I uploaded my first gaming video years ago, before I ever thought about treating Youtube professionally, and now I want it back to put it on my channel. Is it possible to recover it? I'm sure it's still sitting somewhere on their servers.

The video was deleted a few years ago ... and the channel/account was closed/removed a couple years ago, but I still remember the linked e-mail account (it was before Google+) and have confirmed I still have access to that e-mail address. And I remember a few details about the video itself.
 
one you deleted it's gone forever simple fact. the servers have changes, the website has change and how we use youtube has change so its 100% impossible to get a deleted video from 2005.
 
Dang. Makes sense, I was worried it's been too long. I know it's possible to recover deleted videos, but those are recently deleted videos.

The one I wanted back was a Need For Speed: Carbon "canyon drift" run with a Dodge Viper ... I kept a continuous drift through the entire track (that game kept the points going when you switched from one direction to another as long as you kept drifting) all the way through the finish line and got a crazy score. Here's a video that is pretty much identical (same track and everything) and has over 3 million views (paste this in the address bar after "youtube.com/" ... watch?v=4CZ5x9c3NeE)
