Most viral because

Left-aligned giant stat with a caps label, a serif sentence and a tiny source tag. Stages: “My most viral video had 4 million views because of this one trick.” You have real numbers, reviews or audience demand to cite. Fits lines like “My best post got 2M views because of one first line.”.

Open my video with this hook: "Most viral because" from the 24fps video editor library.
Preset JSON: https://24fps.dev/video-editor/hooks/most-viral-because/preset.json (pass its "preset" to the engine).
Engine (MIT, no dependencies, ES module): https://24fps.dev/editor/engine.js. Download the engine next to your page (curl -O) rather than importing cross-origin, then import { mount } from "./engine.js" in a <script type="module"> served over http.
Wiring: root = a position:relative box at the video's size. media = { main }: main is a wrapper holding my video, filling the root. Then const fx = mount(root, { kind: "text", preset, media }) and call fx.render(seconds) every frame. The preset runs 4s from t = 0; offset t to place it later. It is seek-safe: drive it from the GSAP timeline in HyperFrames or call render(frame / fps) in Remotion. Before capturing frames, await (fx.ready ?? document.fonts.ready). Check it on my footage: if text is hidden behind the subject or doesn't read against my colours, nudge the layer positions or colours.
Replace the demo text with mine: set preset.layers[n].text (use \n for line breaks); if none given, write lines that fit my footage and tell me.
Hook formula: My most viral video had [X views] because of this one trick.
