The brothers from the famous “Charlie Bit My Finger” YouTube video, Charlie and Harry, are now 9 and 11 years old and talking about the video uploaded in 2007 when they were just 1 and 3 years old.
The brothers, who now have two younger brothers as well, sat down with the BBC eight years later. YouTube celebrated its 10-year anniversary recently and Charlie and Harry are arguably some of its biggest stars.
They said the video was only uploaded to YouTube because it was too large to fit in an email to their godfather in the U.S. at the time. It has made the family some extra money through endorsement deals and advertisements.
“It makes me laugh,” said Harry, with Charlie adding of the approximately 815 million views, “I think it’s a bit odd that those people have watched it.”
They were also asked if they’re “embarrassed” of the video, to which they said they were not. They proved that by recreating the video during the interview.
