The Most Dangerous Computer Viruses Explained in 13 Minutes! (Part 1)

Eight computer viruses that changed cybersecurity forever — a love letter that infected 45 million machines in ten days, a worm that made up 25% of all emails on earth, and a piece of code that crossed into the physical world and tore apart nuclear centrifuges while telling operators everything was fine. Each one exploited something different: software flaws, hardware vulnerabilities, or just plain human curiosity. Not all of them were built to steal or destroy. One was a joke by a YouTuber that replaces your boot screen with Nyan Cat. Another was a cartoon purple gorilla that sang songs while quietly harvesting your personal data. And one simply called you an idiot on loop until your computer gave up. But every single one left a mark — billions in damage, governments shutting down email systems, hospitals turning away patients, and lessons the internet is still learning from.
