A sky-high sign puzzles Sort Of Interesting on the footpath

Fifteen uploads bring electric fences, awkward stiles and a rural mystery that viewers answer with giraffes and low-flying sheep.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

What did you think?

Fog surrounds a red no-entry sign perched improbably high above a grassy slope. Sort Of Interesting pulls the camera back to establish the important detail: this isn't a raised road barrier, just a sign on a very tall pole beside a public footpath marker.

The narrator asks what it's for, without supplying an answer. Viewers duly offer everything from galloping giraffes to airborne sheep, while others point out that the round symbol means no entry rather than stop. A few attempt practical explanations, but the clip leaves its purpose open.

That little countryside puzzle is the most watched of the channel's fifteen uploads this week, with roughly 31,000 views. Electric fencing, a multi-stream ford and another less-than-elegant stile also made the itinerary. The channel's knack is finding something worth pausing over in the furniture of an ordinary walk.

The strongest daily momentum currently belongs to "Who would take their family in there?!! #countrylife #farming #livestock #cattle #quarry", followed by "A stile without style! #walking #footpath #countrylife #farming #humor". A new look at an old mine cart is also gathering views.

Across the channel, daily viewing is about half again its usual level, and the week brought another thousand subscribers. Weekly views were the highest among its nearby-sized outdoors peers; Ollie Craig - Primal Pursuit was close to its usual daily pace, while Modern Farm was above its own. For Sort Of Interesting, the enduring attraction remains wonderfully specific: its most-watched Short is a question about which style of stile is best.

What viewers say

It looks like a 'no entry' sign, so I'm inclined to think it's for galloping giraffes. Maybe there's a low bridge ahead.

It’s a wild stop sign, _sigalis stoppus vulgaris_ of the _Signaceae_ family. They’re quite rare as they don’t ordinarily produce viable fruit, maybe it was planted intentionally?
They grow pretty big without the regular pruning they get in the towns.

It’s for planes, obviously.
