Hook and payoff

The promise the opener makes, and how the video pays it back

Hook

A text overlay poses a common question and provides a bold, all-encompassing answer, establishing a thesis that the rest of the video must prove.

Payoff

The video ends abruptly after the final piece of evidence. The conclusion is not stated but implied, leaving the viewer to accept that the initial, broad claim has been successfully and entertainingly proven by the sheer volume and diversity of examples.
