel got deleted or taken down a year or two after I discovered it and I was devastated,when it happened.
One that I remember watching was that special showing of the Jimmy Neutron movie that Nickelodeon aired where the characters of the show riffed on it MST3K style. It was found a few years ago, but for a little while I had been looking for it because I remembered it, discovered it was lost, and became very intrigued.
Genius, Sheenius or Inbetweenius
Remember the crossover with the fairly odd parents and jimmy neutron.
There was this video I saw once of a parody of a show called "31 Minutos". The video had almost the same format as the show, but the characters where plushies that had nothing to do with the original show. The host was a Naruto plushie and the musical parts/co-host was a Pikachu plushie. There were a lot of sex jokes and foul words, but as a kid, I enjoyed it a lot. Every now and then, I try to search for it, but I'm pretty sure it was deleted. I never thought about it as lost media, but I guess it counts
I remember the first screamer I ever fell for. It was a Halo: Reach armor tutorial thingy, I believe the armor it was showcasing was red. Must have been either 2011 or 2012. Has anyone here seen it?
the first screamer i fell for was a michael jackson one right after he died. it was a reporter in the mansion and it wasn’t in english. but it would show a very faint shadow in the back and you’d lean in to see it and it would be a screamer. my mom showed me that one and i swear to god i never fully trusted her again. she and my brother LOVED scary stuff like that but i was still a little bitch who had to leave my closet door open while i slept because my jonas brothers poster was behind the door and i didn’t want them watching me sleep.
she rly scared me with that one. and then as soon as she calmed me down, my brother got me with the maze game jump scare. how am i not the one with drug problems after all that trauma 🤣
First on I got hit with was the one where you had to focus on the signs or something and then a screamer happened, I think it was separate from the care one but I don't remember
I got tricked with a similar tutorial video about getting Recon armor in Halo 3. It had the girl from The Exorcist as a screamer haha.
@@misseselise3864 Is it the one by Cyriak?
I have an old UA-cam memory! I had an argument with a friend of mine about which was better Minecraft or Pixar’s Cars. I was for Cars and he was for Minecraft. I went home that day and searched on UA-cam “Minecraft VS Cars” and found either a stop motion, or recording of someone making a lightning McQueen toy car, and a Minecraft steve action figure fight. At the end, lightning mcqueen ran over Minecraft steve and steve bled ketchup. Believing this proved my point, I showed it to my friend that next day. When he saw it, he cried and ran away. That video has lived on in my memory for a long time now and I’ve never been able to track it down
I used to watch a Lost Media channel named “ShroomTube” who would looking back just read LMW articles. I remember looking one day and he was just.. gone. Apparently he was embarrassed by his old videos and deleted them
i remember them too! stuff like the spongebob deleted/lost scenes video and the double dare lost episode video
Yup, I remember them 100%. I watched their videos at the time because I wanted to learn new stuff about interesting topics and there was much less lost media content at the time.
Since my channel is (relatively) old (april 2008), and I started using UA-cam back in 2006, I've stumbled upon quite a bit of lost media over the years:
-Bigal2K6 - lost videos (2006-2008) - This was one of the first and at the time more popular "ranting" channels, which was a big trend at the time. Bigal's original channel was one of the many victims to UA-cam's copyright purge in 2008 that deleted a ton of channels. Luckily many of his videos have been archived, but there is still a substantial amount that has gone missing.
-Darknessthecurse - lost videos (2007-2008) - Early UA-cam game reviewer/ranter, and also probably the first Sonic-Tuber I came across. Same story as above when it comes to deletion. Many videos have been archived, but many have also become lost.
-Blowshimselfupdude - Lost videos and channel, (2007-c. 2016) - This guy I used to watch a lot around 2009-2010 and is probably the most frustrating case. He made mainly comic book/comic book movie content as well as rants/discussions over a long period of time, and had a significant number of videos with decent views. Some time around 2018-2019 he privated *all* his videos, and unfortunately a few months ago he also deleted his channel, destroying the possibility of his videos being made unlisted at some point. Only 2 of his videos are currently archived.
