You watch walkthrough part 1 of Far Cry 3, you hardly get spoiled. However, on a game like AMFP which relies on surprise, it's completely different.

After all, all these hundred thousand of people who have watched this video lack that common sense, right?

Not really, they might just be people who know they might be spoiled, but don't care, and just want to watch the video anyways. I'm just saying, people who put up video walkthroughs are showing them to people who want to see them, and may not mind getting spoiled. There are people like this who just want a sneak peek, and don't mind.

It just irritates me whenever on Youtube I see comment something along the lines of "Why are you spoiling everything!" when in reality if you don''t want to be spoiled you should just stay away from any form of walkthrough video, as it is usually content straight from the game, and bound to have spoilers to some degree.

It really is "If you don't want to be spoiled don't watch the video." People shouldn't watch it, and go complaining that they got spoiled because they chose to watch a walkthrough video.

You have to take the psychological and social pressure into account as well. Many people probably don't want to watch it in reality, but since it's so tempting and so many people are watching it as well, they might too, and thus may also regret it in return. In those terms it isn't really fair.
