You also might want to make an outro where you talk about upcoming projects and tell your audience how they can support these efforts through patreon.

Another thing you could do is offer higher pledge tiers like 20, 50, and 100. You could host video chat groups while you're working on stuff and let people ask questions as they watch. For instance $20 let's them watch you work on stuff and they ask questions via text in chat and $50 let's them actually be face to face. Or something like that.

I'm late, but the "Is it safe? No. Is it effective? I'm not even sure yet, but it's very very cool" is the very definition of your chanel. It made my day.

Fantastic work. The "oh!" mistake is fun in a video. But take out the "oh!" mistake from the trailer. It's a psychological thing. It takes away your credibility. My personality type isn't one of them.. but most personality types use credibility for pretty much all their decisions. Including exploring your channel further. It's subtle yet key here. That's because the trailer is supposed to define your channel. Just having the "oh!" mistake for that short bit is a big percentage when the video is only 44 seconds long. Unconsciously, first-time viewers will mistakenly connect you making dangerous mistakes as a regular part to your videos. If dangerous mistakes are a norm, you'll turn away viewers who want to support your science and projects (they'll feel you won't be worthwhile to fund) and get viewers who want some quick excitement or a quick laugh (they won't fund you, they'll be toxic, and they'll encourage risky behavior that's not simply you making sophisticated decisions based on your background knowledge). But you already know that, as we can see in all your videos. Although you surely make mistakes all the time (it's part of experimenting), making dangerous mistakes is seen as negligence. Which in our society is not taken too lightly. But the trailer is the screener before actually watching your videos. It would be unfavorable to turn away potential customers that you want to have by making them think your irresponsible and/or only having viewers that want to see reckless behavior. Especially when you certainly *are* responsible. You want to have as good as a reputation as possible to reduce friction for potential viewers to decide to watch you regularly. If a kid learning science wants to watch you, but their parent sees your trailer and won't let them watch your channel, it would be a bummer. And if people know you're doing amazing things while still being safe, it'll be seen as cool and that opens the door to having tons of viewers, compounding via sharing. But seriously, you did good job on the trailer as a whole!
