- No way! - This is what I'm
talking about, YouTube. What happened? ♪ (dramatic intro) ♪ - (FBE) So today, we're gonna
be showing you the top ten most viewed videos of
all time on YouTube. - Oh wow, that's interesting.
- I bet I could guess a bunch of them. - I feel like I'd know
a few of them already. - Did you already do an
episode on this? - (FBE) We've done this once
before with the YouTubers, but it was mostly music videos.
- Oh cool, Despacito. Can't wait to see that again. - (FBE) But today,
we have researched to make a list that does not include
music videos except for those we felt were considered
more native YouTube videos. - So, we're not gonna be
seeing five reuploads of Despacito? - (FBE) Due to what's happened
in the recent years on the site, we've also removed some
of the little kid content, since those views get
out of control and sometimes feel suspect.
- Thank you. - (FBE) And we're also excluding
anything reuploaded from TV, compilations, and videos with
overly sexual thumbnails. - Well, you're down to like,
eight videos on all of YouTube at this point. - (FBE) So with that said,
these are ten of the most viewed videos that you have
to put in order from these classic videos we've put
together. - Okay.
Oh, I'm so excited. - I'm gonna kill it.
- Rob's usually pretty good at this. - We're basically professional
meme farmers. If we can't do it,
we should fire ourselves. - (FBE) So now, we're gonna
give you this. - Thank you. - (FBE) And while you're
watching, we'll have you place the videos where you
think they fit in the top ten. - Got it. - I think I might do okay,
'cause I spend more time on YouTube.
- He spends a lot of time on YouTube. - ♪ When the duck walked
up to the lemonade stand ♪ - No way! - Oh, I know this one. - ♪ Running the stand
Hey, bum bum bum ♪ - (singing along)
♪ Got any grapes? ♪ - This is the pinnacle of
YouTube animation. - This is our competition.
Animation. - (duck) Goodbye.
♪ Then he waddled away ♪ - How is it possible I
haven't seen this? - (singing along) ♪ Then
he waddled away ♪ ♪ Waddle, waddle, waddle ♪ - ♪ Then he waddled away
Waddle, waddle ♪ - (singing) ♪ 'Til the
very next day ♪ - I feel like I'm twelve again.
I have so much joy right now. - I feel like I work so hard
making videos for YouTube and then I see something
like this and it's the top ten? It's just a smidge infuriating. - Would you say five?
- Six. Okay, five.
- Five. - I remember being surprised
at how many views it had, but I can't quantify how
many views that was. - Let's drop it in
at three. - That's gotta be number one.
I've seen that video so many times, I've racked
it up a couple million at this point. - (orange) Hey apple.
- (both) Oh. - Classic.
Annoying Orange. - Dane Boe. - This is the first one,
isn't it? Is this the first
Annoying Orange? - God, this was a phenomenon. - (orange) Say apple again? - I mean, it's just so good.
- Yellow teeth. - (apple) 400 times
you said it. - Annoying Orange, legends.
- What? - My little brother is
nine years old and he watches the Annoying Orange
gaming to this day. - So many times I'd go
to retail stores and they had Annoying Orange merch
everywhere. They made a phenomenon. - I would say seven
for Annoying Orange. - I'm thinking seven or eight.
- Seven, okay. - I'm gonna put it at eight.
These are giving me such throwbacks. - (cameraman) I went
to the fridge. - Oh, I love this one! - One of my favorite videos. - This is so good.
- I haven't seen this. - (cameraman) You know
that bacon that's maple? The maple flavored?
- (dog) The maple kind, yeah. - It's so cute. - (dog) Yeah.
- (cameraman) I know who would like that.
Me! So I ate it.
- So good. - (dog groans)
- Oh my gosh. I love that.
I've never seen that before. - You've never seen that? - The could have been,
to me, a whole series of videos. They did a few of them. - That has gone around
the internet. - That's a sixer. - I'll put it at three for now. - That's so the best
bad lip reading I've ever seen. - This is what I'm talking about,
YouTube. What happened?
I'm gonna put that five. - This is number one.
- This is number one. - Oh, this was the top video
on YouTube when we started making YouTube videos.
- Yeah. - Ah, this was so big
and I know for a fact this is high. - This is top three.
Top three right here. - Isn't this one of the first
videos uploaded on YouTube? - This was the most viewed
video of all time until 2008, 2009 when
it was passed by Charlie Bit My Finger,
so we know it's not number one. - I'll put that at seven. - That one's number one.
It's gotta be. - It's number one in my heart. - I'm gonna put that as
my number one. If that was uploaded now,
that would get maybe 300 views. - Slow Mo Guys.
Love 'em. - The OGs who are
still killing it to this day. - Ah, so good.
