Post/Send a YouTube video that starts somewhere in the middle

Change the Starting Position

Sometimes, you’ll want to make sure your friends see exactly what you’re talking about. To start the video at a specific spot, you can append “#t=MMmSSs” to the end of the url (link). You’ll replace the uppercase Ms with the number of minutes and the uppercase Ss with the number of seconds in the video where you want playback to begin.

For example, if I want to jump to the 2 minute, 39 second point in a video, then I would add “#t=2m39s” to the end of the URL (example:  )

This trick also works for embedding a video. Although, when embedding use “&start” instead of “#t” and it’s in seconds only. (example ). Try playing the following video, it will start near the end.

This is GENIUS. And you're welcome that I found it for you.
