Gangnam Style
A 2012 K-pop single and music video by the singer Psy, known worldwide for its horse-riding dance and for setting online video view records.
In 2014, Psy's "Gangnam Style" overflowed YouTube's view counter. YouTube stored views as a 32-bit integer, capped at 2,147,483,647. When the video passed it, YouTube switched to a 64-bit counter. Contrary to the myth of a panicked rewrite, Google had foreseen it.