Drinkingwithbob - Lost videos and channel (2006- c. 2014) One of the earliest political channels on UA-cam, and also one of the more popular ones. His videos would consist of off-the-cuff rants about various topics, he'd usually upload several times a week and was even featured on the news a couple of times. At some point his entire channel got deleted, and while a few videos have been archived, the vast majority are lost.
-SomecallmeJohnny - Lost Videos (2008-2009) - This one actually is on the Lost Media Wiki, but being a very early fan of this channel, I actually remember seeing these before they were deleted. His "Lookback at 3D Sonic" retrospective was one of his first videos, with very poor video quality (pointing the camera at the TV) and fairly short reviews for each game. At the time I was against him deleting the videos, but there was nothing I could do, only a few seconds of these videos have been recovered.
I remembered this channel named Your Choice Reviews in 2013.The videos featured two guys talking about movies. They did reviews for the notorious animated movie FoodFight. While others were Inception and Salo. Most of there content were deleted sometime in 2014.
yooooo I think I remember Johnny and Darkness. so long ago now!
@@chrislondo2683i too saw lost media on youtube , it was video of a ytp which i cant find
UA-cam lost media is a really interesting topic. Because of how strange the internet is, there are so many ways a video can disappear and even more ways it can be found and that makes it fun. I created my channel to try to find lost NetNobody music and videos and although I still have a lot I think is truly gone forever, I did find some cool stuff and had a lot of fun finding them with other people. Lost media hunting really is something special
Incredibly kind of you to raise some more attention for Big Star Secret, thank you so much my guy :)
BRATZ
DOLL
HORROR VIDEOS
omg I use to be OBSESSED with these videos of someone using bratz dolls to tell short stories/ horror stories. I remember one about a ghost that scared me but the effects in it where really impressive. I'd love to see them again
@LUNANDEISU YES OMG!!!!
Back in 2013 I got an adventure time game for 3ds called "adventure time: hey ice king, why'd you steal our garbage?!". I couldn't figure out one of the dungeons in the game so I went to UA-cam, which I had just discovered existed. I found a playthrough by a UA-camr called sullypwnz. In 2019, after not watching the series for a while, I rewatched adventure time episodes and remembered the game. So I looked up the sullypwnz videos. But something strange happened. There were like, 3 videos available, but there was definitely more then 3 videos. I forgot about sullypwnz until 2021. I looked up his adventure time playthrough and it's gone. There is a playthrough for another adventure time game, "explore the dungeon because I don't know," which obviously is a different game and is not what I'm looking for. Did anyone see this series? The only things I remember about the series was sully saying something about pb's "lady parts," and him calling what I think was a zombie a "son of a donkey."
Oh
I do! Although _I_ never watched the videos, my sister, who had "Adventure Time: Hey Ice King, Why'd You Steal Our Garbage", would mention his gameplays since those helped her out whenever she played it. Although the videos r gone now, she had taken like two pictures on her dsi of one or two of sullypwnz' gameplays
@@fairy3731 i wish I could find those videos. The wayback machine didn't do anything for me.
ayo i remember sully too, was introduced to him via cobi's channel
@@fairy3731 The thing is Nintendo 3DS capture cards are rare and expensive, so it's not easy trying to document those games in high quality and upload them on UA-cam. Although camera quality is okay, if it's not too low quality or if I'm just looking for a specific part of games.
I remember the first youtube videos I ever watched were anime amvs- more specifically Inuyasha amvs set to songs like Every time We Touch or Naruto amvs set to Linkin Park songs. A good amount of them introduced me to new songs and genres.
It's still insane how so much survives even today more than 15 years later in the age of copyright strikes but I'm glad we still have them.
