The Minecraft 1 TRILLION Views Celebration Video has DISAPPEARED!

Hello it’s me James and welcome back to the channel in today’s video I’m going to be doing another simply Survival Story Time and of course it is raining and quite rightly so because the story I’ve got to tell you today honestly I think it might upset a few people in the

Minecraft community no doubt you’ve seen by the title that the Minecraft one trillion view celebration video is no longer available on the official YouTube channel and when I say not available I mean you can literally go to the official YouTube channel yourself and try and find a video it doesn’t exist

Anymore it’s not there well in today’s video what we’re gonna try and uncover the Mysteries and find out the reason why that this video no longer exists on their channel so I want to take you back to the very store of this story how exactly did I find out this video had

Disappeared well let me explain now one of my all-time favorite moments in a video was when Minecraft the official Channel released the trillion view video at 52 seconds I’m gonna play this right now there is a moment that I have loved ever since this video has come out I’m

Gonna play it for you right now love this bug again whoa that was a mod is that a mod too no that’s a hack is that even allowed technically no but who’s going to stop them who’s that one single little clip in this video I loved

So much and that’s what made me love this video so much Minecraft did do a really great job on this video and after watching this a couple thousand times I decided you know I want to watch the original video you know the We Built This City

We build the you know what video I’m talking about right the Trillium view Minecraft celebration video that YouTube the official YouTube channel posted to celebrate the community’s Milestone that one I was like you know what it’s time let’s go and re-watch that so I decided to type in Minecraft’s one trillion

Views original video and I typed it in and yeah it just didn’t show up like this one the international Spotlight one did that’s not the official YouTube channel this one the video that we just watched shows up I know a few of you guys might remember Mark he did all the

Reference videos he also re-uploaded the one trillion view video so this is actually available to us now but as you scroll down the original video just doesn’t exist like it’s just not there so what do we do we’re gonna go to the official YouTube channel and take a look

To see if we can find it we know on the 15th of December 2021 was when this video was uploaded assuming they uploaded at the same time if we take a look at this video which was around about one year ago and we take a look at

The videos around this time the one trillion video just doesn’t exist now if we click on this and check the date out we’re gonna see that the date will say the 17th this was just a couple of days after the Trillium view video was uploaded so where’s the trillion view

Video as I said it is nowhere to be seen now you can even go and check this for yourself this is like the only video around that time that really even remotes Minecraft the only reason I say that is because it kind of looks like Minecraft is in the background I’m not

Even sure if it is let me uh just check if there’s any Minecraft in this video no actually strangely enough in that video that I was using as an example I just noticed this thank you all right everybody we’re here to kick off something pretty special

You know I don’t think the stage is gonna be big enough so let’s fix that all right yeah I’m not gonna play the whole thing because it turns out this is like a whole Minecraft concert so they left the Minecraft concert up but they didn’t leave that we built this city one

I’m so confused so I’ve confused me it went to Twitter and I decided to act team YouTube seriously what happened to the Minecraft trillion view video I can’t find it question mark and to my surprise they actually answered but as you can see here their answer is a

Complete bot answer I mean yeah there’s no reason here to where the video’s gone so I just replied it’s literally not on your channel anymore why though and after that I literally just didn’t hear anything back from YouTube at this time I also decided to go to Mark’s video and

Leave a comment and see if he had any information regarding this topic now whilst I was waiting for Mark to respond I went on to the partnered YouTube server on Discord I started asking a few questions to see if anyone from YouTube actually worked in that server because

That way I would be you know talking to someone who actually worked from YouTube now although I didn’t actually find anyone who worked for YouTube I was able to get in contact with a admin from this server this is an official partnered YouTube server so I mean this was a

Pretty good contact to speak to and he provided me with this link now look at what happens when we click this link this is a page a website that was covering the story of the one trillion views that we passed in Minecraft on YouTube now I’m gonna scroll down on

This website and yeah it gives you an infinitive answer of what happened to the video we can now see that the video is now private it no longer exists on the official YouTube channel now I didn’t know why they privated the video but before I joined that Discord server

I actually knew that they privated the video yo I just didn’t realize it see before I went to the partner Discord server on the very same day I did a tweet or at least I retweeted my old tweet saying this update apparently no one knows even YouTube didn’t say where

It’s gone leave your theories below the idea behind this was I just wanted to get people to comment and I was going to throw their theories into the video well to my surprise YouTube responded they said this we recommend narrowing down your search W slash I don’t know

What that means these steps and then they give me another bot link which is kind of annoying underneath the bot result which I didn’t notice at the time they said this note if the content is private unlisted or deleted it won’t show up on search results now for my

Response at the time you can literally tell I didn’t really take note of what they were saying seriously though it’s literally gone had multiple people look for it there must be an answer why has it been taken down as I said at this point I didn’t actually know it was

Privated but if I had just looked a little bit more careful it turns out YouTube themselves told me it was private as I said afterwards I went to the partner Discord server and yeah I was able to confirm that very news the video was Private now finding out the video

Was Private was not only annoying but very strange as well considering available online to this very day is the exact same video on the YouTube International Spotlight Channel again the exact same video is on YouTube Brazil and I’ve also been able to find a video on YouTube latino America and

That’s why it’s so strange why have they privated the video just on the main YouTube channel but they haven’t on the other YouTube channels another place you can find this video is on Mark’s Channel he actually did a reference video to this video and also re-uploaded it when

He found out that this video was down as I said earlier I commented on Mark’s re-upload video asking if he had any ideas on what happened to the original he actually replied and said add me on Discord and we can can discuss what I know so far so that is exactly what I

