"Charlie Bit Me," or "Charlie bit my finger - again!" as it is fully called, is one of the most watched videos on YouTube of all time. It has received over 210 Million views since it was first uploaded in 2007.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OBlgSz8sSM

The video of "Charlie Bit Me" is a very simple one, and features a baby and a small child in a chair. The two are Charlie, who is one year old, and Harry, age 3. Harry puts his finger in Charlie's mouth, after which Charlie bites into it. Harry starts shouting "Charlie, that hurts." Charlie lets go, but the Harry's finger still hurts, and the baby starts laughing while Harry keeps complaining about the pain.

Part of the video's appeal may be that it depicts a typical household situation, which could have happened in any family with multiple kids. Despite its simplicity, the video has taken the online world by storm, leading to a "Charlie Bit Me Remix," a song, over 160 reaction videos, spoofs, and even T-shirts printed with a still photograph of the two boys.http://www.zazzle.com/charlie+bit+me+gifts

The video remained undetected for a long period, until November 17, 2007, when it was featured in an cellphone advertisement, showing the ease of putting videos on the phone.

Charlie and Harry's family lives in Buckinghamshire, England, and they reportedly shot the video so that they could show it to relatives who reside in the United States. Although the video was released in May of 2007, it did not catch on until November of that year, after it was posted on the website CollegeHumor.com. By the year's end, the video gad received one million hits.http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/charlie-bit-me

"Even had I thought of trying to get my boys to do this I probably couldn't have. Neither were coerced into any of this and neither were hurt (for very long anyway). This was just one of those moments when I had the video camera out because the boys were being fun and they provided something really very funny."
