is there any way to find cached video that has been deleted from a website?

Really random question, but I used to use a little clip from a Bloomberg interview in teaching - went to check the link today and it's gone...

Is there ANY way of finding it again? Some fairly serious (general) googling hasn't turned it up... Is there a way of searching for cached content/old content??

What video, and what page did it used to be on?

There are ways, but we'd need a lot more information to be able to try them. Whether it could be recovered would depend on where the video was stored, when it was removed, etc.

It's this:

www.bloomberg.com/video/69558860-mit-s-duflo-banerjee-discuss-poor-economics.html

Bloomberg seem (very reasonably) to have done a clear-out. I can't imagine this (short, fairly feeble) interview made it onto any 'must keep' list!

I don't know when it was removed; it was there 18 months ago, but I've not looked for it since then.

Can not find it. They have done other interviews so perhaps you could find something similar to use, though they may not have said exactly the same thing.
Another interview: m.youtube.com/watch?v=MMOzeb2pHg0
