A bit of YouTube nostalgia!

First Ever Youtube Video – Me at the Zoo

Most viewed video on Youtube of all time…

And of course no look back at YouTube would be complete without the most viewed video… Psy – Gangnam Style with just over 2.3 Billion views at time of writing.

And now for my personal favourite video!
