Why do most YouTubers lose viewers without even knowing why?


They think it’s about cool edits, fancy shots, or perfect production. But guess what? None of that matters—without curiosity. The secret? A curiosity loop.


I made these changes… and got 100,000 views in 24 hours!

In this video, Will Roberts, The Outlaw Filmmaker, reveals 5 genius tricks to hook viewers and keep them watching till the very end. Learn how to:


✅ Start with a mystery – Give viewers a question they must get answered.

✅ Make them wonder – Don’t just give answers; build anticipation.

✅ Shock them – Say something unexpected to trigger curiosity.

✅ Give just enough—but not everything – Keep them leaning in and wanting more.

✅ Create emotional stakes – If viewers care about the outcome, they won’t click away.


But beware of three deadly mistakes:


❌ Closing curiosity loops too soon – Give away the answer too fast, and viewers leave.

❌ Making the mystery too vague – If it’s unclear, viewers won’t care.

❌ Not stacking curiosity loops – Every answer should lead to a new question.


Master curiosity loops, pacing, and suspense, and your videos will keep people watching.
