“Gangnam Style,” the K-pop sensation that basically owned 2012, has
been viewed so many millions of times that, two years later, YouTube’s
view counter literally broke trying to tally it.
The site is upgrading that tool as a result, a spokesperson wrote on YouTube’s Google+ page.
That means that in the future, YouTube will be able to accommodate
videos with more than 2.147 billion views — which was, previously, the
most views YouTube imagined a video could ever receive.
Mouse over the counter on Psy's video to see YouTube's new math in action. While you're there, hit "play" and relive 2012.
