Three of the top six open on an image with no words

Wil Dasovich does adventure documentary, and the three best-performing Reels here all open on a picture rather than a line. An aerial reveal of a diving platform over a lagoon, 6.0 million. A tense underwater breath-hold shot, 4.2 million. Welcome to Antarctica, which is two words and is really the place doing the talking, 4.1 million.

The common property is that each opening frame contains something the viewer cannot immediately resolve. How high is that. Is that person in trouble. Where is this. The question is produced by the image, so no sentence is required to create it, and no sentence can create one as fast.

The spoken hooks in the set are both about aftermath rather than anticipation. Summer plans finally made it out of the group chat did 1.9 million. We just got the Guinness World Record in the Philippines, and it nearly destroyed me did 469,000. The second names the achievement first and the cost second, which spends the interesting half of the sentence immediately.

The lengths are remarkably consistent: four of the six run 89 or 90 seconds, which suggests a deliberate cut length rather than whatever the footage allowed. That is a useful thing to notice in an adventure account, where the temptation is to let the location decide the runtime. A fixed length forces the edit to choose what matters, and on this account the choosing is visible.

The hooks on this account

What you can copy

• Open on the frame that raises a question, not the one that looks best. Three of these six have no spoken hook and they are the top three.
• Cut to a fixed length. Four of six here run 89 or 90 seconds, which means the edit is deciding what matters rather than the footage.
• Put the cost before the achievement. Naming the record first spends the only surprising half of that sentence.
