I have studied over 50,000 viral hooks over the past year and here’s the breakdown ? #shorts

Creating viral content is more art than science, but certain elements stand out more than others. After studying over 50,000 viral hooks across hundreds of different niches this past year, I’ve discovered that most viral videos use one of six types of hooks. Here’s a breakdown of each type:

1. The Negative Hook
   This hook captures attention by presenting an unexpected downside to a generally accepted positive action. Example: "This is why eating healthy makes you fat."

2. The Dream Result Hook
   People are always chasing their dreams, and this type of hook taps into that desire. Example: "Do you want to be the first millionaire in your family?"

3. The Shocking Hook
   Shock and surprise can make any content memorable. Example: "For this croissant, you can have all these raspberries with this much Whi."

4. The Stating Really High Number Hook
   Big numbers can be attention-grabbing and make people curious. Example: "This is 7,700 calories worth of M taser."

5. The Controversial Hook
   Controversy can spark debate and engagement. Example: "I got engaged when I was 16 years old."

6. The Bold Hook
   Bold claims or promises can entice people to watch more. Example: "I'm going to tell you how you can get drunk in under 600 calories this summer."