I used to watch this channel about a guy that ate weird & potentially dangerous food called Chuck from the Bronx. We all figured one of his food stints finally killed him, cuz he just vanished without a word. There was also this review channel from Reviewtopia called Detroit Mechworks & a review channel on Blip called Wile E Coyote. Their archives vanished after their platforms folded.The latter guy vanished after making a new years vlog about stuff he was planning to review that year.
You know what kinda content has disappeared from UA-cam a lot? Sims videos. They were the nonsensical gatchalife videos of their time, but better, and many got removed for use of copyrighted music(even though it should have qualified as fair use).
Damn. This makes me so glad that I have been downloading anything and everything I can remember liking on youtube from years past. I have almost everything I can think of, with only two exceptions, both being ads / promo videos for products.
same
Yo this is such a cool topic for a video. I remember bringing this up on your stream once: there was this one SpongeBob Band Geeks YTP I remember watching that had the sentence “Squilliam Fancyson from Pokemon”, but that video has completely disappeared. What’s weird is that clip from the video still exists on UA-cam as a reupload but the rest of the video doesn’t. I also remember that the part of the episode where the guy tells Mr. Krabs he has “big meaty claws”, it cuts to a clip of Billy saying “Santa” so in the sentence mix, it says “big meaty Santa claws”. I really wish I remember the name of the video.
@@DefenderJake it doesn't appear to be it
Back in 6th grade (2005-2006, so UA-cam’s first year of existence), my friends and I absolutely loved this video we found titled “Sasuke’s Math Song”. It was a Naruto AMV set to a parody of a kid’s song where one singer is trying to teach the other singer how to count and add, edited so that Sasuke was teaching Naruto. If memory serves, it was all done “slideshow-style” with still images rather than video clips, and the only lyrics I remember is a very quick back-and-forth of “Are you sure of this?” “I’m sure of this.” “He’s sure of this.”
I haven’t looked for it super hard, but it definitely doesn’t show up anymore when I search “Sasuke’s Math Song” in the UA-cam search bar. I’m not even sure what song exactly was used, since “The Math Song” gives a ton of results, most of which seem like actual kid’s songs and not the parody.
Maybe try “naruto math song”
You might not see this, but may I suggest a video on the Nintendo Steamroller?
Basically, in 1994, Nintendo of Europe used an antique steamroller to destroy 10,000 bootleg copies of gameboy Mario games (can’t find the specific one) at the Lelystad Airport in the Netherlands, with a man in a Mario costume helpIng other employees dump boxes full of the games into the steamroller’s path. The bootlegs were seized by airport security from a shipment out of Hong Kong, and allegedly contained characters in blackface, although I can’t source that last bit.

One channel I remember being fond of back around 2011-2012 was CrashmanEXE; a channel that focused on briefly playing classic games, both good and bad, with on-screen captions for narration instead of spoken word (Similar to Whoisthisgit). I recall one of their last videos, if not the last one, was like a history of the channel...and then one day it completely vanished without a trace; the channel as a whole and all videos were gone.
I remember Crashman! That's back in the days when most people didn't have a mic so all commentary was text only.
I remember when I was around 6 and I found a video called something along the lines of "James dies whilst watching Super Mario and Kirby Superstar Legacy" and when the video started I heard someone saying "If you watch this video, you will die". I was terrified and ran upstairs (I was watching it on the Wii downstairs) and told my parents about it, then I spent the rest of the day worrying that I was going to die.
I feel you on regretting to delete old stuff so much. I remember back when I got a tiny bit better at drawing I used to hate my old work and end up deleting them instead of just making them private and now I regret it since I lost the original files and drawings for all my earlier things minus a few on a DA account I forgot the info for until recently.
I hope you manage to find your old videos someday!
This at least inspired me to go back and find some old old youtube videos that I had watched years ago and are still up today. I'm pretty sure I remember my first one, uploaded 15 years ago, although I doubt I watched it then. Probably closer to 10 years ago when I first watched stuff here.
