YouTube completely crashed on Thursday, right before Google’s (GOOG) scheduled call for its third-quarter earnings. Although some outlets have since reported that the video site is back up and running, we’re still experiencing difficulty watching any videos and can only access the main homepage at the moment.

UPDATE: We are now able to access YouTube videos again.
