Well, back in December 2004 when YouTube did not exist, a web designer from New Jersey by the name of Gary Brolsma managed to create a simple home video on a webcam that went completely viral. In the video, Gary is seen lip synching and dancing to 'Dragostea Din Tei' by O-Zone.
When he uploaded the video to Newgrounds, a creative-content sharing platform, Gary did not think that it would go viral. He simply did it so that he could get a laugh out of it.
Happy 12th birthday to 'Numa Numa’, the world’s first viral video! Although it may not be a video that would live on the 2016 internet, watching it will definitely put you in a happy mood in no time.
Take a look at the video below:
