Most weak hooks fail because they are too obvious, too slow, or too generic. They explain the topic, but they do not give the viewer a reason to keep watching.
Weak: “Today I’m going to show you how to walk your dog.”
Stronger: “You’re probably walking your dog the wrong way.”
Same topic. Different hook. Different level of curiosity.
