YouTube yesterday published a list of the 10 most popular videos, authors and songs for December 1 this year in the United States.

The first place in the list of the most popular videos was taken by a video called “Bye, nerds” (so long nerds), published on the Technoblade channel, in which the father of the creator of popular content for Minecraft said that his son had died. Technoblade, whose name was Alex, died in June at the age of 23, a year after he was diagnosed with cancer.

The video included a message from Technoblade, read by his father, saying “Hi everyone, this is Technoblade. If you’re watching this, then I’m dead. Thanks to everyone for supporting my content over the years. If I had a hundred more lives, I think I would choose Technoblade again every time because those were the happiest years of my life.”
