The popular video sharing website YouTube, as well as YouTube TV and YouTube Music, went down on Tuesday and people were not happy about it. 

Thanks for your reports about YouTube, YouTube TV and YouTube Music access issues. We're working on resolving this and will let you know once fixed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will keep you updated.

Shortly after the technical difficulties began happening, the company, which is owned by Google, was able to get their services back up and running. 

We're back! Thanks for all of your patience. If you continue to experience issues, please let us know. https://t.co/NVU5GP7Sy6
