- (male voice) Laurel. - Oh my God.
- (David) We're gonna be doing-- - Ah!
♪ (dramatic intro) ♪
- (FBE) So today, we're gonna be showing you the top ten
most trending videos of 2018 from a list released by YouTube
and we're gonna see if you can correctly place them in order
from one to ten. - Yes.
- Great, awesome. - Yes.
- (FBE) We also would love for our subscribers watching
to play along too. Just grab a pen and a paper
and leave us a comment or tweet us on how you did
on this challenge. So, what do you wanna say
to the people playing along at home?
- Have fun. We're gonna beat your asses.
- I'm sure they're very intimidated.
- To everyone watching at home, good luck.
These games can be a little bit tricky,
but I have faith. You can do this.
- Ah yes. Walmart yodeling kid.
- Walmart yodeling kid.
- ♪ (yodeling) ♪
- (singing along) ♪ To say goodbye ♪
- This also had Ellen DeGeneres' blessing, which you know
elevates it.
- I actually love this guy's voice. Guy, he's a kid.
- ♪ (yodeling) ♪ - Aw.
- ♪ Such a beautiful dream ♪ - I love him.
It was big. He performed on stage
with Taylor Swift, he performed at Coachella.
Number four.
- He got that Ellen bump. If you're on Ellen,
you already know that you're probably top ten.
Six.
- You gotta start somewhere in the middle,
but I feel like this one's gonna be at the top part.
Number three.
- It's number one. That's the most prominent
digital memory I have from 2018 was this kid.
- I missed this completely.
- I know Primitive Survival. Is this one of their videos?
- I haven't seen this one, though.
- I love this guy. Well, there's two guys.
- This is so cool. I've never seen this.
- Whoa.
- This is so satisfying to watch.
- Wow. - Yeah.
- Wow, look at that. - Isn't that cool?
- How sweet. Dive.
Oh, he's dead.
- Okay, that's a really cool video. I'm putting pool at ten
just because I personally have never seen it.
- This one goes at number eight.
- I would say nine right now.
- So cool. - Low.
I think that ranks pretty low. - I would say that's a low one.
- Number nine, Primitive Pool. - God, Primitive Survival
is so fascinating. What a cool,
- It's so cool. - Cool channel.
- This, really? - Cobra Kai?
- How much did YouTube pay to get this to trend?
- Who didn't see this considering YouTube
advertised it across the entire platform.
- Could it be that it was one of YouTube's biggest
projects of the year that they were actively hoping
they would win an Emmy for? Could it?
No.
- You gonna make me watch the whole 45 minute episode?
- I've been meaning to watch it, actually.
Everyone who has seen Cobra Kai, - Says it's great.
- Says it's one of the best shows, not just of
YouTube Premium, but of 2018.
- Did YouTube put out this list? - (FBE) Yes.
- Okay, I'm gonna say that that's top three.
I'ma say three.
- Gonna put it as number three.
- I personally have never seen this, but I've heard that
this show performed really well, so I'm gonna guess three.
- Oh, Kylie Jenner. - This one, ooh.
- This was cute. - This one was pretty massive.
- This was such a shock. This year was such a, "What?"
- Very heartwarming, all of the feels.
- I missed this completely.
- It's a baby home movie of a Kardashian family person,
so a lot of people must have watched this [bleep] garbage.
- Does this remind you of you being pregnant this year?
- No.
- I cried at this video. It was really well edited.
I'm gonna put that as number two.
- I'm gonna go with six. Just seems like a safe in between.
- I feel like it would be up here. All right, let's put it
at four for now. - Yeah, four for now.
- Uh oh.
- Oh wow, I don't know this one.
- Of course. This is one of my favorites.
- I'm so curious where this is going.
- Oh.
- Oh my God. What is happening?
- Uh oh. - Oh no.
There's trouble in the brick house.
- Oh no. - I don't know what's going on.
- (FBE) This is a Vietnamese YouTube channel which
often posts sketches including this film,
which is two hours long. - Wow, and it made it
in the top ten. That's really awesome.
- It just goes to show you how wide the YouTube universe is.
I would definitely give it a six or a seven.
- Let's go seven.
- I'm gonna say eight.
- People love the drama, including my mom, including me,
including my nana. I'm gonna put this
as number three.
- Oh, Jesus.
- Nope, I have no idea.
- Is this just a sketch or is this also a two hour movie?
- Oh man. - This could even be
a T-Series video. - No, the production value's
not high enough. - That's true.
- (speaking Hindi) - Heck yeah.
Those are my people.
- (FBE) So, this is from a popular Indian sketch channel.
- I see.
- I don't know what was said, but I for some reason
enjoyed that video. Half court it, number two.
- Put it maybe at six. - I'm gonna say six for now.
- These international videos, I don't know.
We gotta put one at ten at some point.
- Okay. - All right, we're putting
that one down there.
- Yeah, Dude Perfect.
- Oh, Dude Perfect. - Yeah.
- My nephews love these guys.
- Okay, that's pleasing.
- I love these videos.
- Are they real? - We debate this every time.
- Oh yeah. They're from Texas.
That's why they have a massive studio
with a lot of space.
- These guys are the reason my brother in law is going insane
because my nephews are constantly throwing [bleep]
around the house.
- It's cool dudes doing satisfying things.
You can't go wrong. Five.
- I'm gonna put them at number seven.
- I'm gonna put them up on number four.