So many YTPs were lost over the years thanks to dmcas.
I think the creator was cjflo, he uploaded this like 20 minute ytp of the lion king that was highly anticipated and it was worth the wait. this was probably... 2010 or 11.
I might be misremembering, but I could almost swear it had 2 million views before it got taken down.
And YTP was taken down for community strikes too.
Like |YTP| Spinge Binge: Me Millionth Dollar
I loved listening to the Living Strings' 'Three O'Clock in the Morning' album and was bummed when UA-cam took it down. That video was the only copy of it online! But it returned a few months ago and I downloaded it so it will never be lost again! I wish I could've done the same for GhostyKid/PureSlime's trio of videos on Concerned Children's Advertisers PSAs... They were privated a couple years ago or so and the only sign of their existence is the thumbnail for the first video on his YT Wiki page. I wish I could see them again and save them like I did with the album! :/
I remember a channel that did MS Paint animations; mostly anime-inspired ones. The one I remember the most being some series that only had one episode called 'Dust in the Wind' or something like that. It was basically a Sailor Moon clone; except guys were apart of the group. The video I vividly remember was called 'Matsuda Transformation', which had a track from Shrek 2 playing.
I remember being nostalgic for a UA-cam documentary about Mr Trololo himself, Eduard Khil. I can no longer find it.
5:20 Funny how we have the same recommendations.
Other than that, I couldn't help but remember this one UA-cam video that's been lost for almost a decade. It was a UA-cam Poop called Mario Patties which is a SpongeBob episode called Pretty Patties. The colored patties were based off of each Mario character. To my surprise, very few people that've found my comments talking about the video actually remembered it. There's also another lost video which I actually managed to create a remake of which is a SpongeBob Tik Tok remix (a song made by Kiesha, not to be confused with the TikTok app). I can't remember the original creators of both videos but rumors went around relating to that.
@BlueEraser I actually have one as well (I can't remember if it's the original or who it belongs to) in my SD card but I'm not sure which version you're talking about. You can upload yours if you want and sadly I can't upload mine as I still need to process the animation and audio and I don't have a DSi anymore.
@BlueEraser funny I also have Just Eat It animation (i remember it had Patrick, SpongeBob, Squidward, and I think Plankton and/or Mr. Krabs) but it's been years since I've seen it). Aside that, that Tik Tok SpongeBob flipnote I have is one that shows one character speaking the dialogue instead of a redraw of the entire video (idk what happened to your comment on my channel unless you didn't mean to post it there or deleted by accident).
I remember a stop video about John Cena and Smash Bros.
Let me explain: there is a prank phone call where someone calls a woman to offer her a PPV WWE event with John Cena, that audio is still on UA-cam, but someone made a stop motion animation with action figures from Smash Bros (Link, Samus, Mario, etc) and the lady answering the phone was Mikasa from Attack on Titan (another action figure too).
But I have been looking for it and I haven't seen it again.
There was a Sonic flash animation series with sprites I used to watch back in the day, but to this day, I can't find it for the life of me. The two big things I remember about it is that each episode started with Killer Queen by Queen, and there was a running gag where any time somebody got seriously injured, they would quote Daffy Duck's blacksmith poem from Duck Amuck.
A long time ago there was a higher quality version of the 1997 Tamagotchi video adventures tape, which had looked like it was cleanly ripped from a dvd version
One of my own personal instances of internet lost media were the Super Spy Luigi videos created by LuigiMario112. Some have been found and reuploaded but others like Lost Money remains lost. It's a shame too because I think Lost Money was the first Cute Mario Bros./Super Spy Luigi video that I watched and now it's seemingly lost to time.
