How to clone by commit found via commit referencing to different fork on GitHub?

Hi, I'm sure everyone read an article "Anyone can Access Deleted and Private Repository Data on GitHub" https://ift.tt/KmM9QO2. But how to clone the repository with found deleted commit pointing to different fork repository? Let me explain what I mean: I found the webpage-gui providing streaming of videos: https://ift.tt/q6nJ0WB which is based on deleted repository: https://ift.tt/xSrDoUe so I couldn't see the source code of this. But then I remembered this article and followed it's logic I found latest scraped version of that repository on github via archive.org and then navigating to latest commit there: https://ift.tt/ho7Ak3s so I have a commit but I can't access it directly using github because it is deleted. But I could find via archive.org the forks of that repository: https://ift.tt/EvPDctV and then I went through the list and I've tried to find the fork most recently created. And use latest commit on this repository url, and then I found this commit: https://ift.tt/mHw69k0 it seems to be the latest commit I could find. So that's cool. But how to download clone of state of this entire repository after that commit?