Did I was able to jump into a Discord call with Mark with the hopes to find out a little bit more information on why this video’s gone private now I’m not gonna play you the full conversation because it was quite lengthy but I’m gonna play you what I think are the most

Important bits yeah um I guess I’ll do a quick introduction to myself and yeah I guess why I’m a quote-unquote expert on the subject as you know as expert as you can be like yeah uh so I’ve run a little Minecraft YouTube channel here for a little while

I don’t know however many years um but whenever they came out with the one trillion Minecraft views and counting on YouTube back last December um I was about to go to bed that night and I noticed they released that I was like whoa there’s a lot of references in

This me having been in the community for as long as I’ve been in I was like let me make a video covering the references I actually remember seeing that video like a few times the reference video I think a lot of people saw that video as

Well yeah that’s what this was about to say so I made the video the first time and I made it two more times or a total of four times actually made this video because I was accommodating more references that I missed uh and then eventually the final version came out

And that’s the one that everyone has seen it’s the it’s got It’s got almost 750 000 views wow on YouTube that’s crazy if someone’s seen a video about the references they’ve seen that video pretty much like there’s yeah for sure yeah yeah that’s that’s part of the

Conversation I’ve never 100 sure if it’s private or not I have some I don’t know I don’t know if there’s any like actual confirmation if it was privated or deleted or exactly what the situation was but I do have some details that might hit at one way or another but yeah

So you’re not the first person to have interest in this topic and to have contacted me Aunt Venom had actually had interest in this topic oh wow probably three four months ago maybe oh wow I guess he ultimately concluded that there wasn’t enough details or something for

Him to to look into it any further or something I’m not really sure or he was just busy with other stuff all of a sudden the video just disappeared so I I don’t know there was a few theories flying around but nothing solid nothing that uh I could really understand why

They do it I have no idea to be honest with you because originally I thought it could be supposed to be copyright or something like that but and then so some details for you there right so I have my references video and I also have the original re-uploaded right right

Um neither of those have ever received any sort of copyright claim or anything on them so if mine never did yeah exactly exactly it wasn’t a dispute at least through any sort of automated system maybe through a personal contact to YouTube directly uh right but uh one

Of those things I never received a copyright claim so that is interesting yeah yeah yeah never never received it on any of the five videos I have up not once so I don’t know if you remember this but the in the original video the comment section was broken

Oh really no I didn’t yes I didn’t know the comment section was broken in that original video you would you would put a comment and it just wouldn’t show up so maybe it could have just been like a fault or something with the video I have

I as I say I’m stumped buggy or something but and then wouldn’t they just re-upload it or is it too late that would make the most sense that would make the most sense but YouTube’s kind of you know you know it’s a it’s a big company you know but I don’t know about

You YouTube I think there’s a a lot of people have a love hate relationship with YouTube and this was one of the very few things that YouTube did that made people love them in the Minecraft Community I think I think I loved it people absolutely absolutely loved it

And that’s why I think why I care so much why why they’re privated it because yeah I uh like I said I’m baffled absolutely baffled because people generally generally did love it didn’t they yeah oh no no for sure if you go and look through the comments people

People loved it in fact what’s what’s cool is majority of the comment section that video is preserved because it couldn’t happen on the original video instead it happened on my references video so a lot of the original comments are actually preserved which is kind of cool so a very specific thing is the

Only way that I saw this video getting hate was in who was not included in the videos in in that video I did see it oh that’s interesting I see your point this person is not in this video this person on this video mainly for popular MMOs

Stampy and the big one technoblade but you know I feel like there’s got to be this must be a reason why it’s private whether it’s the smallest of reasons or I don’t know some kind of huge conspiracy I I don’t know I really don’t know but the either way there’s got to

Be a reason isn’t that you know what I mean so somebody somewhere in the world knows yeah I mean there’s someone for YouTube that probably knows the answer of whether it would probably never get in contact with them but there’s probably a few very specific people probably only a

Handful of them that know exactly why although we didn’t find an exact date from Mark we found out some pretty good information regarding the video first of all we found out that the comment section was broken we also can confirm that the video wasn’t privated due to an

Automated music copyright system as all of Mark’s videos has never received any strikes we can also back that up because we’ve seen three other videos on YouTube Owned channels that are exactly the same as the original video no I’d spoken to Mark about the video we were still no

Closer to finding out what had happened to it why is it gone private one thing that Mark agreed with me near the end of the call was that there are a few people that definitely know why this video got privated that for sure we know someone in this world privated that video and

For reasons that I still do not know I was hoping to conclude this video with a answer a definitive answer on why the video is private but honestly the more I dug for answers the more suspicious it seemed to be having had responses from Team YouTube before I decided to take to

Twitter again and try and get a definitive answer apart from this time I tried a different approach instead of adding them with the problem straight away I simply said this acting YouTube hello I’ve got a huge problem was wondering if you could help now the reason I did this is because if they

Acknowledge me now and offer some help they must read the problem afterwards and if they ignore me then yeah it’s just suspicious there’s obviously an answer they just don’t want to give the answer and so my surprise they did actually answer they said hi there can

You share more context so we can point you in the right direction and this was my response yes I was wondering why you put the Minecraft one trillion views celebration video on private the video was so good everyone loved it I don’t get why you took it down it would be

Really great to get some kind of reason why for the Minecraft community and this was a huge milestone I also added a few pictures so they could of course you know not be confused so they knew exactly what video I was talking about I even added some little pictures of the

Video being private and I added this one of the video being private as well right surprise the only response was me adding team YouTube they literally ignored me straight up ignored me so make of that what you will there is definitely a reason to why this video is private but

Will we ever find out I do not know I’ve finished with James and I will catch you on the next one