I remember a UA-cam channel videos called Censored gaming, Most of their videos that I remember are gone, those being horror games and older version of paper Mario the thousand year door, sonic X censorship, and a few others, I have archive them on the internet archive and put a list of most that I remember
I remember watching this hilarious Magic School Bus YTP as a kid that I can't find anywhere. What I remember of it was that it was between 8-9 minutes long, was structured more like an abridged gag dub than a typical YTP since I don't recall anything except the audio being edited. Some other things about it I remember are that it was an edit of the Haunted House Sound Cycle episode, characters such as Carlos and Tim spoke in extremely stereotypical and borderline racist accents, Arnold sounded like he was both drunk and high, and almost all of Wanda's dialogue was replaced with Pikachu sounds from the Pokemon anime, and that at one point Arnold says "Ms. Frizzle gives me a boner". If anyone remembers or can find this video, it would be a huge help.
I remember seeing big star secret back in the day but it said it had been copyright claimed or something so there was no original audio and just bring me to life by evanescence playing over it
@Zianna Cambronero No, I remember it getting copyright claimed and having some sort of popular rock song, but maybe not that one
Just this last week I was on the hunt for a channel I now remember was named "AndersTMNT". Unfortunately after finally remembering the name I was that all of their videos had been either deleted or privated. I remember videos like a stop motion series named the mario banjo and sonic show, as well as this tour of a huge game room with all of these consoles and various figures and plushes of video game characters. The only evidence of his existence left besides the now empty channel is a few videos in tribute to him. Hopefully some day either he relists/uploads the videos or someone actually has a copy of them because they were a favorite of mine as a kid.
I remember seeing a lot of sprite mod showcases for Rockman 7FC (a PC 8bit demake of MegaMan 7) on YT during the early 2010s, including some that updated the sprites of Slash man and Bass to match their MegaMan 10 appearances. Most of these videos seems to have long since banished, but I was at least able to download those sprites I mentioned when their videos were still available
This is a great idea for vids. There's a lot of lesser known lost media that we all have come across. Media that in all likelihood don't mean much to others, but can be very nostalgic to one's self.
I remember one of the first AMVs I ever watched, with clips from a ton of Shojo animes I hadn't seen, and a song that I actually had trouble finding for a while ("Alive" by Melissa O'Neil). I noticed the video went missing when I was in high school. It bums me out to this day due to how much I genuinely liked it and how it was a starting point for my interest in anime.
I swear I've seen the L is Real screamer video as a kid. Or atleast another L is Real screamer video of a similar description. I remember seeing Luigi on the roof of Peach's castle? I might be misremembering this, but I think the screen zoomed in very slowly on Luigi's figure before the screamer hit. I remember leaping off the little bar stool I used to sit on by the computer and spooking everyone else in the living room with my screaming. I fell over a bunch of clutter trying to run away from the computer. Screamer image had some wrinkly brown skin I think? It was the video that taught me to be more wary of screamers during that time.
NicoNicoDouga infamously also has a lot of lost media to find. Frustratingly for me, some of that content included uploads of Satellaview archival, which includes some recordings of games which are also considerd lost media... aaahhh, it's getting recursvive!
I love that site a lot but God, mmd movies are dying dude...
I very vividly remember a robot chicken styled mario skit video, I believe it was filmed in the channel's owner's garage, just because the setting. I was like 5 at the time so I barely remember much, but what i do remember was mario texting peach on a DSi via pictochat, and i think some green army men figures. That's literally all i can remember.
Also I say robot chicken styled, because the mouth's moved in a similar manner along with stop motion mario action figures being moved.
I remember a video I watched as a kid about Geno in Smash brawl that I think is lost. It had the player go over the random button and when they selected it and pressed the button to switch alts it showed Geno with his "actual" name, after that it when to pictochat where he even had an entrance animation though the game freezed when the announcer said Go.
Dunno if you're still looking for this but I think this is what you're talking about?

I was a Mario kid. I remember watching some pixel animations on loop but can’t find any of them. Like yoshi babysits baby Mario and Luigi. But I also wish to watch old Mario goes the the park videos. But there’s two I can’t find. A Mario figure series that was like rated r and a Mario and Luigi got to the mall.
