Will a 17-year-old ever manage to reach 2 BILLION YouTube views again? Or is Justin Bieber's latest accomplishment something no teen will ever repeat? Whether it's done by so young a person ever again or not, Bieber, along with his YouTube-viewing fans, can bask in the glow of a totally unique accomplishment.
According to Famecount, an online site that tracks social media, Bieber hit 2 billion YouTube views in the early hours of Oct. 31, 2011. He becomes the first human to get that high and ended his assault on 2 billion with a flourish. With the recent release of his video of the song Mistletoe from his new album 'Under the Mistletoe,' he jumped from an average of 2 million plus new views daily to upwards of 6 million each day. Wow.
