Uses of the internet are limitless. We can use it to chat, browse social network sites, play online games and of course to watch videos. It is no big surprise that YouTube has become everyone’s favorite site to visit. Millions of people go to this site everyday to watch various kinds of videos.
YouTube does not restrict people from uploading videos in their site. Even if you are not a trained or skilled film maker, you can still share those videos that you captured. Many just use digital cameras to record videos and the places chosen are not usually fancy.
Not only could a virus spread quickly but videos too. They even coined the term “viral video” for most watched videos. With the ease of just clicking your mouse, there is no doubt uploaded clips can easily become a hit.
The video of a man called “Evolution of Dance” in YouTube was watched over 140 million times. Sounds incredible isn’t it? The man showed off his amazing dancing skill with different kinds of dances from different generations. And now, he is quite popular and he is being even invited to perform in parties and other functions.
Incredible talent like this should not be kept. If it wasn’t for his video, he might still be dancing and showcasing his talent in front of his parents, family and friends instead of the world.
There are other ways to get famous and known. He could have just sent his videos in other famous TV programs but they will not show the whole 6 minute dance routine he made. They will just probably show a few parts of it but not the whole thing.
An addition to some popular videos in this site is the Battle at Kruger. A poor baby buffalo was chased by lions into the mouth of a hungry alligator. Luckily, a herd of buffalo saved their baby just in the nick of time before they took revenge on the furious lions.
This kind of video could not easily be seen in ordinary TV channels. Scenes like this could only be seen in the wild which is place we cannot all dare to visit. With 50 million views, it just proves that people would love to see things like this but just lack the ways to.
The spread of funny, educational and astounding videos could never happen to our lives without the presence of the internet. Now we could see how powerful technology in sensationalizing things.
