What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: YouTube (Odd Danny).
Chip DarnellOdd Danny's video called The Springtail World Record has passed five point four million views, and it's number twelve on YouTube's trending chart in Pets and Animals.
Vera BullockA springtail! I'm obsessed. I haven't seen it, but I'm already obsessed. Is that the one that jumps?
Chip DarnellWe only have the title, the channel and the view count, so I can't say.
Chip DarnellBut five million people clicked on a bug, and I think that's beautiful.
Vera BullockBeautiful?
Vera BullockI'd call it a sign of healing. Five million people sat down for a tiny bug's big day, and the record isn't even theirs.
Chip DarnellWhose record is it?
Vera BullockThe springtail's. And mine now, because I just set one: most views contributed to a video I haven't watched. Hashtag springtail.
Chip DarnellRex, is there a record in your hour that you've actually seen?
