The brief popularity of 'Hello Kitty balloon in a tree'

I was surprised to discover the appeal of my YouTube video "Hello Kitty balloon in a tree." I still do not understand it.

It's a 12-second video that shows a Hello Kitty balloon in a tree. So far, it's been viewed 103,000 times.

But then, the phenomenon ended. I don't know why.

Maybe it was a handful of people who played it on repeat and finally got bored of it. I suppose I'll never know.

I occasionally post other surreal videos, but none have been quite so popular.
