Trajectory cone

At Day 125, fewer than five other videos on this channel have reached this age — too small a window to compare honestly yet.

Chart loading.

The shaded band is where other videos on this channel sat at each day after publish; the dashed line is the middle — per-day views, not cumulative.

At day 10, this video’s cumulative-views curve sat closest to Billie Eilish fans here! at the same age. Billie Eilish fans here! has since reached 1.0K views by day 13. Comparison drew on 15 videos on this channel that reached day 10.

Shape-similar, not outcome-identical — worth noting as context, not as a forecast.

15.5× this channel's Day 1 average (274 views).

Above-average Day 1 often corresponds to YouTube pushing the video through a wider initial test — though Day 1 alone isn't a reliable predictor of lifetime performance.

9,503 views in the first week — about 9.2× the video published just before it (1,029 views in its own first week).

The first week is an early marker on this channel's own scale — where a video lands over its life can still diverge.
