Viral Video

With the proliferation of the Internet and video-sharing websites like YouTube, a new form of motion picture entertainment has emerged. Known as viral video, these clips are contagiously spread by word of mouth, much like a viral outbreak is spread by sneezing. Viral videos are typically humorous, generally don’t advertise anything and are shared between friends and family. Popular examples from YouTube include the Star Wars kid, Numa Numa, and Chocolate Rain.
