Social Media World Records

Yanhao Deng of Chenzhou, China, was 13 when the HP Foundation's HP LIFE program presented his certificate of completion for Inventory Management, one of its free online business courses, on November 5, 2026. His screen recording shows the course marked completed on his HP LIFE dashboard, then the certificate itself in his name with its serial number. RecordSetter opened that serial on HP LIFE's own certificate page, which shows the same name, course and date, and took his age from the date of birth he supplied. Thirteen and already managing stock.

Dennis Jarvis of Lashmeet, West Virginia, and Angie Short of Rutledge, Tennessee, traded 5,900 consecutive Facebook pokes in spring 2026. The pair kept a running count in their Messenger chat, calling out each milestone from 200 on March 21 to 5,900 on May 20. The video steps through those dated milestone messages.

Abdul Rehman of Karachi, Pakistan, opened the Profile pictures album on his own Facebook account, where Facebook's counter reads 1,855 items. His three-and-a-half-minute screen recording then scrolls through the album, a wall of selfies, portraits, flags, calligraphy and slogans, before returning to the same 1,855 count at the top. The result comes straight from Facebook's own album total. That is a lot of first impressions.

Nico Tous runs Hisy, a Spanish-language Minecraft channel, and its 52-second Short "¿Puedes Hacer Esto?", Spanish for "can you do this," went up on April 15, 2025. In a YouTube Studio screen recording made on September 27, 2026, he opens the Short's analytics and steps through the subscriber chart as it climbs past a million and levels off at 1,026,703, which is YouTube's own count of net subscribers gained from that one video. RecordSetter matched the channel and the 27.8 million views shown in Studio against the public Short. Under a minute of Minecraft, over a million new subscribers.

(RED) teamed up with Mashable to set the first-ever RecordSetter world record on Vine. On June 5th 2013, which marks the 32nd anniversary of the discovery of AIDS, people around the planet created 1,659 “(RED) themed” Vine videos to raise awareness that we can deliver an AIDS FREE GENERATION by 2015. David Guetta, Sophia Bush, and Twitter founders Biz Stone and Jack Dorsey were among those who created Vine videos and tagged them with a #REDWorldRecord hashtag. Videos from the campaign were featured on Mashable’s homepage and on the NASDAQ tower and marquee screen in Times Square. See all Vine videos created for the #REDWorldRecord here.
