There have been quite a few reports about this YouTube issue recently.
Looks like a YouTube bug where JavaScript always interprets a space bar and other characters as control keys and do not disable this action when an input field has focus.

A possible workaround for now is to write text or affected characters elsewhere (e.g. in the location bar) and paste the clipboard content in the search bar or comment field.
There are some bug reports about this issue filed, all duped to this bug where you can keep an eye on.
