These are the reports of 'tab has crashed' while I was trying to open youtube. The most recent one occurred when I was watching youtube and had 6-7 tabs open with other youtube videos.

Some of your crash reports weren’t sent to the Mozilla Servers.

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.
