Amir Tataloo's “Ye Saram Be Ma Bezan” leads this collection with 18,791,484 displayed comments. BTS's “Dynamite” follows with 15,897,268, ahead of Voice's “Aloo Virus World Record” at 12,527,129.
The Amir Tataloo upload is currently unlisted and remains accessible through its original link. We include it with that label. Excluding unlisted uploads would change the leader in this collection.
Below are 30 highly commented YouTube videos, ordered by the comment totals displayed on their original watch pages. The collection includes music videos, Shorts, and other uploads. Every entry links to the individual video; this is a curated collection, not an official or exhaustive worldwide ranking.
30 Highly Commented YouTube Videos, Ranked
All 30 comment totals were read from the original YouTube watch pages on October 28, 2026. They are displayed counters, which can change or temporarily differ from the comments that load. The uploader column names the channel hosting that specific upload; JENNIE's “SOLO,” for example, is on BLACKPINK's channel.
Eight Videos Behind the Numbers
Amir Tataloo: An Unlisted Video With 18.79 Million Comments
The original “Ye Saram Be Ma Bezan” upload displayed 18,791,484 comments when checked. YouTube also showed its unlisted status beside the title.
That status matters when comparing lists. YouTube explains that anyone with an unlisted video's link can watch and share it. An unlisted upload generally does not appear in search results, although it may surface through a public playlist.
The link still opens the artist's upload, so we retain it in this collection. Readers looking specifically for publicly listed videos can distinguish it from the entries below.
BTS: “Dynamite” and the Difference Between Views and Comments
“Dynamite” has 15,897,268 displayed comments on HYBE LABELS' original music video.
Its launch also set a viewing record: YouTube reported 101.1 million views in its first 24 hours in August 2020. That first-day milestone and today's comment counter describe different parts of the video's history.
Voice: “Aloo Virus World Record” Brings a Short Into the Top Three
Voice's “Aloo Virus World Record” displayed 12,527,129 comments, placing it third in this collection. It is also available through its original YouTube Shorts link.
The title frames the upload around a record attempt. Its place in the table shows why a general list of the most commented YouTube videos should state whether it includes Shorts. A music-video-only chart would miss this upload entirely.
The word “record” in a title is the creator's framing; the count we report comes from the video's comment header.
jawed: “Me at the zoo” Has 10.64 Million Comments
“Me at the zoo” displayed 10,644,538 comments. YouTube identifies it as the first video uploaded to the platform, on April 23, 2005. The clip lasts 19 seconds.
Its age and place in YouTube's history make it a different research subject from a recent release or a short-term campaign. A sample of comments collected today would describe present activity under the video. Studying its early reception would require comments from the relevant period.
A short running time also does not, by itself, make an upload a YouTube Short. This video predates the Shorts format.
스토리: A Direct Request for Help
The 스토리 upload titled “여러분의 힘이 필요합니다...!”, roughly “We need your help,” displayed 10,005,802 comments. It is another Short near the top of this collection.
Its title gives viewers a direct request. For a creator studying participation prompts, that makes it a useful candidate to examine alongside videos whose titles simply name a song or topic.
To assess the response, read what people actually contributed. A total alone cannot distinguish answers to a request from repeated messages or unrelated discussion.
Bispo Bruno Leonardo: Two Prayer Uploads With Different Totals
The “Oração do Dia Mãos Abençoadas” video displayed 6,543,282 comments. A separate “Poderosa Oração do Salmo 91 Para Quebrar as Amarras” upload displayed 5,839,259.
Both are hosted by Bispo Bruno Leonardo, but they are distinct videos. The channel publishes other uploads with similar prayer titles, making the individual URL essential when checking a statistic.
A recurring series needs this level of identification: save the individual video ID with its count, even when several uploads share a title.
Nick DiGiovanni: A Donation Campaign With 6.38 Million Comments
Nick DiGiovanni's “1 View = 1 Meal Donated (ft. MrBeast)” displayed 6,379,331 comments. The original title presents the upload as a donation campaign with MrBeast.
It gives researchers a campaign example to compare with music releases and record-themed Shorts. When reviewing a campaign like this, start with the actual participation instructions and the period you want to study. Then examine whether the available comments contain questions about the campaign, reactions to the video, or other recurring messages.
Elen BS: Check the Current Uploader Alongside the Video
The “will you do this for me?😭✨” upload displayed 4,148,984 comments. Its current uploader name is Elen BS.
An August 2024 list from Exonia identifies this video under “Elen.” Matching the original video ID lets readers recognize the same upload despite the different channel label.
For a maintained ranking, keep both identifiers: the original video URL and the uploader name displayed when you checked it. The URL is also more useful to readers than a link to the creator's channel homepage.
What High Comment Counts Can Tell You
These totals help identify videos worth investigating. They do not describe the conversation on their own. The same account can leave several comments, and a large total can include very different kinds of messages.
A useful research question is specific: What do viewers keep asking? Which instruction causes confusion? Are people discussing the video, responding to a campaign, or posting about something else?
For a music release, you might study reactions during its launch period. For a record attempt, you might examine recurring text and repeat participation. For a recurring prayer series, you might compare the questions or messages under several clearly identified uploads. Each is a proposed analysis; the ranking above is based on displayed counts, not a study of the full comment text.
