The problem is that those videos don't show when shit goes wrong. And that is almost always more important than showing when everything goes right.
The advantage of learning this stuff from another human is that you get their oversight which hopefully prevents you from doing something with catastrophic consequences.
For example: the best video I have seen about woodworking safety is YouTubers talking about their injuries. Specifically the Jimmy Diresta one where he did something dumb which injured his right forearm which took his attention which the caused him to put his left hand into the sawblade. That drove home why you use all the safety features every single time.
