500 Internal Server Error Sorry, something went wrong.

A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation.

If you see them, send them this information as text (screenshots frighten them):

not something you see very often.

It's back up now. It's still weird to see a 500 error on a Google Property.

Think this is the second time in +10 years I've seen youtube be like this

I've seen a few 500 errors with Google properties were recent. They were both in the past 2 weeks. YouTube, today. Gmail about a week ago while setting up a new account, I got a 500 error while trying to sign into the account.

Many years ago I ran into a couple errors involved with Google Search. I think one of them was an Unprocessable Entity and the rest were 500 errors.

yeah, pretty down https://i.imgur.com/CfhzHU0.png

EDIT: and it is back up

Now it's back online!
