The classic clickbait red arrow made me vomit a little. I'm loving the content lately, so if that's what it takes for these videos to be successful, I'm all for it.

2021-10-28 14:20:00 +0000 UTCVideo is awesome! But Derek, I gotta say... SimpliSafe is simply not safe... Perhaps you should reconsider this sponsorship... [https://youtu.be/UlNkQJzw4oA]
2021-10-27 16:56:59 +0000 UTCFor clicks, you gotta reference the exam question. People hate bad questions on tests, and love the idea of someone going to extraordinary lengths to prove themselves right and fight ‘the man’ to get their points back. It’s a justice thing and if that’s what the title is hinting at, you should go for it.
2021-10-27 16:25:17 +0000 UTCSince I am not familiar with the exam question and have no context, none of these really interest me. I think with lack of context it ends up just being vague. But maybe I am not the typical person. I don't typically care for click bait unless I have context.

2021-10-27 15:34:27 +0000 UTCI am tempted by «the physics question I needed a helicopter to solve», because it looks sort of impressive. But quickly I realise that this is not saying much about the question itself, leaving me with a feeling of being tricked into clicking just for the sensationalist title (something I would only do with a trusted youtuber). So I go for the more serious and concise «the helicopter rope riddle».
2021-10-27 13:00:54 +0000 UTCI would go with the title "I rented a Helicopter To Settle a Physics Exam Question", the thumbnail "What shape is the rope?" in Black text on the rightside. I think the black larger text is more eye catching than smaller white, there's a less contrast