- Because I love them and I'm familiar,
I'm putting them as two.
- (male voice) Do you hear yanny?
- Oh my God.
- Oh [bleep] this. Oh.
- (voice) Laurel. - Yanny.
- I hear Laurel.
- It's unbelievable that that high of people heard Yanny.
- This was really popular this year.
- (male voice) So, what is the science behind the madness?
- What do you hear? - I always heard Yanny.
- Yeah, Yanny's more pronounced for me.
- Do I put it number one? I'm just gonna do it.
- I still hear Yanny. That was huge, that was huge.
Oh man, that was this year? This year's been so long.
Yanny is number nine.
- That was really big, but that specific video alone
from AsapSCIENCE? I'm gonna say five.
I just put myself in a situation where I have
the next two have to be one and ten,
so I'm killing it.
- (David) This is gonna be a different kind of video.
We're gonna be doing-- - Ah.
- Aw, this is so sad.
- Somehow the funniest breakup video of all time.
- (David) It wasn't healthy for us to continue to be together.
- It's so weird just to even be in this environment
and looking at it and thinking, "Whoa,
you guys saw that?"
- (David) But just not now. - I appreciate that video so much
just because it's the culmination and education of five years
of people breaking up the wrong way on YouTube.
- No matter what, it was the best breakup video
I've ever seen. - It's a great breakup video.
- It's a great video.
- Yeah, that video was massive. Oh my gosh,
that was everywhere. - I was questioning my whole life.
- We're gonna have to put it at two.
- Let's put them at number four. - You got it.
- Dave and I are still friends and it's really fascinating
to see that it ended up on the trending list.
That blew our mind immediately. You're seeing us be human
and for me, I've never been-- I'm not a vlogger.
I don't make vlogs and stuff and I've never been super personal,
so for me, this was a whole opening to a vulnerable side.
For David and I, we made that video just to let
our community know that we weren't together in a relationship
anymore, so for us, it was just for our audience,
but then it ended up on the trending page
and then it ended up everywhere across different websites.
I received so many messages after that from girls, guys,
everyone saying, "You don't realize how much
that video helped me and helped me and my boyfriend
and helped us in our relationship." We broke couples up.
- (announcer) Score at three different world cups.
- Oh no, it's not gonna be ten.
- Oh, sports.
- (announcer) Can he get the shot away?
- FIFA World Cup 2018. This has to be massive as well.
- (announcer) Ronaldo with a shot. Oh, it's gone in!
Cristiano Ronaldo. - Oh my gosh, he's so handsome.
- He did a knee slide. - Yeah, that can't be good
on the knees. - No, it's gotta hurt.
- This was a great game. - Dude, this is number one.
- You think so? - Yeah, but we have to
put it at three.
- So, here's what I've got so far, but I'm gonna
move a few things around.
- (FBE) So, now that you've watched through all of these,
we're gonna give you a chance to make changes.
Let us know when you're locked and remember you get
two points for every answer you get exactly correct
and one point for every answer you're only one off for.
- I think we're looking at a zero point situation here.
- I think David and I's breakup is number three.
- We could be horrendously wrong, but I like this list
and I think it has good rational, Steph.
- (FBE) Number ten is NGƯỜI TRONG GIANG HỒ PHẦN.
- That was number ten? - That was a bit of a free floater.
We didn't know quite what to do with that one.
- Oh my God, I put NGU as number one.
- Yeah, we got a point.
- Oh, okay. I had birthday at number nine.
I get a point. Point for me!
- (FBE) Number nine was School Life.
- Ah, come on. - We were way off.
We were way off.
- Close, but no cigar.
- We were close. - Okay, one point.
- Oh, I got that right.
- (FBE) Number eight was Cobra Kai Episode 1.
- I was close on that one.
- Cool, I'm off by two again.
- Eight is Cobra Kai. I put it as seven.
I get a point.
- Whoo! - Yeah.
- That's two points.
- (FBE) Number seven was Primitive Survival Tool.
- Off by two again. Loving this.
- So close.
- I got it.
- Hey, yes.
- (FBE) Number six was FIFA TV
Portugal vs Spain.
- Ah, come on. - Wow.
- Wow, we had that as number three.
- I put soccer as number one.
- Hey, I was within one.
- (FBE) Number five is AsapSCIENCE
Yanny or Laurel. - Yes, I got that right.
- I thought that was number one.
- Wow, that was big.
- (FBE) Number four is Walmart Yodeling Kid.
- I was one off.
- Put that as five.
- Okay, that's a point. - All right, one point.
- Whoo! - Yeah.
Accidentally-- okay.
- (FBE) At number three, is Dude Perfect.
- No! - (FBE) I'm just kidding.
- Is it me and David? Yeah, baby.
Oh, sorry I called you "baby," David,
but yeah, baby!
- Number three? That is crazy.
- I put that as two. One point.
- (FBE) Number two is Dude Perfect
Real Life Trick Shots 2. - I put it as six.
- I had it as number two and I switched it
to number three. The regrets.
- We moved it out of the second slot
because of your hubris. - Your arrogance!
- (FBE) Number one was Kylie Jenner,
To Our Daughter. - That makes me feel things.
God, they know how to work us.
- I honestly think I did better than I thought I would
be able to do, so I am leaving
feeling really proud.
- It's a strange mix of actual YouTube trends
and outside of YouTube pop culture trends
and it's unclear where those actually mesh.
