so in my last video I made a realistic gaming device

The video likely performed well due to its novelty and the unexpected, humorous application of technology to create a real-life "flashbang" effect tied to a gaming experience. The DIY aspect and the relatable context of gaming setups also contribute to its appeal.

The creator built a device that flashbangs them in real life when the screen goes white during a game. They connected a borrowed light to a relay and an Arduino, programmed it to activate with a white screen, and then tested it.
