Inactive Youtube account
 
So i've got a YT account that I forgot my pass and also lost access to the phone (temporarily, i have this sim card somewhere) so basically i cant log in there.

What happens if you don't log into your yt account for a longer time? It lives forever or you have to log in there from time to time ?

From what I understand as long as you used the account to upload videos before and/or you watch videos or log in every six months it won't be deactivated for inactivity. Deactivation and recycling happens when they suspect name squatting.

Username Squatting

In general, users are expected to be active members within the YouTube community. If an account is found to be overly inactive, the account may be reclaimed by YouTube without notice. Inactivity may be considered as:

Not logging into the site for at least six months
Never having uploaded video content
Not actively partaking in watching or commenting on videos or channels

In cases of username squatting, YouTube may release usernames in cases of a valid trademark complaint.
I have a three year old account with two videos uploaded. I haven't logged in to the account in at least two years and it's still there.
