Trying To Fly Using Only Leaf Blowers

Content Breakdown · 5 Categories

Strong & Crude LanguageA little

A single instance of strong language appears in the transcript: 'Fuck the camera.' This is a mild profanity used in a moment of frustration, not pervasive or directed at anyone.

See evidence (1)

“Jess is like, 'Fuck the camera.'”

Materialism & Wealth FlexingA little

There is a brief moment of wealth flexing when the creator casually mentions the cost of the stunt: 'it's only like $30,000. You can do it.' This normalizes high spending in a joking manner, but it is not a central theme.

“it's only like $30,000. You can do it.”

Parasocial & Emotional ManipulationA little

There is mild parasocial language when the creator says 'Strongest family on all of YouTube. Strongest family in the world. Jake Pauler since 1996.' This frames the audience as part of an exclusive 'family' and encourages subscription, but it is not emotionally manipulative or guilt-tripping.

“Strongest family on all of YouTube. Strongest family in the world. Jake Pauler since 1996.”

Engagement Baiting & Manipulative CTAsA little

There is mild engagement baiting when the creator says 'Tweet me a picture of it and I'll follow some of you who tweet me a picture of you guys using Pho.' This incentivizes social media engagement with a reward, but it is not guilt-tripping or superstitious.

“Tweet me a picture of it and I'll follow some of you who tweet me a picture of you guys using Pho.”

Low-Quality, Extreme & Stunt ContentA lot

This video is a classic example of extreme stunt content: attempting to fly using 100 leaf blowers. The creator acknowledges the cost ($30,000) and the discomfort ('My ears hurt'), and the entire premise is a gimmick for shock value and views. This scores high because it is the core of the video.

See evidence (3)

“And yeah, dude, that was a lot more fun than I thought. Like, honestly, I thought it'd be really boring, but that was pretty cool. If you ever need something to do, just buy a 100 leaf blower, set up a contraption, and you know, it's only like $30,000.”

“Holy crap. My ears hurt.”

“That was literally the loudest thing we've ever done.”

What Parents Need to Know

This video is a high-energy stunt video from Jake Paul, where he attempts to lift a person using 100 leaf blowers. It includes a lengthy, integrated sponsored segment for the streaming service 'Pho' that may feel like an ad to children. The video contains one instance of strong language ('f**k the camera') and a brief zombie-themed skit with mild fantasy violence. On the positive side, it demonstrates a creative, hands-on experiment (though failed) that could spark curiosity about physics and air pressure. However, the loud noise and lack of safety warnings may concern parents, and the video's focus on expensive equipment ($30,000) promotes materialism. The video also includes a call to action for viewers to subscribe and tweet, which may encourage engagement without parental oversight.