- It's so good. - I've watched this video
a number of times myself. - I do remember this being
crazy popular. - These are just so
satisfying to watch. - It's mesmerizing.
- It is. - I wonder if Gavin's
watching this. - Hi, Gavin. - The water's like,
"Wait, I can go somewhere? I will do that." - I remember this being
one of their most viewed-- if not their most viewed. - Slow Mo Guys.
I have so much respect for them. - Gavin has always been
super cool. He has worn a Rooster Teeth
shirt in every single Slow Mo Guys video. - Five?
- Five, okay let's try five. - Eight, seven.
- We already filled both of those.
I'm gonna go for nine. - It can't be as popular
as the Duck Song, can it? Slow Mo Guys, I'm gonna
drop you at number ten. I'm sorry. - (babies babbling)
- Oh, the twins talking to each other. - I think this is the first
video we've seen that I have not seen before. - And they said English
was a hard language. - It's cute.
- It's disturbing. - That was the video?
- Yeah. - Jeez.
We work way too hard to make videos. - That is early footage of
The Fine brothers pitching ideas to each other. - Putting it in at
a solid five. That feels wrong because
people love babies. - My bias makes me want
to rank it low, because I haven't seen it before
and I think so highly of myself. That's seven. - I was thinking low tier.
- Nine? - Charlie Bit My Finger
and sneezing panda are two things that I am
surprised I haven't seen yet. - That could be at number--
okay, wait a second. Where's Charlie Bit My Finger?
Can the babies be number three? - Yes.
- That was a big one, but there's definitely--
I gotta save room for Charlie Bit My Finger. - Oh, this one?
The dog spider prank is this high? - Spider.
- Oh, this is classic. Spider dog. - Oh man, that's so scary.
- Oh my gosh, what is that? - Oh, this video still
creeps me out. - The web is so awesome. - That's so mean. - Imagine if you're running
from a spider dog and you see a huge web.
I mean, I would pee myself. - That didn't feel staged
back in 2010, 2011. But that is so obviously
choreographed. - I'll put it at a four. - I think that would go
into six. - Yeah, I agree.
- That was terrifying. - That is terrifying. - Spider dog is going
number four. - Bad move. - Oh, Charlie bit me. - There's our guys. - Yeah.
- Oh, there it is. - Number two or three.
- There's the boys. - I knew it.
I knew it was coming. - See, that's why I'm
saving number one. - (boy) Charlie,
that really hurt! - Aw. - I just love that Charlie
gets joy out of this. - (boy) Charlie bit me.
- I love how happy Charlie is. - Let's put it at two,
but know that we might have to knock that up to one.
- It's probably gonna go to one. - I'm gonna put that
one number one, 'cause that's a pretty iconic
video. - Just gonna throw a
Charlie down here at the top. - Charlie Bit My Finger
is number one. That's a classic video.
That's what YouTube was all about. - One.
The greatest of life changing, paradigm shifting video
on YouTube. - ♪ Severus Snape ♪
- ♪ Ron Weasley ♪ - Ah!
- Oh. - Oh.
- Oh, Potter Puppet Pals. - Oh God, that's gotta be
in the top five. - ♪ (characters singing) ♪ - I completely forgot
these existed. These are so good. - (Snape) Snape!
- (Harry) Harry! - (both) Wow.
- Have you ever seen that? - I've never seen that one
before. - I might regret putting
this at number seven, but I'm going to.
♪ Snape, Snape, Severus Snape ♪ - You're putting it at
number five, 'cause you have a Harry Potter love affair
that's sick and twisted. - Do you see the Deathly
Hallows necklace? - Potter Puppet Pals coming in
number ten. That means the next video
is going to-- it has to be the most popular
video in the history of YouTube. - Oh my gosh.
- Babies. - So many baby videos.
- So many babies. - I don't know if I've
seen this. - Top anime fights of 2012. - This is the sort of video
you just have to wonder why isn't the parent going
to get another pacifier? - Man, they're just trying
to be Charlie Bit My Finger. - I have never seen that
video before. - Me neither, but it was gold. - I've never seen that before.
- I think I've seen it, but I blocked it from
my memory. - All we have left is one,
which is wrong. - Number one,
twin baby girls fight over pacifier.
That's gotta change, though. - I'm feeling pretty confident
about my picks. I'm feeling not as confident
about your weird placement of videos. - (FBE) So, now that you've
watched through all of these, we're gonna give you a chance
to make changes. - I'm gonna put Evolution
of Dance at number one. I feel really strongly about that. - I might go with
a classic here. I'ma say number one might
be Charlie Bit My Finger. - I think number one's gonna
be between Harry Potter and Charlie. - Do you think anything should
go in the number one spot besides Charlie Bit My Finger?
