How these video lists are made

This list has 25 videos from 25 channels with 61.4M views in total; the average video is 46:06 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.

Videos and music come from YouTube’s own trending charts (one general chart and one music chart per country). Shorts, live streams and news channels are left out, and each channel appears only once per list.
