YouTube Poop

YouTube Poop, also called YTP, is a form of editing that is obviously exclusive to YouTube. Its participants are called YouTube Poopers, or YTPers, people who take numerous forms of media, be it movies, children's TV shows, or what have you, and editing the source to be funny, bizarre, otherworldly, or, in rare cases, artistic. Many YouTube Poopers use Sony Vegas (most preferably the most recent version at the time) as their video editing software of choice as it is practically limitless regarding video-editing capabilities, allowing the Poopers to do whatever they please with their sources.

How YouTube Poopers interact with one another
Sometimes, YouTube Poopers engage in a collaborative project called YTP Tennis where two Poopers will take turns editing one source, hence the name. Like in regular tennis, the video editing goes back and forth until the end of the video, like how the ball bounces back and forth between the tennis players. Unlike regular tennis, this is not a sport. For the convenience of the viewers, there may be a watermark of both Poopers (but only one at a time) in the bottom left or right corner of the screen to tell whose turn it is in the tennis match.

Another pastime for Poopers is collabs, a video (typically over twenty minutes in duration) in which multiple Poopers contribute their short Poops to the project. To initiate a collab, one Pooper must announce on their channel that a collab is starting soon, give participating Poopers a deadline to send their Poops to them, and the collab announcer will edit together all of the Poops into one large video. The collab may be themed by a franchise, holiday, or miscellaneous theme the collab announcer thinks up.

YTP vs Copyright Issues
YouTube Poopers, as expected by their usage of copyrighted materials, have a long-running history of trouble involving copyright infringement. Although most Poops, as claimed by the Poopers, fall under fair use, they were more vulnerable to copyright issues than most other videos on YouTube.
