Youtube All Time Favorites

Anyone who has been on the Internet more than a few minutes in their life has probably seen 60 percent of these videos before, but for those who haven’t, those that missed them, or those that just want another good laugh, here they are again.

1. This video, The Evolution of Dance, dito e the guy dance all popular steps from the 80`s to the 90`s dance music,has won 13 YouTube awards (including No. 1 most -viewed of all time and No. 1 most-viewed comedy of all time). YouTube views: 45,536,393

2. Simply called “Guitar”, video is clickable in the left side of my blog, this video posted by user guitar90 has over 17,694,795 views on YouTube and is the No. 1 most-discussed video on the site. Although this piece is composed by Jerry C-a taiwanese composer-this re play if i`m not mistaken by Funtwo-a korean-is more popular than the original..see na lang my links.

3. Another famous video, err… music video, is by a group called OK Go – Here It Goes Again. Most famous for the interesting “treadmill walk,” this video has 14,691,814 views and is the No. 8 most-viewed movie.

4. Our next video is slightly rarer. The “Real Life Simpsons Intro” has 12,777,364 views and is the No. 3 most -viewed comedy video.

5. Another wildly popular clip is mysteriously called “Hahaha” but features one of the funniest laughing babies that I have ever seen, with 12,454,826 views it ranks as the 12th most-viewed video of all time and the fourth most-viewed comedy video. Quite an achievement for someone who can’t even walk…

6. A slightly less popular video (with a mere 5,603,942 views), our next video is something of a work-in-progress. Its author “Nate” took a picture of himself every day from Jan. 11, 2000 to July 31, 2006--- a whopping 2,356 days of pictures. What a feat! It ranks as the second most-viewed movie in the Film and Animation category.

7. Urban Ninja is an extremely popular video of a young man doing what can only be described as “ninja-like” moves: climbing buildings, flipping over cars, high rise walking… it's simply amazing. With 12,367,833 views, it ranks as the No. 13 most-viewed.

8. The next video is a lowly 64th on the most-viewed list, but it was pretty amazing so I had to share it. Called “9 months of gestation in 20 seconds” it details the growth of a pregnant woman’s belly as her child develops. While slightly less popular than our other videos (with only 4,259,277 views) it certainly warrants a mention for creativity and awesomeness.

9. Our ninth pick is an animated short that was actually written for a Masters Thesis Animation and is simply called “Kiwi!" With 7,720,812 views and a No. 1 rank as the most-viewed movie in Film and Animation it certainly ranks among the top YouTube videos of all time.

10. My No. 10 pick was perhaps the most amazing YouTube video that I have ever seen. Called “Where the Hell is Matt” it details the journey of a young man around the world. His “dance tour” of the world takes him from New York to Sydney and back through Africa and Antarctica. Simply amazing… it makes me want to take that kind of trip. An absolute MUST watch! (6,178,015 views and counting)

Well, that’s it for me. Hope you enjoyed this rundown of my top 10 YouTube videos. I am continually amazed at all the new content out there for people to enjoy, and in this new technology age, it’s only going to grow. So get out there and make some movies, start a blog, tell the world your story.
