A very popular form of animation on YouTube is a Multi-Animator Project (or MAP), which is usually a group of animators animating their own or their favourite characters to a song, piece of dialogue, or scene.
Personally, I have participated in many MAPs on YouTube, some of my first bigger animation projects were MAPs, so I have a soft spot for them. A favourite of mine is a reanimation of a famous scene from the Simpsons; Steamed Hams. The animation was created by 13 animators who all animated 13 seconds of footage each. The video is actually titled 'Steamed Hams but There's a Different Animator Every 13 Seconds' and is hosted by YouTuber AlbinoBlackSheep.
I've included both an in-blog version and a link here:

I also very much love how some of the animators changed the origins of the original sound effects, like the burger taking a bite out of the Superintendent's head rather than the other way around and using the original sound effects to make it fit into the part.
