Yup, I checked his channel, it was deleted. So I guess this is permeantly lost media.
Do you have the URL? If the channel was popular there's a chance it's on Wayback.
(If you had liked the video then check through your liked videos playlist for deleted videos - make sure to click the little three dots and click “Show unavailable videos” first! Then you can copy the video link from there.)
Edit: I should add that Wayback is weird when it comes to YouTube, and even if it has the video page, it might not have the video itself.
The direct URL to the video, if it's preserved, would be https://web.archive.org/web/2oe_/http://wayback-fakeurl.archive.org/yt/ and then after that last slash put the video's ID. (which is the gibberish in the URL that comes after the “v=” bit. make sure to delete the “&list=” and everything after that!)
Then you'll either get an error page or the video will show up. If you get a little play button with a line through it, that means the video exists but your browser can't play it. (In my experience it's always been a MP4 which pretty much anything can play, a WEBM which Chrome can play, or… an FLV, which I have no idea how to play, quite frankly. I think Flash Player if you still have a computer with that around?? Animate itself doesn't work… But that only happened on a couple of older videos, so hopefully you'll get a file you can play!! Good luck )
No I don’t, sadly.
