That would be theft! You can embed the video very easily, and the 'slow down' compared to having the video on-site, is minimal. You could contact the person who placed the vids on YouTube and ask them - but embedding is probably a much slicker solution.

There are a number of Firefox plugins that will allow you to download YouTube videos and save them as .flv files. You will need a player that can play .flv files. (For example, VLC.) Uploading the file to your website would almost certainly be a violations of YouTube's terms of service, and a violation of the rights of both the maker of the video and YouTube. That you are unable to contact the author does not invalidate a copyright! (Note that there is a move to update the copyright laws to more fairly deal with abandoned copyrights, but as I understand it there is no relief under currently law.)

If I remember well, there are some Greasemonkey scripts that add this feature to Youtube pages. :-)
