How many times have you listened to “Baby Shark?”
The most watched video on YouTube, “Baby Shark Dance” by Pinkfong Kids Songs & Stories, has generated at least $22 million in revenue from views alone.
The parents I know probably think all that revenue is from their household alone, but that is a lot of money for a 2-minute and 17-second video!
If you think of all the time you spend listening to Baby Shark when dancing indoors with your kids, that doesn’t even scratch the surface of the number of views on the video!
