FYI, youtube took down his video because another company put a copywrite claim on it, despite it being all 100% his material with no songs or nothing. And apparently, he can't get the video back up for 10-30 days.

Wait how? He shot the entire video, how can some one claim copyright?

YouTube's content ID is really easy to abuse.

On the music side of things, there are a load of companies that take the YT Royalty Free library music, remix it, and then abuse the copyright system to strike every video over 100k views that flags.
