I agree. According to Google, there are 365,242 days in 1000 years. The official youtube blog states that, as of January 23, 2012, an hour of video is uploaded every second. So that means there are 86,400 hours of video uploaded every day, which is just under 10 years of video every day, so it would take MUCH longer than 1000 years to watch every video on Youtube, and that would be if you could stop uploads until you were done.
