How to start a YouTube video at a specific time



YouTube has an interesting feature. You can set it to start at a specific time. I know its bit confusing. let me explain. Suppose there is a video and the interesting part starts at 1 minute 12 seconds. And you want your friends to see video from this time. Then you can set it to start from 1 minute 12 seconds. 
YouTube URLs have long supported the “time” parameter that lets you link directly to any specific time of a video. For example, if you open the following YouTube URL in your browser, the video playback will start at the 1 minute 22 second mark and not from the beginning.
While watching videos on YouTube, right click on it and then select “Copy Video URL at Current Time” . Now you will see the t parameter which is time parameter pointing to current location
