Unexpected popularity on YouTube.

[MrNeeds]

Just uploaded a video on YouTube last night of a rare and rather beautiful meteorite shooting across the sky while I was out for a cig with the GF, just happened to be more than popular and has recieved in excess of 30,000 views on YouTube within 22 hours of original post time, here's the footage :


It was featured on BBC news, the Telegraph- http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/space/9559670/Spectacular-meteor-shower-over-Britain.html

and Al Jazeera news, popular beyond belief.

Also featured on metro site as well : http://www.metro.co.uk/news/912857-fireball-like-meteor-spotted-in-night-sky-across-uk

...but the Telegraph vid seems to be a compilation of two videos. I'm not sure that you are getting anything from that.

Wow, nice video. Thanks for sharing!

I don't get royalties from allowing news sites to report it as long as they credit my video, I make money off advertisements on YouTube itself, the ads in the video and the ads on the right, I get about 30 pence per ad click.

Thanks Dinesh, how are you and Kavita?
