3	** As of December 21st, 2012, the video has ''surpassed one billion views''. In ''6 months!'' In that sense, it ''was'' TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt, because the Internet now had a video that reached over 1 billion views.
4	** As of May 31, 2014, the video has surpassed '''two billion views'''.
5	** PSY and "Gangnam Style" have made it all the way to ''UsefulNotes/SuperBowl XLVII'' (2013), with Wonderful Pistachio's [[{{Pun}} nutty]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rE6iiiDdTNY advertisement]]:
6	-->'''PSY''': Crackin' Gangnam Style!
7	** Even further, its notoriety made it [[http://time.com/5141563/gangnam-style-winter-olympics-opening-ceremony-2018/ one of the songs to play for the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics]].
8	* And just to prove "Gangnam Style" wasn't a flash in the pan, "Gentleman" has broken the "most views in the first 24 hours" and "fastest to 100 million hits" records on [=YouTube=]. And has now become his second video to gain more than one billion views!
9	->"We never thought a video would be watched in numbers greater than a 32-bit integer (=2,147,483,647 views), but that was before we met PSY."

11	* Psy dancing ''Gangnam Style'' with none other than ''the U.N Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon'', of all people.
12	* "Gangnam Style" ''broke [=YouTube=]'' by [[ReadingsAreOffTheScale reaching INT_MAX]] on the number of views on December 1, 2014. ([=YouTube=] used 32-bit signed integers for tracking views, where INT_MAX = 2,147,483,647.) This forced Google to start using 64-bit signed integers for views, where INT_MAX is equal to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807.
13	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDSsauHmu6g His completely unannounced appearance]] at a {{Music/Madonna}} concert in November of 2012. Those who were there just assumed M was grafting the lyrics to one of her songs to the backing track of an song that was, then, insanely popular. And then the man himself, after a HELL of an entrance, joins her and everybody went ''nuts''!!
