Its not that bad. I think the reason it had this much staying power as a meme is its pretty mellow compared to most early internet shock videos. All the NSFL things i saw on the other hand, some of that shit is truly fucked.
I’ve seen all kinds of shit, most of it when I was a teen, prolly about 14-15 and I’ve forgotten most of it
But the one video title I’ll never forget was a fair bit later, when we were watching vids on /r/watchpeopledie to kill time at work: “Unnecessarily slow beheading”. The title just felt like a joke about the very gruesome beheading.

it’s just shocking enough to stay in your mind without making you numb to it
it’s not violent or gore-ish, your brain won’t block it for your own good. it’s just a niche kink
