Does anyone else find these videos really relaxing?
58 replies, posted
I really enjoy watching these sorts of videos in my spare time (I have a collection of these videos, most of which l came across accidentally, but can now come across some on purpose), and just find them really soothing and relaxing. What the main factors of these videos are to have a relaxing voice, rustling paper (I have been told this may be a trigger from the brain relating to getting presents, releasing hormones) in a certain way, or light static noise.
Examples:

Above one is for the rustling noises, not the voice.
So I was wondering if anyone else finds these videos relaxing or if it is just me. Feel free to post some of your own finds if you do.
I don't think any involving needles falls into the realm of what I'd consider "relaxing."

Fixed.
Nah I wasn't trying to upload images?? :S
No I don't find them relaxing. Quite the opposit actually.
I see what you mean OP, i did feel it.
There was this guy on YouTube with a thick southern accent making various tutorials on cooking and gardening related stuff. His voice was ridiculously calming, he even made an account on FP in response to his video being posted here. Somebody still got that?

That paper gun suprised me.
I feel like this is a parody thread about the user who found people opening packages to be relaxing and feel good.
For some reason, listening to this song relaxes the hell out of me:

this guys videos are all in this style, no fancy intros or anything remotely exciting, although he has made some funny ones :)
thinking about it, its just some old guy sitting in a chair talking about how he relaxes with cigars and coffee... Its pure genius
If i want to relax myself:

The thread isnt about relaxing to music
Weirdly, this does make me get sleepy and some weird feeling in my head.
More informative than relaxing but they each have very different tones which i like
Those were relaxing
I don't have anything really specific that relaxes me. Not that I know of, at least. Generally, when I'm raging and want to calm down, I listen to music like this.

[sp]I love that game[/sp]
Edit: it's not really calming, but does give kind of a "discharge" for me. Which results in the same thing, basically.

There is something very calming with this song, and he's a genius.
Video wise? I just watch Shaytards latest vlog I guess.
This is not about music, it is about paper and plastic and poor video cameras.

right on motherfucker, now lets chill!!!
I have the same thing. I can just chill out and get a weird but nice feeling in my stomach when watching these. There was a thread on this before that also had the paper gun video's in it if I remember correctly.
I know what you mean man, the amateur videos with lots of non needed voices and calm speak are relaxing.
The sound of paper rustling and packages opening is extremely soothing to me and I have no idea why.
I am the complete opposite, if all I hear is the rustling of the video camera getting moved and the camera man's heavy breathing it irritates me to no end.

Yes, I love the feeling of rustling stuff. Sometimes I'll watch some unboxing video because it's so relaxing.
