Has nothing to do with DNS. You're on the site so it was already resolved. Furthermore queries get cached.
Not all servers are in the same location. There may be issues with a slow particular server or the path between you and the server.

Actually, it could.

I've been told that YouTube have many servers, and depending on the DNS you use, you could get sent to a different server.

Yes, that is the case. Different DNS will resolve to different servers on youtube's network.
