Skip Youtube Video Ads With F5


Youtube has started some time ago to display advertisement on their video pages. These ads come in different forms, some are displayed on the page without affecting the video, some are displayed as a small bar in the video, and some are displayed as a short clip before the video even starts.
Youtube displays a countdown, letting the user know when the selected video will begin playing. Most visitors sit the ad out thinking there is no way to hide or stop it.
What they do not know is that there is a method to skip the ad. A page reload, often initiated by pressing F5, will reload the Youtube page.
