In a later video, he responded to a comment that asked, “Bro ur in ur 20s how do you still believe this,” to which he replied: “I don’t know it all. “I actually don’t believe in miracles normally, but that’s why I’m trying,” he said in his video. The impulse to believe that a sound clip can change your life comes from wanting something to believe in - an impulse maybe best described by the TikTok user posted a video of him using the sound after having a very tough year that included a breakup, burnout, and losing $20,000.
