Indiana Jones Wiki

YouTube's current logo.

YouTube is an American global online video sharing and social media platform. It was launched by former PayPal employees Steve Chen, Chad Hurley and Jawed Karim on February 14, 2005.

Although the Indiana Jones franchise doesn't have a dedicated channel for official content, Lucasfilm Ltd. hosts its own channel predominantly accommodating their productions which fall outside Star Wars. Amblin Entertainment has its own channel as well and they sometimes upload Indy content due to their status as the producers of the film series.

Behind the scenes[]

YouTube itself was referenced in The Indiana Jones Handbook (2008), a tongue-in-cheek survival guide that cautioned against committing an event like opening the Ark of the Covenant to film. It rhetorically asked the reader if they thought the "the-powers-that-be" who had ensured that an artifact was kept hidden for three thousand years would want it accessible for repeat viewings on YouTube.[1]
