- The man, the myth, the legend. - I always forget YouTube is global.
♪ (industrial intro) ♪
- (FBE) So today, we're going to be showing you the current
top 10 YouTubers of all time. - Oh, nice.
I'm interested to see who they are.
- PewDiePie.
PewDiePie again!
- (FBE) And we're gonna see if you can correctly guess
the order that they'll appear in in the top 10.
- Oh, no. Okay.
- (FBE) We're omitting a few types of channels here, however.
There won't be any of YouTube's own channels,
no music or Vevo channels, and no channels from brands.
We're looking only at channels that would
consider themselves YouTubers. - Oh, okay.
- (FBE) One YouTuber also has their second channel
on this list, but we're sticking to just the one
with the most subscribers. - Fair enough.
- I'm ready. I was born ready.
- (gamer 1) Welcome to the cooking show.
- I don't know if I know this person.
- Gaming shows. Of course.
- Vanoss.
- Oh! VanossGaming? I know Vanoss.
- (gamer 1) First, what you gotta do,
you have to tenderize the meet. Put it between your hands,
slap it up. Yup. - They're in the top 10?
- (gamer 2) Question. I have a question.
When do you go in the oven? - (gamer 1) I never--
I've already been cooked. - Ohh, dude!
I know nothing about the gaming side of YouTube.
- I'ma put you on a seven. - He's really funny.
He and his friends together are pretty funny.
I'm gonna set that at number five.
- Eight. I don't think it's super high, but who knows?
- (elrubiusOMG speaking Spanish) - elrubiusOMG.
- Oh my god, my brother watches him!
- More gamers. Let's go! And they're all playing Fortnite!
- I hope all 10 of them are Fortnite channels.
- I always forget YouTube is global.
- (elrubiusOMG speaking Spanish)
- Anyone who's a gaming channel, I have absolutely no idea.
- Dude, I gotta start making gaming videos.
- I'ma put you on a six.
- You're going eight. - Number eight.
I don't know of him. But again, I don't really
know of anything. - I'll put it at number nine.
I'm just surprised. These are the top 10
most subscribed, and already two of them, I have never heard of.
- (PewDiePie) Hey, it's me. - The man, the myth, the legend.
- PewDiePie. - PewDiePie!
- (PewDiePie) We're gonna talk about a video I made a year ago.
- He is the king of YouTube.
- (PewDiePie) It was about forced positivity.
Remember that video? - I don't really watch PewDiePie,
but I know who he is.
- (PewDiePie) I don't think being happy all the time
is something desirable at all. Now, if you watch my older videos,
I might seem a lot happier, and that's because...
I faked it. - Aww.
I thought it was gonna be because he's number one on YouTube.
- He is very much down to earth. He knows how to talk
to his audience. He's extremely topical.
He knows how to keep his channel moving
where it doesn't get stale. - He's number one.
I'm pretty sure that's a known fact.
- He should be the most subscribed to person.
- Number one. He's the only person who's received
the YouTube Ruby award for 50 million,
and homeboy's at 60 million now.
- I love him! Ahhh! Germán!
- I love HolaSoyGerman.
- (Germán speaking Spanish)
- He's talking so fast. I can't even read the subtitles.
- He talks so fast.
- (Germán speaking Spanish) - (chuckles) That's true.
- No, it's a trap. It's a trap. Ahh!
- I speak Spanish fluently. It's easy for me to watch,
because he's going so quickly that it's like,
he's getting everything he wants to get said in a certain amount
of time, and it makes you intrigued. Like, "Oh my god.
What is he saying now?" - Put him at five.
I've only known one. This is pathetic.
- Three. Everyone that only speaks that language
and not any other languages, they have to--
that's their go-to. - He's collabed
with a few people I follow. I'm gonna put him at three.
- Five, just because I love him.
I want him to be on the top of the chart.
- (Fernanfloo speaking Spanish) - Fernanfloo.
- Fernanfloo. It's really nice to know that a lot
of Spanish-speaking channels are high up there.
- (Fernanfloo speaking Spanish)
- Wait, that's a lot of Spanish-speaking...
There's been three.
- International YouTubers kill the game.
Clearly, I've been sleeping on a bunch of 'em.
- (Fernanfloo speaking Spanish)
- Holy crap! That was amazing.
- Still, nobody from the United States.
I'm just gonna put him at 10. - 10, 'cause I don't know
what else is coming. - Number five. (giggles)
I noticed that a lot on Twitch as well,
that a lot of the bigger streamers and stuff are all international.
- All right, DudePerfect. [Bleep] yeah.
- Oh, DudePerfect. Finally, one I know!
- I know them. They do all the cool tricks.
- (man) Ty, you got a package. - What is this?
Oh, yeah! I've seen this!
- Hooo! That was-- (gasps)
- ♪ A little tune to play to make the good times roll ♪
- Oh, this is insane.
I feel like I've seen videos like this before.
- ♪ Na na na na na na na na ♪ - Now, those are some skills.
- Number four. - Four.
I feel like people are super into that.
- Eight. With trick shots, you don't really have
to understand the language.
It's just about watching the cool tricks.
- Let's say seven. They have such a huge audience.
You see them in toy stores. They have Nerf sponsorships.
- (Yuya speaking Spanish) - Yuya!
(gasps) - Ah, it's Yuya! (speaks Spanish)
- Ah, I've seen some of her videos.
- Is this the first girl we're seeing on the list?
- This is the first woman. Come on, guys!
Equality on YouTube!
- International beauty guru, I'm assuming?
- She was kind of the inspiration almost
to why I started makeup.
- (Yuya speaks Spanish)
- Everyone talks so fast. Is that how you get subscribers?
I've got to start talking quicker.
