Bypass YouTube Country Restrictions And Watch Videos In Any Country

Earlier we have posted trick on How to watch videos deleted by YouTube, here is another simple hack to watch videos not available for your country bypassing YouTube's geographical restrictions, many videos on YouTube are not available for all countries and users from non-allowed countries are shown the message "This video is not available in your country" on accessing these videos.

Bypass YouTube Restrictions

However, YouTube can be easily tricked into displaying the videos in all countries by altering the URL a bit, for example instead of the regular url - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNIQUEVIDEOID, access http://www.youtube.com/v/UNIQUEVIDEOID (here UNIQUEVIDEOID is a unique 11 character video id code of the particular video).

Example:
Try watching this US specific video using the regular URL - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9ciR9qR1dU, now try this altered URL - http://www.youtube.com/v/I9ciR9qR1dU.

GO TO HELL NAZI YOUTUBE

Yeah, fuckem all. Youtube sucks, I hope they all choke in their own vomit one day! And this should help who? The artists? Watch me download their entire discography.

And I thought Stalin was a dumbass...

siegfried

i can't belive this is happening; i am from Romania, and here many videos are unaveilable because of this geographic restrictions...By doing this, they are encoureging piratery, because we all know, there are other websites out there, not so legal like youtube:))
So, instead of watching them on youtube, where they can put a fvcking ad at the bottem of the video to make theit fvcking money, we will turn the the websites i was talking about...
I think this is a bad choise for youtube, it is driving everynone nutts!!!
And now, if you want to download from youtube, just check your browser's cache folder, there the video that you r watching is being saved:)), just copy paste from there...i tell you this just to get even with youtube >:)
sory for my bad english

you tube is rascist!!!

you tube is rascist!!!

the hack doesn't work

I can't believed I was denied watching a music video for an ENGLISH band in ENGLAND
That's what I call theft

Currently,that little trick

Currently,that little trick doesn't play the title you loaded,it just stops. (at least under Linux's flash plugin)

BUT,the search box that pops up after that - that is fully operational. You can search for the title of the music video you wanted,click on the picture of the most likely subject and it will play regardless of country.

Who'd have thought that flash's closed nature would be good for something :-)?

thanks man!

thanks man for that hint! Is working! ..a little fussily but working!

dusnt really get around it tho ?

the pop up search bar that comes up will search for videos, but it seems the videos it displays are the only ones that will play in you region, i.e the video you wanted in the 1st place dusnt seem to show up, but it will display a different version that will play in your region, seems to be whats happening with mine in the uk

You Genius!!!!

You Genius!!!!

google isn't the world

Use yahoo instead.

the /v/ trick worked...and my friend can get the video up...but when he presses play....it says..."embedding disabled by request" what does THAT mean and can we get around that.

WHY can't we all just watch the same movie..no matter what country? Seems so silly to me.

Thanx for any and all help and information.

Fuck off paranoid content "providers"

Internet is INTERNATIONAL, so who in the hell gave these fuckhats permission to restrict content based on location??? If you don't want people in Europe for example seeing your shit, DON'T FUCKING POST IT ON INTERNET!!! Better yet, keep that shit locked up on your own HD so no one won't see it even accidentally. Now let the rest of us use the web as it's supposed to be used, nazi retards.

Hell yeah! youtube retards!

Hell yeah!
youtube retards!

IT MADE ME WANNA KILL THE COMPUTER but then i rememebered that when i once did that i had to take it repaired so i just yelled at it XD

why most of you being so

why most of you being so a********, end of the day, youtube is just a medium and if the owner of videos do not want their videos to be shown without youtube paying them money, why do you expect youtube to show you stuff for free. get your heads out of your bums and stop shouting in caps, it only makes you look even more dumb.

twatification
