Fun fact Daniel — I think it was in 2005 when R10 became the first person to reach 1 million views on YouTube with the Nike Tiempo commercial (the crossbar challenge). Then, in 2010, he debuted the song “Sozinho,” which still ranks among the Top 10 songs here in Brazil.

That YouTube video was so iconic. My friends and i were never sure if he was really hitting the crossbar or it was faked

YouTube themselves cite that video as one of the first viral moments that made them the platform of choice

Love this piece!! Thinking back, I think David Beckham was probably also one of the OG’s who connected fashion and football.
