What is the most frustratingly unsatisfying thing that you can think of? A perfect egg yolk breaking? A can getting stuck in a vending machine? A long download freezing at 99%?

Well, some sickos have made an animated video compiling all these things and more in what is probably the most unsatisfying video ever made.
A studio called Parallel is the sadistic company behind the genius clip, appropriately titled, The Most Unsatisfying Things in the World.
Despite the video’s gut-wrenching subject matter, props have to be given to the animators and their exceptional ability the recreate these everyday disappointments with tangible accuracy. They really make you feel the pain.
Speaking about the making of the video, Parallel said:
“During the summer of 2016, we created and directed a video about unsatisfying situations: the frustrating, annoying, disappointing little things of everyday life, that are so painful to live or even to watch. We quickly realized that there are a lot of other situations that would be fun to see animated, so we decided to run an animation challenge around this idea.”
Set to the dramatic lament of Samuel Barber’s Adagio for Strings, it is a torturous experience. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
