[Pretend to be an outdoor-survival clip] + [place danger right under the character] + [let the monster burst out] + [escalate into multiple creatures] = a title-mismatch jump-scare Shorts formula
The title promises survival skills, but the actual product is a fake-out monster scare. The opening deliberately frames a backside hovering close to a dirt hole, creating the uncomfortable feeling that something is about to go wrong. Then a spiky three-headed creature bursts upward and the clip instantly switches from fake survival demo into cheap monster-shock content. In the middle, the man clutches himself and turns toward the camera with exaggerated pain and panic, as if reporting that he has just been attacked. The back half escalates again by showing multiple monsters lined up on the slope, which turns a single scare into a broader threat before the human simply runs out of frame. The format works because the title promises useful knowledge while the video delivers a surprise creature attack instead.

The body-near-hole framing is uncomfortable enough that viewers naturally wait to see what is inside.
Because the title promises survival skills, the monster burst feels even more jarring.
