What was the longest time it took for you to edit one of your videos? For me it was when I was getting use to Adobe Premiere Pro. ~4 hours, I had no idea what the hell I was doing.
 
My most recent video took about 4-5 hours. Just making sure all the cuts and audio are right etc. Depending on what type of channel you run i think will indicate how much you edit. Lets players may not edit much as where a vlogger may. Just an example :)

I agree, it does depend on the channel. Editing isn't long for the king videos I make but I've seen people with the same niche as me who make some really nice videos and I'm sure it takes long to edit them!
 
Some trip videos with many different scenes took me more than a week to edit. But I can't work more than few hours per evening and not every evening.
 
50 hours or so I think, but I can get carried away with trying new ideas then scrapping the entire project to start over. I also spent about a month to get the right gameplay to add all the stuff in the game that enrages people. Turned into a rant video, and that's my first and only one since, but it turned out wonderful.

The white whale of long edits for me will be taking my 500+ videos, and condensing them into a 20 minutes or so. If done properly, it has a chance to be a video to highlight what I do best anyways, condense. I want to condense my entire YouTube career into 20 minutes of teaching my story, while making it entertaining in a video that has no down time to prevent the ever dangerous zoning out while thinking of something else to watch.
 
I just now edited a video for around 20 hours but that was not for my channel but paid work.

For my channel I guess 15 hours. There are several videos that took quite a lot of time to create.
 
For me 2-3hours depending on what the video is & how long it goes for :)
could be more but i don't really notice the time go by haha so i'm just guessing