Also shout out to that sonic figure series. That was one off my favourite series!
So I re watched a bunch of old videos and remember not being able to find this animations made using smash brawl models. Like Mario introducing Lukas to smash bros and talking to Samase. Then another were the government steals Dk’s bananas and he goes and fights them. I remember a gag were he turned into an anime girl and a heart cube from portal. All I can remember.
Man I remember in the 2000's every video seemed so chill till the end. Screamer after screamer, I had to look at the comments before entering the video; I even minimized the picture because of the fact that I hate being caught off guard. Idk but looking back at it, I'm thankful that UA-cam stopped these videos from uploading. Now you have to search deep for that stuff
Oh God, I am still not over them.
@@maffieduran Same! This phobia ended up staying with me forever 🤣🤣 I make the screen as small as possible. Even when people try to scare me without me noticing, I'll attack with my elbow 🤣 I hope I overcome this soon
I'm sure that screamers and similar bait-and-switch shock content contributed to my anxiety disorder 😂 I've mostly forgotten the horrible days of being so cautious as a kid not to run into anything like that. Hey, remember the Korean ghost comic? That was a real scare!
OH MY GOD YESSSS!! Back in the early 2010s, that damn Michael Jackson ghost screamer got me. Even worse, I was all alone in my basement at the time. I still don't trust certain videos that I find fishy, and I yank my headphones off if I suspect a scare coming.
When I was around 9 one of my favourite channels was GamerGurl21. As the channel name suggests she did gaming videos. She was pretty important to me as I didn't really know any gamers that were girls at the time. My favourite series that she did was were she did tours of her MySims towns. Those videos convinced me to get the game and it's still one of my favourite games of all time. I would have never heard of the game without her videos. Her channel is still up but all of her videos were made private at some point and those MySims videos have never been reuploaded. I get sad every time I think about it.
Wasn't she got doxxed on 8chan at the time?
@@NitwitsWorld DID SHE? I had no idea about that if true!
@@VideogameKitty99 I remember some female let's play UA-camr got doxxed online by 8chan because she stopped making videos so people assume she died so they go hacker mode to find out if she's alive or dead.
I remember one day around 2010-2011 I was watching full episode uploads of kids shows with my sister. My mom had stepped away after putting on Bear in the Big Blue House. Once that video ended I clicked on was, from what I remember, called Bear in the Big Blue House VS somebody shut it down. The best way to describe was essentially this werid music playing and it would show a picture from BITBBH and then some horror picture. I remember one picture being an old hand and another being a girl drawn in anime style with blood coming out of her eyes. This video scared the shit out of my sister and I as we were both 6 and 4 years old at the time. I've never been able to find this video since but I'd love too, just to see what the hell it was.
Is "SYSTEM OF A DOWN VS BEAR IN THE BIG BLUE HOUSE" what your looking for?
Unfortunately, all that is left of the video is it's page on the Wayback Machine, the video is now private, and only the channel that uploaded it is still there. (cryptopsy5)

When I first started watching YT, I was really into making fanvids for Harry Potter, Stargate, Voyager, etc. I spent a few years making them, got decent at it & had a dozen or so done. I don't think I ever uploaded them, maybe a couple of HP ones, but I cannot for the life of me find ANY of my digital work from pre-2014... 🤷♀️💔
I remember when I was really little (about 7-8 years old), I was obsessed with this old computer game called U.B Funkeys.
The game was a lot like Skylanders before Skylanders was a thing, and although the game's life-span didn't last very long, I remember the community being SERIOUSLY dedicated to it (although a lot of the fans at the time were young teens LOL)
There was this entire subculture of the community on UA-cam where fans would make toy videos -- playing with the Funkey figurines themselves and making up little stories about them, which I found SUUUPER cool back then.
