Umm, bumping this thread because this video has sold for $500,000 as a NFT and is due to be taken off Youtube (still there at the moment).

I would have thought it would be worth more than that in advertising revenue.

Charlie Bit My Finger video to be taken off YouTube after selling for £500,000
Published 36 minutes ago

As one of the original viral videos, the Charlie Bit My Finger clip is a little piece of internet history.

But now the much-loved clip of baby Charlie gnawing on his brother Harry's finger will be taken off YouTube after it was sold for $760,999 (£538,000).

The Davies-Carr family auctioned the clip as an NFT, a non-fungible token.

Bids came into their auction page throughout the weekend, but the price dramatically increased in its final hours on Sunday.

The bidding battle was between two anonymous accounts.

"3fmusic" eventually outbid "mememaster" for the video, which has been watched more than 880 million times since it was put on YouTube in 2007.

The clip had been due to be removed from the video sharing platform on 23 May, following the auction - but at the moment it's still there.


It's a lucrative business for those who own viral clips.

The "Disaster Girl Meme" - a picture of a young girl smiling with a fire in the background - was recently sold as an NFT for $473,000 (£341,000).


The mysterious anonymous bidder for the Charlie Bit My Finger clip will become its owner, which means they'll get to decide where and how it can be posted and used in the future.

But Sunday's spending spree also gives the new owner a chance to create some follow-up content.

The auction page says the NFT winner will be given the opportunity to "recreate a hilarious modern-day rendition of the classic clip" that will feature "the original stars, Harry and Charlie".

Now aged 17 and 15, it's the right time for Harry and Charlie to "embrace the next iteration of the internet", the site adds.

The video was uploaded to YouTube by Harry and Charlie's dad, Howard, in 2007, because he couldn't email it to their godparents in America.

The family website says the clip was filmed as "a part of catching random moments as the boys were growing up", and that it "unintentionally went viral".

They haven't said what they're planning on doing with the money.

They have put 4 kids through private school on the strength of this video

I saw the Dad interviewed, he said he wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do but they want the money to put the kids through Uni, and that will more than cover it

…I still say that if someone says something blunt…’ouch, Charlie…’…

[Cherie]

The two kids involved were interviewed as well, both lovely young men with no biting going on
