It looks like he’s using DigitalOcean’s CDN though. This isn’t an mov file thrown on an Apache vhost. And it’s probably not gone viral.

HTTP range requests [1] are enabled out-of-the-box on both Apache and NGINX for static content. If you slap a fMP4 [2] onto a vhost it will work. No CDN needed.
Going viral is a seperate technical challenge, but probably not needed in almost every use case.
