“The clip received 70 million views in under 8 months. At that time, it was rated on YouTube as: #1 Most Viewed All Time Video on YouTube.com.” - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judson_Laipply

“He uploaded the dance to YouTube on April 6th, 2006.” - https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/evolution-of-dance

Now mfs like Mr Beast get 60M views in 24 hours. Crazy how the scale of these numbers have changed.

Videos of this era that reached a million views would get a segment on national news programs. Now they’re a dime a dozen.
