What type of video should I upload?

Anything!  You have no idea what will take off and what won't. There are some very stupid videos (we've all seen one) that have millions and millions of views. Their owners make lots of money because they uploaded them despite their poor quality or lame content.
There are certain kinds of videos that have a tendency to go viral. Pet videos and baby videos are commonly seen to go crazy.  A slightly funny cat video might do far better than the most stunning plane crash footage.
Another type of video that can do quite well can be categorized as a "response" video.  These videos are usually creative responses to, or parodies of, a popular viral video. Some good examples can be seen in the wake of "Gangnam Style". Response videos have explosive potential, but usually die off after an initial burst of interest.
The best thing you can do is just upload your video and give it a chance. It just might go nuts.
