YouTube pays people to put advertisements on their videos. A popular video gets more hits, and earns more money. There was a recent Current Affairs (or simillar) show which showed Aussies making a solid living out of their YouTube channels by posting how-to videos on cooking, car modification and the like.
The HUVr Tech video has over a million hits and counting, not including the inevitable video exposing it as a hoax when they decide to announce it... I'm not sure what the pay rate is per view, but I think there would be a bit of cash in it for them.
