Also slight correction - Some of the 50 Million Play Buttons were not made by YouTube but in fact a YouTuber called Daniel Krafft!

Fun Fact 41: Did you know that YouTube used to have a dislike count?

Hey Arun, regarding Numberphile's 301 vid at 5:07, the host, Brady Haran, actually explained what was going on with this on his and CGP Grey's podcast "Hello Internet". It's not so much a mystery but rather Youtube playfully going along with the theme. He was manually contacted by Youtube asking permission if they could stop the counter at 301 to add to the experience of the video while he will have access to the real view count 🙂

Arun is the only person on whole youtube who is not getting any second skipped from me. From 1st till last, each and every word is absolutely well crafted. Hats off to you man. Keep it up. Really proud of you. 🥰

7:56 You can also use number keys to jump to 0%, 10%, 20% etc runtime.
And ctrl+arrow keys to jump to prev/next chapter if the video has those

Another fun fact: yt's age restrictions used to be a warning instead of not allowing underage accounts or others on indigo mode to watch them, they still use the warning, but only in a video that are extremely inappropriate offense according to their guidelines, and instead of using the same warning for videos of suicide or self harm like in the past, they gave them a special warning

Edit: LMFAOOO I MENT INCOGNITO MODE-

At 7:00, YouTube stopped giving out the 50 million custom awards because there are way too many channels hitting 50 million these days. The MrBeast award as well as the Dude Perfect award you used in the video isn't from YouTube, they were 3D printed by Daniel Krafft and gifted to them.

[SpizNitrate]

that ending was perfectly executed, the "thank you for spending 12 minutes on this one" while the video was on point 12 minutes, made my day for no reason

Me when i see 'comment Mrwhosemyfriends' on the document at 3:09 : *Types it as fast as i can*

[mcmaschio]

Correction at 7:00
The custom play buttons were given by Youtube to only Pewdiepie and T-Series. The other custom play buttons to MrBeast and Dude Perfect were actually made by another Youtuber called Daniel Krafft.

[itsthefrock]

I can't believe he actually Rickrolled us with a YouTube Play Button 💀

[yourlocalnita]

10:53 fun fact: I always had this playlist in my playlist since 2019 I think because when I was younger I used to watch these all the time and it hasn't left my playlist ever since. (I NEVER EVEN KNEW THAT THIS WAS THE MOST VIEWED PLAYLIST) I was a true OG lol

[anonymousme]

3:27 I've been doing the swipe down for months lmao. I thought everyone knew.

[ccfreakMetal]

YouTube: "Lets make a dating website!"
First video ever uploaded: "Me at the zoo"
YouTube: "Yeah... this isn't gonna work.."

[calebsuttles]

Bruh.. I just got rickrolled by a gold play button 7:20

[leonnganga]

5:49 that john cena you cant see me was a cool and fun addition

[mithunbalajimg]

Hi, just letting you know in 7:05 that the play buttons of dude perfect and Mr beast were not given by YouTube. They were given to them by another content creator who worked hard. Please credit them! Thank you
