Howard Lake | 7 March 2013 | News
The first nonprofit to achieve one billion views on YouTube is Sesame Street, a production of Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organisation.
Appropriately Sesame Street character Count von Count celebrates this milestone with a video of his own, "Counting the 'You's in YouTube". This video alone has already been viewed nearly 46,000 times.

At three minutes per view, it would take over 5,700 years for one person to watch Sesame Street YouTube videos one billion times.
