Using Firefox's web console (ctrl-shift-k), it seems to pick up the URL of:
"http://www.youtube.com/api/manifest/hls_playlist/id/efc6ed6168afff13/itag/96/source/yt_live_broadcast/ratebypass/yes/cmbypass/yes/playlist_type/CLEAN/maudio/1/pmbypass/yes/upn/4seIveUx-l8/sver/3/ip/24.18.126.11/ipbits/8/expire/1345624564/sparams/ip,ipbits,expire,id,itag,source,ratebypass,cmbypas s,playlist_type,maudio,pmbypass/signature/49A1DD88EFE092D59C5ABF52B187D4CEA6512E8B.428EB8078 7A258204F31E050620CCC3206B03A78/key/ck1/file/index.m3u8"

What I did was create a Downloads folder on a storage drive and added ffmpeg.exe to it and then created a getvideo.bat file with the above command line in it. The URL is something that will be user specific, so you need to find out what the long one is for the PC your working from. I used the web console in Firefox, but there are many tools that can do the job. Filter for the m3u8 filetype in the URL and paste it into the batch file with quotes around it. Once you've saved the batch file, open a command prompt window and manually navigate to the folder ffmpeg.exe and the batch file are in and type in the name of the batch file.
I just tried it with the video you mentioned, and it's downloading right now. It's not a fast download, but it's up to 137MB after just about 5 minutes. It's giving me a H264 AVC MPEG-4 file at 1920x1080 and 50 fps that looks amazing.
Good luck!
