OK, even if you conceded that a large portion of these stats are people watching other people eat sandwiches or pull off Jackass-like stunts, the leftover is still enough to convince you that you've got to have some presence on YouTube.

Without further delay, here are the high points, thanks to searchenginewatch.com.

• 4 billion videos are watched worldwide on YouTube daily.
• Every second, one hour of video is uploaded to YouTube.
• 24 hours of video is uploaded every 24 seconds.
• 9 months of video is uploaded every two hours.
• A decade’s worth of video is uploaded every day.
• Every 10 days, a century of video is uploaded.

Absolutely mind-boggling, although with content like this, it's hard not to believe that the stats wouldn't be higher. OK, we have a personal connection to this one, but still.
