Without a doubt, 2016 became the year that consolidated the power of social networks. So much so that they played a leading role even in presidential elections, as happened in the United States. Hence, Univision listed Donald Trump as "the most important Twitter phenomenon of 2016."

The journalist Galo Arellano, who made this report, assures that Don Crescencio Ibarra's Facebook video, inviting the fifteenth birthday of his daughter Rubí, was one of the most viewed this year. "A video that did not cost a single penny to his father was seen by 1.2 million people" on that platform.

But the one that swept him away with reproductions on Facebook was "Mom Chewbacca," Candance Payne, whose infectious laugh video was seen by some 162 million people.

The popularity of his laughter made Payne's life change overnight. Just for taking a photo of herself laughing with the mask she bought, even Hollywood producers, the woman won scholarships for her children, several commercial contracts and gained so much popularity that she had several cosmetic surgeries, hired a publicist and appeared in the The Late Late Show Carpool Karaoke program.

Speaking of Carpool Karaoke, its host James Corden was also among the most popular on YouTube. Her invitation to Adele achieved 135.8 million visits, making her the most viewed video of 2016 on that channel. Followed in popularity on that channel was the video of the singer Pico Taro, who with a song of less than a minute, achieved 104 million views.

The third most viewed video on YouTube in 2016 was the video “What's in a Snake's Rattlesnake”, where a father and his son opened the tail of one of these animals to discover that it had nothing. With their ingenious idea they achieved more than 61 million visits.
