How these Shorts lists are made

This list has 50 Shorts from 50 channels with 508.7M views in total; the average Short is 1:08 long.

All numbers come straight from the YouTube Data API and are refreshed once a day. Hourly growth is our own estimate: views gained since the previous day’s count, divided by the hours that passed.

We count a video as a Short when it is vertical or square and up to 3 minutes long. Live streams, news channels, and videos whose likes and comments don’t match their views (ads or bought views) are left out, and each channel appears only once per list.

How the ranking works

Country lists show Shorts that clearly belong to that country (the channel is based there, the Short is in the local language, or it is on the country’s YouTube trending chart), ranked by views gained in the last 24 hours.
