As an avid follower of trending videos on Youtube, I noticed that not many newspapers follow what is hot and what is not on the famous video sharing website. We discover videos when they are shared on Facebook or Twitter, but newspapers do not take them as seriously as they should. Not anymore.
Every day, celebrities are born and ruined on this famous platform and we never hear about them. These videos make us laugh, cry and dance. These videos shock, scare and most of all, entertain us without fail. So without further ado, let us start with the top 5 videos of note for this week.
Call me, maybe? (Chat Roulette version)
Among millions of videos floating around on Youtube, the Call Me, Maybe parody done by Steve Kardynal stands out by a mile. The video is unique because it carries elements of joy, of surprise and hilarity all at the same time. The video contains recorded reactions of various people on the famous chatting website Chat Roulette as they watch a man dance to the catchy tune of Call Me, Maybe. I won’t disclose all that happens in the video, but I can promise you, it is well worth the three minutes you will spend on it.

What is a cinnamon challenge? It is a form of competitive eating, where one must swallow a tablespoon of cinnamon under 60 seconds, without drinking water and then uploading the video to YouTube.