- I don't think so. - I feel like Spider Dog needs
to be up here more. - I think Spider Dog needs
to go lower. - I reckon the twin babies
fighting need to move to number ten, 'cause I've
never seen that, so apparently I am
all of YouTube. - Why don't we move the
Slow Mo Guys and put the dog tease there.
- Yeah, I like it. - I think we're good.
I think we got a good one right here. - (FBE) Okay, so here's how
the scoring works. If you're right on the money,
you get two points. - Okay. - (FBE) If you're just one
off, you'll get one point. - Okay, great.
At least we get a point. It's like millennial baseball. - (FBE) Number ten is
Giant Six Foot Water Balloon with over 170 million views.
- Oh. Gavin, do better. - I had it nailed.
I'm sorry Gavin, I just love you too much.
I couldn't let you be at number ten. - You're number five
in our hearts. - That was seven.
- We had it at seven. - We were one off. - That's what the stakes are?
We're at over 170? Oh no. - (FBE) Number nine is
Mutant Giant Spider Dog with over 175 million views.
- Oh, we got one point. - That's a pity point.
- That's a pity point. - I'm getting close. - So we get a point there,
'cause we had that at ten. - (FBE) Number eight is
Potter Puppet Pals with 180 million views.
- I feel like I have everything flipped. - I put them at seven,
at least getting a point there. - Yes! - (FBE) With over 190
million views, number seven is Ultimate Dog Tease.
- I had that at five. I'm two off on that one,
too. - Oh, we were close.
We put it at six. - Yay, we did it!
- Whoo, two points! - All right, I'm getting
back on the board. - (FBE) Number six is
Talking Twin Babies with over 195 million views.
- Number si-- ah, I was two away. - I moved them all the way
down to ten. - Oh, that we have
on the nose. - Good job.
It's validated. - (FBE) Number five,
with over 210 million views, the Annoying Orange.
- We had him at eight. - Okay, one point.
- We were off by one. - At least I got a point. - I thought Annoying Orange
would be half a billion at this point. - (FBE) Number four is
Evolution of Dance, with over 300 million views.
- No! - Oh no. - We would have gotten
a point, but I made Hank change it, so you're welcome. - I moved Evolution of Dance
all the way to number one. I was so confident. - No way.
I remember how people didn't shut up about it. - Feeling like Charlie's still
in the run, though. I still look good at the
top of this. - (FBE) Number three
is The Duck Song, with over 340 million views.
- I had that at number eight. - We have that at two. - I have it at number three!
Yes! - Oh, we got that one right.
Two points. - (FBE) Number two,
with over 560 million views, Twin Baby Girls Fighting
Over Pacifier. - That's rubbish!
It wasn't even good. - I've never seen that be--
why was that-- - We got it.
- Yay! - That only leaves one
video. - (FBE) So that means the
number one spot goes to Charlie Bit My Finger
with over 860 million views. - Really?
- If you're having a bad day, you gotta go see that kid
get his finger bit by a baby. - I knew it. - Yay!
- Charlie Bit My Finger. Charlie bit me. - We saw it all the way.
I honestly feel pretty good about it.
We got two on the nose. - Lesson learned.
Watch more YouTube. - (FBE) So, all these videos
have been huge view getters on YouTube and the majority
are what many would consider to be classics on the platform.
- Yes. - Absolutely. - (FBE) Now we're here at
Vidcon this year, one of the many signals
of this platform's growth. So, what do you think
about the way online video has grown where we can have
YouTube classics just like we have classics for film,
TV, and other mediums? - I love it.
I love the fact that I've been on this platform
for twelve years and I've got to watch all
these videos and grow up side by side and we're
all still here. - These are our roots.
A lot of our videos are based on how a lot
of these videos got viral. - It's so odd watching those
and seeing how the platform has changed in such a
small time, 'cause it makes you think,
"What on Earth is gonna happen in the next five years?" - We are in a golden age
of YouTube. Fifteen years from now,
I hope that there's a YouTubers React.
You'll wheel us in, we'll be 55 and you'll
show us videos from 2018 and we'll remember how
great they were too. - Thanks for taking this trip
down memory lane. - On YouTubers React. - Subscribe to everyone
on this episode. Links are below. - Catch you later. - Hi guys, JC here,
producer here at FBE. Thanks so much for
watching this episode of YouTubers React.
Big thanks to all the creators who took their time
to come down here and shoot with us.

Bye, guys.
PLEASE STOP USING CAPS
That slomoguys video almost single-handedly earned Gavin a visa allowing him to work for Roosterteeth full time. Fun fact
