Parallel Studio, a motion design studio based in Paris, recently posted a video on its Vimeo account entitled Unsatisfying.
The short video features a range of everyday situations that are painfully unsatisfying, such a a drink getting caught in a vending machine, or a piece of toast falling the wrong way down.
Speaking to BuzzFeed, a representative for the company said they did not expect the kind of reaction the video has received.
"The number of views is impressive," they said. The idea for the video began with thinking about someone missing a hole on a golf course, they said, then they experimented from there.
Because of the video's success, the agency has decided to start a challenge and invite people to create their own version of the video.
