They are the A-list of the pre-preschool set, the babies who take the Internet by storm, racking up millions and millions of YouTube views by just doing what babies do best: being adorable.

The newest edition to that exclusive club is the "laughing baby," Mica McArthur, who dissolves into giggles when his father rips up a piece of paper. Watch:


Micah and his parents, Marcus and Amanda McArthur, went on the "Today Show" this morning. But, alas, Micah seems to have grown out of his paper-ripping phase, as the baby wasn't wasn't entertained by the action anymore.

The baby Micah story is modern not just because of the way the video went viral on YouTube. It's also a tale of today (and all its attendant economic woes) because Marcus McArthur, a stay-at-home dad finishing up his Ph.D. in American history, was tearing up a job rejection letter when he discovered how much Micah loved the sound.

Anyway, because we can't get enough of babies, Surge Desk presents five other young Internet superstars.

1. "Charlie Bit Me"
This video, in which a big brother complains about his baby sibling's bites, has racked up more than 200 million YouTube views.


2. Beyonce Baby
This New Zealand baby goes nuts to "Single Ladies."



3. Samba Baby
This Brazilian baby, Luiz Otavio, has such amazing moves that some people swore the video was fake.



4. The Original Laughing Baby
Long ago, in 2006, the Dark Ages of viral video, this baby laughed his way into our hearts.



5. The Sneezing Baby Panda
OK, so it's not a human baby. But the sneezing baby panda is extraordinarily adorable.
