This python script uses Pytube library for downloading videos. One can use pytube directly in terminal to download videos but pytube only download upto 720p directly. Downloading 1080p (Full HD) takes a little effort which repititive also that's why i made this script which download both video and audio stream from youtube using Pytube then merge them using FFMPEG.
