It’s a sad fact of life that not all videos uploaded to YouTube are destined for greatness. For every one that goes viral, there are a whole heap that get viewer numbers of single digits.
Conan O’Brien recently picked a selection of what he calls the least viral videos of 2012. In other words, they’re the worst of the worst, or at the very least the most boring videos uploaded over the past 12 months.
We have some tanned old guy falling asleep, a dog doing absolutely nothing, a tutorial on how to shine shoes, someone reading a book to themselves, and, oh wait, more of the shoe shining guy.
It’s a heady collection of crap videos. The funny thing is that I suspect each and every one of them will now go viral, or at least gain thousands of views, thanks to being featured on Conan.
