Part 4/7:
Initially, this YouTuber had a strategy focused solely on producing original content. But when they experimented with shorts—short, often viral videos—it led to unintended repercussions. One of their videos, which humorously commented on truck-related mishaps, unexpectedly went viral, racking up 25 million views. While such success is generally seen as a victory, it put this creator on YouTube's radar.

The sudden explosion in viewership possibly raised a red flag for the platform. However, the creator was not informed about which video triggered the demonetization, leaving them in the dark.