- I'm gonna put her on a three.
These are a lot of Spanish-speaking YouTubers.
That's crazy. - Seven. I don't know if a makeup
or hair channel would be that high. - She seemed fun, energetic.
I'll give her fourth place.
- (Vegeta777 speaking Spanish) - Vegeta777!
- Dude, there's so many Spanish people, yes!
Viva los latinos!
- (Vegeta777 speaking Spanish)
- It's another gaming, of course.
- I don't even know what this game is.
- Ah, that game was the [bleep].
I loved Zoo Tycoon and RollerCoaster Tycoon.
- He's gonna be on eight right now. I'm gonna change you.
- I'll put him at nine. - I'm gonna say 10.
Based on the clip that you showed, I don't think he's super wacky
and zany, so I don't think he has the kid audience as much.
- Okay, Smosh. They're OG YouTube.
- Finally, Smosh. - (boy) So this weekend,
I think that Emily and I are gonna be making out.
- Ah, it's Smosh! Oh my god!
Guys, I've been watching Smosh since Mortal Kombat.
- (girl) Well, doesn't she have braces too?
- (boy) Yeah, so? - (girl) So you have to be careful.
Otherwise, if you kiss her, your braces get locked together.
Everyone's gonna know you're kissing.
- (boy) Oh-- (cries out) - You guys are gonna
hook up. Literally. - (laughs)
Aww, okay. It's kind of funny.
- I'm gonna put that on two. I just love them so much.
- Three. I can imagine that they would still be up there
just with a younger demographic.
- Two right now. They were the highest subscribed
YouTube channel years and years ago,
so I think they're still up pretty high.
- (FBE) So for this last video, it's in Portuguese.
We're not able to find a usable translation fro this episode,
so we're gonna play it without subtitles.
- Okay. - (Whindersson speaking Portuguese)
- Cool tattoos.
- I'm just feeling a little uncomfortable
that he's got his shirt off.
- He's just using a fisheye lens, no T-shirt, just kind of
chilling in his room. - I don't know.
That kind of says a lot that he doesn't have
a lot of production value. A lot of people always ask,
"Oh, how do you have a successful YouTube channel?"
You just need a story to tell, and you need a camera
and a wifi connection. - FBE's not even there.
Come on, guys. We've got to step it up.
Guys, hit that Subscribe button right there please.
- Number two for now. - I have number three left.
- The only option I have is number three.
- He's getting eighth. I knew that YouTube had
such a giant international market.
I didn't realize that 70% of the top 10 were interna--
no, 80% of the top 10 were international.
- (FBE) So now that you've watched through all of these videos,
we're gonna give you a chance to make some changes.
- I'm gonna move Yuya to number five.
- The dude with the sevens, he's going to number seven.
- Something about Germán just kind of tells me
that he's number two. - You know what? Screw it.
I'm just gonna leave it. Stick with my gut,
and we'll see what happens.
- (FBE) So now that you're done, we're gonna go from number 10
to number one, and we'll see how many you got right.
- All right, guys. Let's do this.
- (FBE) Coming in at number 10...
is Yuya. - Damn it!
I had her at nine!
(ding) - Yes! I got that right.
The one girl in this list is 10. - Dang. I almost made her number 10.
She turned out being the only girl on the list, which is surprising,
because there's so many great female creators out there.
- (FBE) Coming in at number nine is Vegeta777.
- Aww, man. - See? It's already going so bad.
- Aw, [bleep]. - Woo! Okay! We got one.
- Okay, I got one right. - (FBE) Coming in at number eight
is VanossGaming. - Oh, I put number seven.
- I put it at number seven. - I thought since they had
the word gaming in their name, they'd be higher.
(ding) - Yo! What?!
I got it right! - (FBE) Coming at number seven
is Smosh. (buzzer)
- What? I totally put that for number two.
- Noo. They're on seven?! - I'm sorry, Smosh.
(ding) - Yes! Yes! I got that!
- (FBE) Coming at number six is Fernanfloo.
- I thought that he was number five.
- I am so disappointed in myself.
- I put him at number three just because I want him up there.
- (FBE) Coming in at number five is whinderssonnunes.
- Wow. Good job, you Brazilian man, you.
- So that makes sense that people speak Portuguese
need someone to watch. - If he vlogs with his shirt off,
that makes sense, I guess.
(ding) - Oh my gosh! I got one right!
I knew vlogging had to be a little higher up
than some of the other ones. - (FBE) Coming in at number four
is elrubiusOMG. - No way!
- Ah! - No! Gosh dang it!
- I didn't realize they were that high.
- (FBE) Coming in at number three is DudePerfect.
- Uh... no. - I put 'em at 10.
- Ah, no! - (FBE) Coming in at number two
is HolaSoyGerman. - Germán is at number two?!
- I'm surprised by that one. - Oh, [bleep]! I got him!
- That's one! Yeah, let's gooo!
- (FBE) Germán has over 33.4 million subscribers.
So as we mentioned, we didn't include second channels.
But Germán's second channel would come in at number seven
on this list with over 25 million subscribers.
- Holy [bleep]. - (FBE) But even when you
combine them, he still wouldn't pass the number one slot,
with over 61 million subscribers, PewDiePie.
- That is so crazy. - 61 million?!
- Woo hoo! I got one point! - Two!
- I got number one right. I got two right this time!
- Good [bleep], Felix!
- He's been the king of YouTube for what? Five years now?
- The top five one of them I wanna say
was from where we're at. And so, it's just crazy
to see that, 'cause you see it's not only here.
Like, no, no, no, honey. It's everywhere.
- I knew deep down that everything was--
most of it was gonna be gaming. And very surprised that a lot
of these YouTubers are Spanish-speaking,
which is really awesome.