I remember this one channel being on there named DaStudios09, and he used to have buttloads of videos where he made up diff adventures with the Funkeys, but suddenly one day; one all of his videos were just.. totally gone! Nothing left of it, and to this day I still can't find any archived videos of him! 😅 I'm not sure if they'll ever resurface, but they meant a lot to me, and it always makes me wonder if other people remember him too
That is the sad world we live in. :(
Fall out boy is my all time favorite band and I just remember being OBSESSED with a ton of animations that had their songs, but sadly alot of them are either deleted or privated :(
most of the stuff i remember watching as a kid that probably are gone are 2006/2007 naruto amvs and "chatroom" videos (just screencaps of a character and then text in the middle of the screen over copyright music. basically a one person roleplay sess). not many of those old ones likely survived corporate youtube. there was also the naruto fan character community back then which was just a bunch of us preteen kids recoloring naruto screenshots to make our own characters and then making amvs with those. sometimes thered be huge collab videos where a bunch of peoples characters would be put together. i know my old naruto amv channel got removed so im pretty sure most of the other kids probably were too if they didnt delete the content themselves.
(i did learn drawing from starting in that community so dont say anime recolors dont teach you anything lmao.)
Awesome video! I remember I used to have UA-cam channels where I made video parodies called UA-cam poops from different channels mainly editing shows like Dora the Explorer where Mew from Pokemon fights her, did one with the Super Mario World Show, and even did one for Meet the Fockers lol. (People hated that one) It was so dumb but they were fun to create. I deleted all of these back in the day and dang I wish I could have those back. On another note, I've discovered that so many videos I've watched in the day are now lost sadly whether for copyright or the channels getting deleted ):
Hopefully some of these pieces of lost media you discussed can be found eventually! I have found old videos that I've been in search of for a very long time so there is some hope!
I have quiiiite a few videos that I remember on youtube that have become lost. I was super active in the warrior cats fandom (and still am a fan but I'm not as much of an active fan) around 2009-2011, and there are several channels and videos I remember watching CONSTANTLY and also quoting all the time that I literally can't find anymore. It honestly makes me sad that I can't find em, even if they werent the most stellar quality...they made me laugh and smile and inspired me as a kid/preteen.
Another one I've been looking for recently is this beautiful animated video of Soul and Maka from Soul Eater to Rolling Girl by wowaka. I remember it being super cool and literally i CANT find it - not on here or NND. It was done in the style of the original video for rolling girl too. I hope I can find it, because Soul Eater and Vocaloid are both really special to me.
I like Fallout Boy too! I got into it much younger though (around third grade)
Another excellent lost media video, LSSQ! :D Man, I think I remember vaguely stumbling onto UA-cam for the first time back in the day. I wanna say it was 2007 when I was 17 years old during my second semester of Sophomore year in high school, and I came across several videos of The Simpsons that my classmates were watching on the computer, I think one of them was like a tribute of some kind talking about the show's history, or something (though, I'm not 100% it was on UA-cam since it was the late 2000's after all), though I don't think it was until mid-late 2008 when I truly started experiencing it, and have been hooked ever since (and of course it was back when the website was good, actually looked like its own style, and was easier to keep track of, nowadays, it looks like any other modern site, which is a shame)! One of my personal favorite genres at the time--and I still occasionally watch them--was UA-cam Poop. I was always fascinated watching people taking clips, and sounds into something unique, and 1 UA-camr in particular that I remember watching throughout the 2010's that uploaded YTP videos since New Year's Day 2008, I think--also believe that's when he first made his channel--by the name of "DKCPlayer", I have always really enjoyed his videos (though I do wish I watched more of them since he did make quite a lot)! Sadly, he did stop making videos since probably around 2013-2014, and while he did leave a message saying that he MIGHT would return, he obviously never did (more about that here: ua-cam.com/video/mOkjlr4cy6Q/v-deo.html), and, unfortunately, in late 2019, for whatever reason, he deactivated his account, leaving all of his videos forever lost (if I had to guess why he did that, it probably had to do with the COPPA nonsense going around September of that year, and he didn't want to risk his channel getting into beyond absurd financial situations (though thankfully, all that garbage was more, or less resolved, but, sadly, it was already too late). However, I also found out that not long after he took down his channel, a channel with his exact same name with "DKC" as well as the letter p in "Player" were in all caps, and his channel icon being Konata from the anime Lucky Star with a silly expression just like with the previous channel. I have no idea if it is him, or someone else entirely, but, considering the first 2 videos were obviously made for 18+ viewers, possibly because of COPPA still going on at the time, I'd like to assume it's still him, but, who knows? (A new video has just recently been uploaded on the channel in nearly 2 years also) You can find the new channel here: ua-cam.com/channels/4ZEMmuSZIKjNu-QyQH4qYA.html). Thankfully, though, many people--who sadly, I wasn't one of them--have archived lots of his lost videos for all to see for generations to come (as long as nothing bad happens to them, and hopefully it never will)!
