25th of Blaugust - U - Unboxing Videos

You know when you've been waiting for a long time to get something and you just want to show off your latest purchase It's apparently "über cool" to film taking your purchase out of the box. These are referred as Unboxing Videos and I thought I'd have a crack at it to see what the fuss is all about.

Link to my video.

I think I managed to cover all the essentials of an Unboxing Video. Complete with the shaky camera, the obligatory, "Hey Guys," opening, the eternal struggle of only having one hand free to work wth and the heavy nasal breathing.

Seriously though. What the hell is with these things? Most of these videos are of a really bad quality. yet they seem to amass a huge number of views. If you want to show of a product, then show how it works and performs. Not the packaging it came in.
