Charlie Bit My Finger
{
"Charlie bit my finger – again!", more simply known as "Charlie Bit My Finger" or "Charlie Bit Me", is a 2007 Internet viral video famous for being at the time the most viewed YouTube video. As of October 2022, the video received over 897 million views. In May 2021, the video was sold as an NFT at auction for over $700,000.
The 56-second-long video, which was uploaded on YouTube on 22 May 2007 UTC, features Harry Davies-Carr (aged 3) and Charlie Davies-Carr (aged 1), two brothers from England. Both seated in a chair, Charlie nibbles on Harry's finger, to the amusement of both. Harry says "Charlie bit me" before putting a finger back into Charlie's mouth, who bites down in earnest. Charlie maintains his grip through Harry's increasing protests until he takes the finger out just as Harry starts screaming. Harry remonstrates with his brother, who giggles. Harry, too, soon smiles at how "Charlie bit [him]," although he remains rueful of how it hurt.
On 23 July 2021, the video was marked as "private" due to a change in YouTube's policies that automatically marked private all "unlisted" videos dated 31 December 2016 or earlier. YouTube announced the change on 23 June 2021 as a 30-day warning before the change took effect. In January 2024, the video returned to YouTube after being private for thirty months. It has been since been regarded as one of the videos that bridged the gap between family video and phones.
The Charlie Bit Me "Official Remix" and "Working With Harry and Charlie" NFTs were auctioned off in May 2021.
