Some of it still works. Some videos still play, but most, I agree don't seem to be working.
Recent information about it:
https://www.kjrh.com/news/national/do-not-panic-but-youtube-is-suffering-an-outageAccording to the Down Detector, the outage is being felt by coast-to-coast by thousands of users.
The reports started coming in of YouTube's outage around 9:15 p.m. ET on Tuesday.
There is no word on when YouTube service will be restored.
don't lie, who thought alien invasion or nuclear war?
E.g. this works.
EDIT: Correction, it did work!
It now says server error 500...
I was working on a few things server side here and noted that embeds stopped working... thought it was my changes and reverted, but it wasn't my fault.

I doubt it.
They probably changed the code or something, and accidentally introduced a mistake. Which has stopped much/all of youtube, from working properly.
i wonder if they restart it, is it like jurassic park?
It appears to be fairly global in scope and has continued for a good 25 minutes by now.

It was nice knowing everyone.
The linked videos in forum posts here show a massive block of random characters.

I had a couple tabs open, so I have a few minutes cached. Tough times.
Actually, tabs that were open already continue to work past the cached place.
Skynet taking over? ICBMs already flying?
Wouldn't mind, if it stays offline, 1990s-2000 HTML internet had it's charme, too

Nope. Totally your fault. You broke it for everyone.
Start preparing the Kool-Aid.
"A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation."
Wow, those monkeys have been going at it for over an hour now. Has YouTube been down to this extent before?
YouTube TV went down for an hour in July during the World Cup, but I don't recall the main site being dead for so long (not that I'm on YT all day to really notice, either).
The home page sometimes redirects to
https://www.youtube.com/?pbjreload=10, which looks just as broken as the home page does. Someone got 10 peanut butter & jelly in the reload.
Now we see a big advantage of P2P systems - no single point of failure.
The Martians have landed in New Jersey!
It's all working again now for me.
