(CBS News) — From James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke” to ping pong tricks, YouTube is sharing its top trending videos of 2017. The list is based on how many people view, share, comment and like the content. Every minute, more than 400 hours of video are shared on YouTube. With its 1.5 billion users around the globe, the online video platform knows the pulse of pop culture and trends.
Kevin Allocca, YouTube’s head of culture and trends, said while many factors can make a video go viral, ones that find success are those where viewers can react or participate in them.
“They’re usually very unexpected and original. Increasingly they’re coming from people who have big audiences,” Allocca said.

Other notable videos that made the trending list include Lady Gaga’s Super Bowl halftime show at No. 6 and children interrupting a BBC News interview at No. 10. Luis Fonsi’s “Despacito” was the most viewed music video with more than 4.4 billion views.
