I sincerely hope you had it monetized or else you missed out on a bunch of cash.

Of course I didn't monetize it

That is very sad to hear wolf nuts, perhaps you should go ahead and do it now in case it goes viral again.

Nah it'd be a few hundred. I think content producers can't disclose how much they make, but they generally hint it's an order magnitude less than the estimates you'll often see only.

LA Beast was the best. His whole fastest man to walk across the US is dumb and will never happen, but I still watch his videos. Sucks for him that people only want to watch him kill himself with gross food, not walk around.

Also, he made enough just on youtube to live a comfortable if not extravagant life in California and his videos don't really get that many views, so he has to make more than a couple hundred bucks per million views.

The time between videos has grown but now they're almost always 22 minutes long and rock harder than ever

I'm sure I found vsauce through a YouTube thread on here and it's a golden find: basically the best version of the edu tainment videos, like versatium and pbs idea

Remember when you could just browse videos? As in, browse and sort all popular videos based on hard numbers instead of the secret google algorithm. Usually by the most viewed for that day, the whole week, or even arrange by most commented.

In 2006 this was legit useful, although it began getting swamped over time with eastern european politics, and soccer clips. Still, it was a good snapshot as to what was popping off on the global internet. Then they introduced "popular" videos filter, making the "most viewed" tab no longer the default- but still available! Then the most viewed vids for the day got their own page, called Youtube Charts. Then they erased youtube charts.
