The fact that Sam's statues are ever-so-slightly jiggly and yet they still break as though they're solid is some next level unsatisfying.

[loopiloop]

In the pop toy thing, the fact that the first two attempts failed actually makes the final one extremely satisfying because the first two lower your expectations and when you think things won't improve, it suddenly works perfectly

[midgetsow]

The one with the vending machine, as he started to walk away it should have started to malfunction and drop a bag of chips. He turns around and gasps with delight as the chip bag falls 90% of the way and gets stuck, crushing his dreams.

"I had to animate this thing with my mouse, and it was really really hard." I love Sam, LOL

I now understand why they *ACTUALLY* buried the 3D photoscans of themselves:

It wasn't a time capsule, it was an excuse to need more photoscanning in the future.

The problem with Peter's is that his whole video is immensely satisfying as a comedic routine. There was never any expectation that it would work.

[micaiahclark]

Ok, but Wren’s would’ve definitely been the most unsatisfying by a long shot if he had just kept the popper from actually popping 😂

[wisdomprepper]

I'm sure someone already said it, but can we just appreciate the extremely anticlimactic and meh hand gathering before they set off on their task? lol

[TheKarishi]

If the popper hadn't gone off the third time that would have gotten it. The concept was so unsatisfying that the creator himself wasn't willing to see it through, and thus he failed to truly fail.

[JunkyardDigs]

The most unsatisfying clip of all was the last 3 seconds, you got me😂

[Philou-X]

The winner is without a doubt the editor of this video who cut the end short

[factsmachine]

I half expected the dollar to come out as an origami before it shredded, but that pain was just so relatable. That was my winner.

[RiotSmurf]

Idea for the vending machine: The final one accepts the bill, but when they pick the item it leans up against the glass and doesn't fall down.

[atch]

The fact that the popper doesn’t shoot up all the time makes it somehow even more satisfying when it eventually does. It’s like watching the DVD logo finally hit the corner.

[georgegividen]

I would have done the DVD bouncing logo, where it almost hits the corner everytime, but never actually does.

[weasel]

I feel like what makes unsatisfying renders so unsatisfying is the build up where it looks like you’re going to have a satisfying ending but at the last minute you don’t get it. So the vending machine and statue ones were unsatisfying but they never really had the potential to be satisfying

[HeliosAlpha]

Jordan should've totally won. The lowest rating represents the least satisfying one, but being the "least satisfying" isn't the same as the "most unsatisfying". Edging the viewer, building satisfaction until the very end, then not letting it finish is clearly the most unsatisfying feeling

[mr_glasses]

What someone should have done is create this ridiculously intricate obstacle course, pan over the entire thing showing how cool this is going to be, really build up that desire to see all this cool stuff happen and then have the ball launch from its starting point and fail at the first obstacle.

[nedquigglio]

“I think I’ve discovered that backdoor to your pleasure receptors...”

You truly know how to satisfy Sam

[SoggyMicrowaveNugget]

Wren going through that volume mesher just to essentially do a simple boolean was... certainly something. I feel like that was an attempt at making the behind the scenes unsatisfying, if so hats off for the inside joke.
