For the first time in seven weeks, DisneyCollectorBR is not in the #1 spot on the worldwide chart. The online catalog of videos of adults playing with children’s toys stayed relatively constant with its more than 93.5 million views, but that wasn’t enough to top PewDiePie. The YouTube channel of twentysomething Swedish gamer Felix Kjellberg witnessed a 10% week-over-week increase in views to top out with more than 95.3 million.
Taylor Swift continues to hold her #3 spot. Music videos from the pop star’s 1989 album won’t shake it out of third place and helped net the destination more than 72.7 million views on the week. LittleBabyBum is next up in fourth place. The online video collection of music videos featuring classic children’s songs ended the week with nearly 70.7 million views.
And rounding out the Top 5 is StampyLongHead. The popular British gamer and Minecraft enthusiast ended the seven-day stretch with more than 54.4 million views.

Top Gainers
The honor of our Top Gainer this week goes to Josh Paler Lin.
The YouTube prankster had a particularly impressive weeks thank to a viral video that may or may not be staged. Lin’s hidden camera “How Does A Homeless Man Spend $100?” video shows the incredible altruism of one down-on-his-luck individual. It might be all a ruse, but the upload still cracked an eight-figure view count and helped give Lin’s channel a 75% week-over-week increase in views, nearly 24.3 million views on the week, and the #48 spot on the worldwide chart.
