If you are able to access the video from a private drive via google (i.e. you can open the webpage and view it but can't download), what you can try is using your cookies.

Export your cookies and download them using a browser extension (e.g. "Get Cookies.txt" for Google Chrome) and then pass the cookies onto youtube-dl

youtube-dl --cookies <path to cookies> <url>

Use the extension shown in the FAQ. Unfortunately site login procedures are prone to change and be broken by Captcha (etc) protection, making it unlikely that passing username+password to yt-dl will work, but cookies will generally succeed. It may be necessary to send headers that match the browser where the cookies were set (eg User-agent), but not with YouTube AFAIK.
