: Cristiano Ronaldo Breaks World Record Right After Debuting YouTube Channel

web editor  

One of the most legendary footballers of all time, Cristiano Ronaldo, has embarked on a new journey in his career. After dominating the sport for nearly two decades, Ronaldo has made the leap into the world of content creation by launching his own YouTube channel, 'UR Cristiano'. In a matter of hours after revealing the launch of his channel, Ronaldo made history by becoming the fastest person to reach 1 million subscribers on the platform. And within just 24 hours, his subscriber count skyrocketed to an incredible 10 million, setting yet another world record. It seems Ronaldo's magic on the field has effortlessly transferred to his online presence as well.

Ronaldo is already among the most followed personalities across social media platforms. He has 112.5 million followers on the X (formerly Twitter), 170 million on Facebook and 636 million on Instagram.

"The wait is over. My @YouTube channel is finally here! SIUUUbscribe and join me on this new journey," Ronaldo posted on Wednesday on his social media accounts, announcing the start of his new journey.

Ronaldo marked the opening day of the channel with videos, including a teaser trailer, a fun quiz game with his partner Georgina Rodriguez. The channel also featured a clip of the Portuguese footballer meeting his wax figure at Madame Tussauds.

The record of hitting the 10 million mark on YouTube was earlier held by Hamster Kombat, with the channel taking 7 days to reach the milestone. Ronaldo's channel has already went past the 12 million subscribers mark and continues to grow at a never-seen-before pace.

It wouldn't be a surprise if the veteran striker, who plays for Saudi Arabia club Al-Nassr at present, goes on to break several more records on YouTube in the days to come.
