The first YouTube video was made 15 years ago this month

 The first YouTube video was uploaded this month 15 years ago today.

 The video was uploaded on April 23, 2005 by YouTube co-founder Javed Karim.  Javed recorded the 18-second video while standing in front of an elephant herd at a San Diego zoo.

 In the video, he talks about elephant trunks.  Didn't request to like, comment or subscribe at the end of the video.  "That's all for today," he concluded.

 The video titled 'Me at the Zoo' was released on YouTube from the 'Javed' channel.  No more videos have been uploaded to the channel since then.  So far the video has been viewed 90 million times.

 Chad Hurley, Steve Chen and Javed Karim of Bangladeshi descent took to YouTube in San Francisco.  The three co-founders were employees of PayPal, a popular online transaction medium.  On October 6, 2006, Google bought YouTube for 1.65 billion.  Although Javed's share on YouTube is low, he earned ৬ 84 million due to Google's share price.

 Now YouTube is one of the most popular sites in the world.  The number of users of the site is more than 200 crores every month.
