It has grown into a media juggernaut, and if a video goes viral, there's a good chance you saw it on YouTube.
Many different videos have held the prized "most viewed" title throughout the course of its nearly 16-year history, but which ones currently do?
To find out, I've compiled a list of the top 5 most popular YouTube videos.
5. “See You Again” by Wiz Khalifa, featuring Charlie Puth (5.30bn views)
With Wiz Khalifa's "See You Again," I must bring you back to time in 2015.
4. “Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran (5.50bn views)
I’m in love with the shape of you ~~ I used to sing thing song with my mates everyday XD
3. “Johnny Johnny Yes Papa” by LooLoo Kids (5.82bn views)
Due to its slightly odd and bizarre nature, this animation set to a classic nursery rhyme went popular when it was continuously memed on Twitter.
2. “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi, featuring Daddy Yankee (7.59bn views)
This massive hit was once at the top of the charts for 1,186 days and has undoubtedly been played at millions upon millions of parties since its release.
1. “Baby Shark Dance” by Pinkfong Kids’ Songs & Stories (9.53bn views)
What else could it be than a music video and a children's video as we reach the finish of our journey? The winning combination for generating views. Since it went viral over the world a few years ago, you've definitely already heard this extremely popular tune. Since then, it's received a lot of attention. You'll have the music stuck in your head for at least 72 hours if you watch it.
