I didn't choose it (not my video).
I'd encourage you to watch it anyway, if you can get past the trauma...
"trauma" is not the point here
The point is that all YouTube videos now have these extremely annoying clickbait thumbnails and titles and that is not a good thing
I hate them too, but that style of thumbnail has been a major YT thing for like a decade. Avoid them like the plague, myself, and even mark them as "not interested", "don't recommend channel" for the more annoying ones. Probably ain't much of an impact, but at least teaching the algo what not to show me.