Your Channel heavily inspired me to keep backups of my content on cold storage! 😊
I even back up Japanese media all the time.
Did you happen to save any Vocaloid songs?
specifically 2010-2014 era
@@st4rdust.k1tty I did not, I saw the MASA video on Nico explaining what happened but I have backed up a ton of Vocaloid videos a few months ago.
Sadly, I was new to the lost Vocaloid songs too.
I have a dedicated external HDD I keep lost media on as they go down pretty quickly due to strict copyright laws for future Translation.
Love your channel my dude! Keep up the good work!
There was a screamer video I remember that claimed that you could find a holographic Ganon model behind Link's house in Ocarina of Time. Most of the video was spent trying to maneuver around the back of the house, and then clipping the camera behind the wall. It ended with a screenshot of what I think was a halloween zombie prop and a loud scream playing over it.
Man, I really miss the old days of UA-cam, especially 2006-2011! I remember watching some sort of High School Series (if anyone knows what I’m talking about, please tell me what it is). The series had a mix of Zoey 101 and Neds Declassified School Survival Guide vibes and it was about how a bully’s action has consequences (I think his name was Kahuna, or that the school was called Kahuna High School or something like that, but I’m not 100% sure on that) got more and more severe as he kept making poor choices.
The bully also had friends that were bad influences on him. I remember the bully pushed some kid’s head onto a water fountain and I think he turned the water on and got his first punishment for it. I think there was also a scene where everyone had lunch outside and the bullies caused a food fight by throwing hot dogs at people on the bleachers. I also remembered a scene where the bullies ended up smoking weed or something by going inside a gym and hiding behind the gym bleachers and they got in trouble for it. Eventually, it got to the point where the bully’s consequences lead him to having to move to a different state with his parents.
I also remember watching a lot of Pokémon Emerald Let’s Plays. I remember watching one where a kid had a Stewie Griffen profile picture and kept speeding up his gameplay, but I can’t find that one anywhere. There was also one by NTom64 and I remember him and his friend swearing a lot, but that channel got suspended. The channel that’s still around by them is Hellfirecomms.
The final thing that I can’t find that I remember watching was a Kirby Squeak Squad Boss Endurance Speedrun that featured a song that sounds very similar to the Chorus of Trapt’s “Headstrong” and the beat of 50 Cents “Candyshop”, but the song had the lyrics “this is the worst case scenario! Dah nah nah nah, Dah nah nah nah, dah nah nah nah!”
I used to listen to this cover on UA-cam of I’m Not the One by The Cars. It was titled I’m Not the One (My Cover on Keyboard) or something like that, with lyrics scrolling at the bottom of the screen with pictures of the band. This was as recently as a few years ago. A while after getting over my phase where I’d listen to it religiously, I never found it again when I searched it up. I don’t remember the channel name either. It was honestly a great instrumental cover, and it was a big part of my high school days. I wish I could still find it. Every time I search for it, it’s suffocated by results for I’m Not The Only One by Sam Smith.
