As it stands, his closest competition comes from FunToyzCollector, which has currently accumulated over 7.8 billion views since starting out in April 2011. Whilst some way off PewDiePie's astounding viewing figures, that's still an incredible number.
But lifetime views is not the only important figure for assessing the popularity of your channel. When it comes to monthly views, PewDiePie falls short in comparison to Brit Daniel Middleton and his own Minecraft focused gaming channel - The Diamond Minecart.

Although only one of the top 5 in terms of monthly views is a gaming channel, the fact that the chart-toppers for both lifetime and monthly views revolve around gaming culture speaks a lot about how the industry has blossomed even further in the age of social media and sharing. While some high-profile figures such as Jimmy Kimmel seem unable to understand the appeal of gaming videos, these figures suggest that they are by far the minority.
