How did you know that it would be entertaining before watching the video?

What the hell is the passage of time anyway?

It's from Ahoy, that's how I knew

Now imagine someone doesn't have any idea who Ahoy is and you might understand why they wouldn't want to just watch a video with a clickbait title.

You asked why someone would want to watch it and I answered why I wanted to lol. At no point had I trouble understanding why someone wouldn't want to

Yup, I've never watched one of their videos, and if this is how they make their headlines, I probably never will.
