ASMR videos come in all shapes and sizes.
Although the content of ASMR videos varies tremendously, what remains consistent is the physical impact they have on viewers who are susceptible to them.
Despite the work these creators put into their videos, accidental ASMR is one of the most popular sub-genres for viewers.
The dominance of this setup amongst ASMR fans may all be down to the legacy of one man who is a legend among fans of accidental ASMR, but was, for a very long time, completely unaware of ASMR’s existence.
Scroll through the comments section of most ASMR videos, and it won’t be long until you find people referencing a line spoken by Kelly.
