Kayak or boat? 'Fisherman Shocked By The Price For Kayak' runs past a million
The short on URName's real-life clips channel drew about fifty times its usual comments, and nearly all of them take the kayak's side.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 1,743,103 views a day, 34 times a normal first day on this channel (51,166).
Fisherman Shocked By The Price For Kayak
"Fisherman Shocked By The Price For Kayak" passed a million views within fifteen hours of going up on URName. A short on this channel usually finishes its whole first day somewhere around 50,000.
The clip centers on a man fishing from a kayak and a question about what his setup cost. URName is a clips channel that gathers real-life moments caught on camera, and the title does not say who filmed this one. Going by the comments, the exchange viewers care about is whether he would ever trade the kayak for a proper boat.
That question did the work. Comments came in about fifty times faster than on the channel's usual first day for a short, and most of them argue the kayak's case. The most liked one points out that a kayak can go into water where bigger boats are not allowed. Others list what a boat brings with it: permits, licenses, taxes, fuel for every trip and possibly a new truck to tow it. One viewer compares the question to asking a motorcyclist why he never bought a car. A running joke holds that the smaller the craft, the fewer friends ask to come along. Among the few voices for the other side is a former kayak angler who sold one of his and calls the boat the best decision he ever made.
The clip caps a run of fishing moments on the channel, among them a spot argument, a "Shocking Find" and a husband proud of his fishing wife, even though URName's about text promises police encounters and doorbell cameras. None of the others came close to this one.
