This is a YouTube video titled "These two videos are almost IDENTICAL , but ONE got 900x more views" created in August 2024. The content explains a viral video technique called the "rare combination," which involves blending unexpected and smart elements to create memorable and shareable videos, using examples like cutting watermelon in unusual ways to increase viewer engagement.
Two videos, both almost identical, but one has 900 times more views because of a simple technique that anyone can use. The lul performer does nothing new, but the viral video immediately hits you with something unexpected, leaving you shocked for a second. It's called a rare combination. It's when you take seemingly unrelated elements and blend them to create something new and memorable. Here's how you can do it yourself. Step one Take any idea for example, Mark Rober chose to bring watermelon to a party. Step two do something unexpected, like skinning a watermelon. Step three make it smart. It shouldn't be unexpected just for the sake of it. Not only does it look cool with the rind in two large pieces, there's almost no mess to clean up. And this isn't just something that applies to watermelon content. Face Fresh took slices of apples and turned them into popsicles. Completely unexpected. And they look delicious. Now back to the viral video. I don't think anyone was considering using a cheese grater to cut a watermelon, but somehow it works perfectly. It's new and it's clever.
