Top YouTube Videos of All Time
Visible Measures, the online video tracking platform, has just published their list of the most watched viral videos of all time.
In their own words: Since Susan Boyle's recent viral video triumph (has it only been three weeks?), we've been inundated with requests for a listing of the most watched viral videos of all time. The questions come in part because people are eager to understand Susan's position in the pantheon of viral video history, but also because the numbers involved have exceeded many people's expectations regarding the potential cultural impact of online video.
Susan Boyle comes in the number five spot with 186,000,000 million views in the less than a month.
Number one? Crank Dat music video by Soldier Boy (above): Not available for viewing in Switzerland though as well as number 3: Touch My Body music video by Mariah Carey.
