   It's actually up to 6.5 million live viewers now, with an additional 19   
   million on-demand views on YouTube and an additional 6 million on Rumble, so   
   you're low-balling it by a helluva lot. How surprising.   
      
   The TPUSA event was also the second-most streamed event in YouTube history.   
      
   No one expected it to outperform the Super Bowl itself which has a worldwide   
   infrastructure and marketing juggernaut behind it that no alternative   
   broadcast could hope to beat no matter the content of the show itself, but   
   TPUSA's numbers were large enough that they most definitely got the NFL's   
   attention.
