Response to videos
I think the main idea that I took away from these videos and the background knowledge I have about things like the numa numa trend and other things mentioned is the way that YouTube allows every day people to do simple things that can quickly become extraordinary for a variety of reasons. They could do something simple and rather stupid and it could become extraordinarily popular be being ridiculed, or someone could record a simple video of themselves singing a song at their computer and if it's shared enough, it will likely be viewed by someone that can do something with their talents and they'll become extraordinarily famous. Social media and YouTube in particular have made it incredibly possible for people to share typical moments in their lives and have those moments turned into something fascinating.
