and then subtract that from the world population to reveal the answer ,,,,,!!!

So i did my calculation and get almost the same answer ,, but minus 10 people !!1 dunno who they all are ,, but I'm gonna find out ...I suspect one of them is my brother who plays classical...

so now the total is 3,499,999 people ,..........and I am still looking for the ten missing ................

Don't want to burst your bubble or anything. A "view" just means someone clicked your link and the vid started loading. NOt that thousands of guitar students with guitar in hand went hunting for morao vids and yours happened to pop up and they carefully studied every detail of your vid multiple times. As stated, the increase was due to both his recent death, so massive surge in searches...and of course each time someone looking for the real mcoy happens to click yours it scrolls higher up in the cue of the search engine, regardless if they take time to watch rate or comment. IN other words the more you get clicked on...the MORE you get clicked on. I put up a vid of PDL long ago and just few months after arash put up the vid of Mcguire that pops up top of search engines of "flamenco guitar" and they both hit million views around same time. Now the PDL vid I put up has 3.5 million views. Its not the best PDL vid out there for sure.
