What is the most subscribed YouTube channel?

Indian music network T-Series had the most YouTube subscribers in the world as of February 2023, with 237 million users following the channel. YouTube Movies ranked second with roughly 163 million subscribers.

How many hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute?

YouTube was launched in 2005 as a platform for sharing user-generated videos such as vlogs, tutorials, or original series. The site grew rapidly and reportedly had 100 million video views per day and more than 65 thousand daily uploads only a year later. As of February 2020, more than 500 hours of video were uploaded to YouTube every minute, up from a mere 24 hours of content uploads per minute in 2010.

YouTube Partner Program

In the third quarter of 2022, YouTube's ad revenue amounted to over seven billion U.S. dollars. Through its Partner Program, YouTube also rewards uploaders of popular videos with a share of the advertising revenues the content generates. This, paired with the fact that many users of the video sharing platform tend to have favorite channels that they revisit regularly, has given rise to another phenomenon: YouTube celebrities. Although some of these well-known figures were discovered on the website but then carved a successful career outside of YouTube, for many others the site is their primary platform for delivering content and staying in contact with fans, all while signing lucrative deals or promotional partnerships.

Highest earning YouTubers

In November 2022, MrBeast surpassed long-standing most subscribed YouTuber PewDiePie, having reached approximately 112 million subscribers. Due to the high number of subscribers and even higher number of views, these out-of-the-box stars not only have millions of fans, but also considerable earnings from their YouTube activities. In 2021, MrBeast was estimated to have earned around 54 million U.S. dollars, topping the ranking of the highest-earning YouTube creators. The ranking also included social media personality Jake Paul and Mark Fischbach, as well as Ryan Kaji from Ryan's World (formerly known as ToysReview), who started his YouTube career reviewing toys at three years old.

California reported the largest number of homicides to the FBI in 2022, at 2,197 for the year. Texas recorded the second-highest number of murders, with 2,020 for the year.

Homicide victim demographics

There was a total of 21,156 reported homicide cases in the U.S. in 2022. When looking at murder victims by gender and ethnicity, the vast majority were male, while just over half of victims were African American. In addition, homicide victims in the United States were found most likely to be between the ages of 20 and 34 years old, with the majority of victims aged between 17 to 54 years old.

Are murders up?

In short, no - since the 1990s the number of murders in the U.S. has decreased significantly. In 1990, the murder rate per 100,000 people stood at 9.4; and stood at 6.3 in 2022. It should be noted though that number of homicides increased slightly from 2014 to 2017, although figures declined again in 2018 and 2019, before ticking up again in 2020 and 2021. Despite this decline, when viewed in international comparison the U.S. murder rate is still notably high. For example, the Canadian homicide rate stood at 2.06 in 2021, while the homicide rate in England and Wales was even lower.

In 2021, customers at U.S. gas stations were charged 3.01 U.S. dollars per gallon, up almost 39 percent from 2.17 U.S. dollars in 2020. The price of gasoline is significantly lower in the U.S. than in many other countries. At roughly seven U.S. dollars per gallon, customers in Norway were charged some of the highest gas prices around the world in 2020.

Economic downturns increase volatility

The United States saw increased volatility during the global economic slowdown and subsequent recovery between 2008 and 2011. U.S. gasoline prices peaked at 3.62 U.S. dollars per gallon in 2012. Although U.S. gasoline prices dipped in 2013, they remained well above the three-dollar mark throughout 2014.

Gas price fluctuations in recent years

2015 was different. In light of plummeting crude oil prices, U.S. regular retail prices of gasoline fell to 2.43 in 2015 and a record low of 2.14 in 2016. Although the United States is a large exporter of oil itself, U.S. regular-grade gasoline is usually made from UK Brent, and the price of this crude oil fell by more than 50 percent between 2014 and 2016. Prices began to rebound in 2017.

In 2020, China had the largest active duty military force in the world, with about 2.18 million active military personnel. India, the United States, North Korea, and Russia rounded out the top five countries with the largest active duty military forces.
What is active personnel?
Active personnel, also known as active duty in the United States and active service in the United Kingdom, are those individuals whose full-time occupation is being part of a military force. Active duty is in contrast to a military's reserve force, which are individuals who have both a military role and a civilian career. In the United States, the number of reserve forces is much larger than its active duty membership.
Military spending worldwide
While the United States has the third largest active duty military force in the world, it leads the rest of the world in military spending, followed by China and Saudi Arabia. The U.S. also led military spending among NATO countries, which is the most influential military alliance in the world.

What is the county with the most Facebook users?

There are over 290 million Facebook users in India alone, making it the leading country in terms of Facebook audience size. To put this into context, if India's Facebook audience were a country then it would be ranked fourth in terms of largest population worldwide. Apart from India, there are several other markets with more than 100 million Facebook users each: The United States, Indonesia, and Brazil with 190 million, 140 million, and 130 million Facebook users respectively.

Facebook - the most used social media

With more than 2.6 billion monthly active users, Facebook is the most popular social media worldwide. With an audience of this scale, it is no surprise that the vast majority of Facebook's revenue is generated through advertising.

Facebook usage by device

As of January 2020, it was found that 98 percent of active users accessed their Facebook account from mobile devices. In fact, almost 80 percent of Facebook audiences worldwide access the platform only via mobile phone. Facebook is not only available through mobile browser as the company has published several mobile apps for users to access their products and services. Facebook and its core group of products regularly rank among the most downloaded apps worldwide.

I learned Baby Shark is most popular - Jeff Johnson

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
On June 17, 2016, Korean education brand Pinkfong released their video "Baby Shark Dance", and the rest is history. In January 2021, Baby Shark Dance became the first YouTube video to surpass 10 billion views, after snatching the crown of most-viewed YouTube video of all time from the former record holder "Despacito" one year before. "Baby Shark Dance" currently has over 13 billion lifetime views on YouTube.

Music videos on YouTube

"Baby Shark Dance" might be the current record-holder in terms of total views, but Korean artist Psy's "Gangnam Style" video remained on the top spot for longest (1,689 days or 4.6 years) before ceding its spot to its successor. With figures like these, it comes as little surprise that the majority of the most popular videos on YouTube are music videos. Since 2010, all but one the most-viewed videos on YouTube have been music videos, signifying the platform's shift in focus from funny, viral videos to professionally produced content. As of 2022, about 40 percent of the U.S. digital music audience uses YouTube Music.

Popular video content on YouTube

Music fans are also highly engaged audiences and it is not uncommon for music videos to garner significant amounts of traffic within the first 24 hours of release. Other popular types of videos that generate lots of views after their first release are movie trailers, especially superhero movies related to the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe). The first official trailer for the upcoming film "Avengers: Endgame" generated 289 million views within the first 24 hours of release, while the movie trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home generated over 355 views on the first day from release, making it the most viral movie trailer.
