Following Spotify Wrapped, YouTube has released a list of its top trending videos and creators in the U.S. for 2022.
Viewership of the top trending videos surpassed last years, with the top 10 videos viewed more than 650 million times over 55 million hours.
The channels behind them totaled more than 225 million subscribers.
Number one on the list is the farewell message of popular Minecraft gamer Technoblade – the creator’s real name, Alex, was revealed in the video – who succumbed to cancer over the summer.

The Try Guys’ explanation of Ned Fulmer’s affair, actress Millie Bobby Brown’s participation on the spicy show “Hot Ones” and the Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show and a MrBeast challenge video also made the list.
