The first video on YouTube is 20 years old: How things have changed
Today, YouTube offers everything SNL Skit In Super Bowl Commercial It’s hard to imagine getting along well without a video sharing platform on cute, classic cat videos. But 20 years ago, my first YouTube video was pretty modest. Title: “At my zoo” That first clip shows YouTube co-founder Jawed Karim at the San Diego Zoo. In the 19-second video, Karim doesn’t have much to say.
“Imperfect, here we are in front of the elephants,” he says. “And the cool thing about these guys is that they have really, really, really, really, really long, um, um, trunks. It’s cool. And it’s pretty much everything.”
Ah, Karim. There’s a lot to say. As Al Jolson said in the 1927 film, the jazz singer brought “you haven’t seen anything yet” a sound that was previously silent media.
You can still see the iconic ones I’m on the zoo video On YouTube. And if that’s the case you’re not alone: it has 355 million views.
YouTube was one of the first video hosting platforms and became the largest platform with over 2.7 billion users each month.

YouTube debuted YouTube TV in 2027 – CNET’s Pick Best channel selection with streaming services – And now we offer over 100 channels and NFL Sunday tickets. It also changed the world of music videos and games, and laid the foundation for the podcasting industry.

The famous YouTubers urged him to choose a career with videos, and he watched a YouTube video with tips on video production on his way to an interview on his fateful job. (He got a job and met his wife there, so thank you to YouTube!)
Over 500 million people (using B) have uploaded the video to YouTube within 20 years after Jodkarim pointed out the obvious points about the elephant.
“Cheers to 20 years of YouTube,” says Lopez. “I can’t wait to grab a beer for my happy anniversary and for your birthday next year.”