For an example of how to investigate participation after building a ranking, see the exported-sample study in our most commented Instagram posts collection.
What Creators and Brands Can Learn
Use the examples to shape a question you can test on your own channel:
- Ask for a relevant response. Invite viewers to answer a question, choose between options, or explain a difficulty connected to the video. A higher count is more useful when the comments help you understand the audience.
- Choose the period before collecting. A launch-week review needs a different dataset from a review of current activity under an older upload. Check comment dates before describing a sample as campaign feedback.
- Measure participation at the right level. If your dataset supports it, report both comments and distinct commenting accounts. Retain repeated contributions when studying repeat participation; apply published entry rules when reviewing a giveaway.
- Check recurring messages in context. Open the source comment or thread before treating a repeated phrase as praise, a complaint, or a product request. Short replies can depend on the parent comment for their meaning.
Avoid encouraging repeated comments simply to inflate a total. YouTube says repeated posting can be detected as spam. A useful question gives viewers something to say without asking them to flood the comment section.
How to Analyze a YouTube Video With CommentGrid
Start with a supported public video and a question you want the comments to answer. The CommentGrid YouTube Comment Exporter provides an entry point for collecting available comments into a file.
- Save the individual video link and context. On desktop, copy the address or use Share → Copy. In the YouTube mobile app, use Share → Copy link. Record the displayed count, the check date, and any campaign instructions alongside the URL.
- Export available comments. Paste the supported URL into CommentGrid and review the returned data. Keep the original download. CSV works with Excel or Google Sheets; JSON is useful for a structured workflow. Check current availability before planning a collection from an unlisted upload or a Short.
- Check what the file covers. Confirm the source video, returned row count, comment dates, and whether reply texts are included. A reply-count field does not by itself mean every reply was collected. Likes attached to a comment describe that comment's likes.
- Review themes and decide what to do next. Use CommentGrid's AI Comment Analysis to explore themes, questions, and sentiment, then check the source comments. A useful outcome might be an answer to a repeated question or a clearer explanation in your next video.
Our YouTube comment export tutorial covers the download and spreadsheet steps. The YouTube comment search guide explains how to find keywords and authors in exported data.
Treat the returned file as its own dataset. A sample of available comments can support observations about that sample; its row count should not be presented as the full total shown under a video with millions of comments.
Research Method
We checked 36 candidate videos and selected the 30 with the largest displayed comment totals in that verified set. Candidates came from existing video and Shorts charts, historical record references, and targeted searches for the original uploads.
For each candidate, we opened the original YouTube watch page, matched the visible title and uploader, loaded the comment section, and recorded the number shown in its comment header. All checks took place on October 28, 2026. Counts in the table preserve the integers displayed during those checks; they were not reconstructed from rounded third-party figures.
The collection includes music videos, other uploads, Shorts, and one clearly labeled unlisted video accessible by link. It does not cover private or inaccessible videos, community posts, or likes received by individual comments. It is a curated collection rather than a complete survey of YouTube.
YouTube notes that watch-page comment counters can temporarily differ from the comments that load or from Analytics. It also explains that totals can fall after comments are removed for spam or other policy reasons. Our figures are observations of displayed counters, not an independent count of every comment. They may differ when you reopen a video.
The discussion of individual videos uses their visible titles, uploader information, and linked background sources. Suggestions for comment analysis are research steps readers can apply to an export; they are separate from the count verification used for this ranking.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is the Most Commented Video on YouTube?
Amir Tataloo's “Ye Saram Be Ma Bezan” leads this verified collection with 18,791,484 displayed comments, checked on October 28, 2026. The video is unlisted but accessible by its original link. This collection does not establish an official worldwide record.
Is BTS's “Dynamite” the Most Commented YouTube Video?
“Dynamite” displayed 15,897,268 comments, placing it second in this collection. The unlisted Amir Tataloo upload displayed a higher total. Whether a list includes unlisted videos can affect which video it names first.
What Is the Most Commented YouTube Short?
Among the Shorts verified for this collection, Voice's “Aloo Virus World Record” had the largest displayed total at 12,527,129 comments. The 스토리 upload “여러분의 힘이 필요합니다...!” displayed 10,005,802. Both were checked on October 28, 2026.
Why Do Comment Counts Differ Between Lists?
Lists may use different check dates, candidate sets, or rules about Shorts and unlisted videos. They may also copy older figures or confuse uploads with similar titles. Compare the original video ID, observation date, and counting method before treating two totals as contradictory.
Do Millions of Comments Mean Millions of Different People?
No. An account can comment more than once, and a person may use more than one account. Counting distinct commenting accounts requires comment-level data with suitable author identifiers. The displayed total alone cannot supply that measure.
Is the Most Liked YouTube Comment the Same Record?
No. The most liked YouTube comment concerns likes received by one comment. The most commented YouTube video concerns the number of comments under a video. Video likes and views are separate measures too.
Can I Export Every Comment Under These Videos?
Export coverage depends on the video's availability, accessible comments and replies, the collection method, and current limits. Check the returned dataset and completion status before describing it as complete. CommentGrid can help you work with available comments; a displayed total in the millions is not a promise that one export will return that many records.
