Thanks for stopping by, this is 2 minute classroom and I recently hit 1,000,000 views on my YouTube channel thanks to all you wonderful people and so I decided to make a video talking about how large 1,000,000 is.
It took me two and a half years to reach one million views, but PewDiePie gets one million views about every 2 hours, which is 139 views per second. He is also getting about one million new subscribers every week thanks to the PewDiePie vs T-series on going battle.
If you want to help me reach one million subscribers in my lifetime, then hit that subscribe button and we’ll be one step closer.
Now Let’s look at some more fun facts to understand how big one million is. If you were to count to a million at the rate of one number per second, it would take you over eleven and a half days, with no breaks for eating or sleeping.
Traveling one million miles is the equivalent of circling the earth 40 times or traveling to the moon and back… twice.
Consuming one million calories on a 2000 calorie/day diet would take you 500 days and be the equivalent of eating 1,776 big macs, 4,651 snickers candy bars, or, for the more health conscious viewers, 10,526 apples.
If you’re ever fortunate enough to earn one million dollars in a year, then you’re averaging $2,739 dollars a day or $1.90 per minute every hour of every day.
In a similar vein, if you had 1,000,000 one dollar bills and stacked them on top of each other they would reach a height of 358 feet, which is about 50 feet taller than the statue of liberty.
If you’re a bookworm and want to read one million pages, it would take you 27 years if you read 100 pages a day. That’s the equivalent of reading the entire Harry Potter series nearly 237 times.
Now that you know how big a million is watch this video about how small one million is, it’s equally mind blowing. And don’t forget to subscribe to PewDiePie so he can hit his million subs this week.
Thanks for watching, and i’ll catch you next time.
