There’s some fresh faces at the top of the chart as well, including a new #1 finisher.
Chart Toppers
KIMPRO made its first appearance at the front of the Global Top 50 earlier this year. Now, the Korean channel has returned to the #1 spot. KIMPRO’s arsenal of short-form content continues to make waves, delivering 602 million weekly views during our latest measurement period. The couple behind the hub now has more than 15 billion lifetime YouTube views in all, which is a massive number for a channel that once described itself as “KIMPRO from TikTok.”
15 billion lifetime views may seem like a lot, but it’s nothing compared to the #2 channel in this week’s Global Top 50. T-Series may be our worldwide runner-up once again, but the Indian record label still holds several records on YouTube, including most subscribers and most lifetime views. Its weekly traffic is nothing to scoff at, either. T-Series earned 593.7 million weekly views to finish just a whisker behind KIMPRO in our worldwide chart.
Third place in the most recent Global Top 50 went to DaFuq!?Boom! The YouTube Shorts channel, known for its odd title and its potty-themed animations, dropped two spots to end a three-week streak at #1. Though DaFuq!?Boom! is no longer the top channel in this chart, it’s not far from the lead. As the calendar turned over to June, it received 582.6 million weekly views to keep itself within a stone’s throw of KIMPRO.
CoComelon – Nursery Rhymes finished fourth in the Global Top 50. That’s the lowest ranking for the kid-friendly channel since the start of 2023. It’s a fact that shows just how popular CoComelon is, even though the Moonbug-owned hub lost its long streak of #1 finishes. If 559.7 million weekly views represents a down week, you know you’re doing pretty well.
MaviGadget rounds out this week’s global top five. The YouTube Shorts channel added 455.6 million views during the week that was.

Close your eyes and think about the word “crafts.” Are you imagining artistic, hands-on activities like the ones you used to do in school? If so, you have a different definition of the term than the YouTube channel Crafts People.
The channel imagines “Crafts People” as individuals who work in manual labor and know their way around machinery. Through short-form videos, visitors to Crafts People can witness the construction of everyday objects like cars and highway railings. If you’ve ever wanted to see the amount of elbow grease that goes into a seemingly simple task — or if you watched a lot of How It’s Made back in the day — you might meet this channel’s definition of Crafts People.
Crafts People has been hovering around the Global Top 50 for awhile, but the vertical video hub just completed one of its biggest weeks on YouTube Shorts. Its traffic rose by 62% week-over-week, which took it from 77th place all the up to 31st. By collecting 271.7 million weekly views, Crafts People surpassed seven billion lifetime views on YouTube.
There really is no secret to Crafts People’s success, other than the obvious one: Whoever is running this channel is posting as frequently as they can. Dozens of new Shorts arrive on Crafts People every single week, and with that kind of volume, the channel was bound to break into the Top 50 before long. I’d love to see a Crafts People video that details the hard work behind the channel’s operations. That might be a little too meta, but Crafts People doesn’t seem afraid of new video ideas.
