There’s a couple of ASMR triggers that seem to pop up in every video on every channel out there (including mine, of course ;))…and then there’s triggers that are quite rare and underrated. So, here’s a little battle of overrated and underrated ASMR triggers. Enjoy! :) What are some underrated triggers you can think of? Let me know in the comments! Like I said, it’s all in good fun, no shade on anyone using or liking the “overrated“ triggers, I love them myself. ✌ TIME STAMPS: 0:00 preview 1:25 finger flutters 3:08 scratch tapping 5:03 nail tapping (vs fingertip tapping) 7:12 rubbing triggers 10:36 pop it 12:46 handling items 15:32 red plastic cups 18:35 fast air and picture tracing 23:06 ice globe sounds 25:09 tiny mic lofi triggers
As a rare and specific trigger: It's a bit difficult to explain, but I love when people squeeze and wrinkle a piece of paper or a plastic bag (like the ones chips or cookies come in) and then try to straighten them up again, trying to make them as flat as they can. I had a classmate who always did that after having a snack and it was so tingly for me!! But I've never seen it on a video
@@yeetjones927 sorry for the confusion lol English is not my first language, so I literally googled "Lay's bag" and the first result said potato chips... So I just assumed it was correct
I think the reason this trigger is so good is because you don’t have control over when and how the headphones will touch and how they will touch so each and every tap, scrape and drop are literally unpredictable.
A combination of the rubbing and handeling triggers is what I meant when I suggested a "massaging things" video years ago! So glad that is has a more common name now and is not "the weirdest video you'll ever do" anymore :')
As far as rare and specific triggers go, I think dominos would be great! I love listening to them fall, when the clack against each other it's really nice. I also think things like tapping and scratching would go well, maybe rubbing two together even. Lots of potential I think :) Thank you for the amazingly tingly video!
when you were "pretending doing something" it was tingle heaven for me, I love this kind of triggers so much but I didn't now how to call it...thank you so much!!
I've always got tingles from people doing something concentrated, like drawing or writing while I watch them. I had forgotten and your comment reminded me of that, thank you
My favorite version of tapping is when it's mostly finger tip tapping, with spontaneous, random spurts of finger nail tapping all while moving at varying speeds around the microphone, making sure to hit the back.
by faaaar the best writing sounds! I love those deep writing sounds! most videos have much higher pitched ones, but the deep sound really is preferred, at least in my opinion 😊
One underrated trigger that jumps out in my mind is tweezer clicking. I've seen it done on your channel a couple times and it's tingle heaven. Especially when you do it, your a dang twizzer ninja!!!
I don't really like tapping triggers but the patterned ones are my favorite. The ones that the pattern doesn't break and it rhythmically builds up. Also the scratch tapping was just *chef's kiss* perfect
I feel like tapping on tin is super underrated and way more rare than it deserves to be. also the building a pizza trigger you did in some older videos needs to make a comeback!
One of my favourite underrated triggers is something you did recently in a video. I loved the sound when you were kinda squeezing the foam windscreen on your microphones. That was soooo good 😍
Frivvi did an entire video on it! ("mic squidging" as she called it, and she also used it in her most recent video) I know it's not that good to recommend another ASMRist's videos under one ASMRist's channel, and I love them both 😂 but just that, if you love this trigger, Frivvi did a full video on it
Underrated and specific trigger: I love to hear someone talking (like describing something) with a candy in their mouth (not chewing game! Candy!) While writing on a keyboard or pressing buttons on a console controller 🥰
Love this video 🥰 I think an underrated trigger (which probably was very very overrated in earlier years of asmr) is actually mic brushing! There are very few asmrtist who do this nowadays as far as I know and it's one of my favorite triggers!
It's a nice mix of sounds old and new! Personally familiarity is an important factor, unless the triggers are really great... like some of yours introduced here!!
I like lid sounds. Things like mascara is really good because you hear the texture, a little pop, and the cupping sound as you open and close the lid. So good.
The Tiny mic 🎤 attached to the pencil ✏️ is the writing ASMR that I’ve always been looking for. I would love a whole video of writing/sketching with rambling 👂❤️
Fingertip and nail tapping are just two side of same dice, to me. It really depends on what's being tapped. Your toothpaste tube tapping sounds great in both!'n
A rare and specific trigger I LOVE and hardly ever see is “Face Adjustments.” You act as if we have buttons, switches, screws, etc on our face and adjust them. It makes really good sounds and it’s a really nice visual trigger as well.
my favorite underrated trigger: “accidental” triggers, as in something that produces sound that the asmrtist doesn’t call attention to or mention. i typically assume these are intentional, but i suppose they could legitimately be accidental. i mean things like clothing that makes subtle noises, a couple unassuming rings that clank together, an object that produces white/continuous noise, naturally occurring gripping/rubbing sounds, etc. yk what i mean? i think it’s so relaxing and tingly when noises occur “accidentally” or “naturally” in asmr videos, even if it’s just an illusion.
Some underrated sounds are beads and jewelry sounds, in all contexts. Like, just wearing big rings that click on things. Bracelets (besides metal bangles) that click on things. Sorting beads. Beaded bracelets sliding across a table surface. A pendant sliding up and down a chain like some people do when theyre bored. Being close enough to someone to hear their jewelry clink around in intimate and comforting.
one thats very specific and i love it but i only know like one video that has it is like. circling a wooden candle lid with short nails and changing the speed of it from time to time! its so tingly
I thought I’d hate the mic on the pencil because all scratching noises make my teeth hurt like that nails on a chalk board effect but that one was the only trigger to give me tingles omg loved that!
omg the peppa pig book tracing is back! I still occasionally go back to the underrated asmr video it's featured in. I think it's my favourite specific trigger you've done
My personal favourite tingly trigger that I think is fairly underrated specifically is the crinkly paper cloud, any crinkling sounds are heaven to my ears 😌
Forgot to comment on this video when I first watched it…and because it made me fall asleep 😴 BUT this video was so tingly. I also love the switching between overrated to underrated. That alone was a tingly trigger
Underrated trigger: stipple, especially the way ASMRequest did it where she actually touched the camera. Maybe with the glas you used for the whiteboard video?
The tapping triggers were so interesting to me and really made me think--I'm normally not a lover of bass sounds in audio and simply can't stand it in heavy doses, but I definitely prefer the deeper sounds from the finger pad taps instead of the finger nail taps. The latter sometimes just echo too much and sound like fireworks to me, lol.
Hey so you prob won’t see this but I’m the first one to make this idea in jojo’s asmr comment section commenting “day _ of asking jojo for overrated vs underrated triggers “ and one of my comments went viral and winkey made the video on it! :D

what chips come in a plastic bag? You normally get them on a plate
@@yeetjones927 He meant crisps I guess
@@heidyli7839 ahh ok i understand i was confused for a sec lmao, i thought it was weird lol
@@yeetjones927 sorry for the confusion lol English is not my first language, so I literally googled "Lay's bag" and the first result said potato chips... So I just assumed it was correct
It's shame some one plays within a grace of God, he can eat them why this a bad thing .!!.
My fav underrated trigger is earbuds on a phone screen! Pleaseeeee bring this back
I think the reason this trigger is so good is because you don’t have control over when and how the headphones will touch and how they will touch so each and every tap, scrape and drop are literally unpredictable.
what video?
A combination of the rubbing and handeling triggers is what I meant when I suggested a "massaging things" video years ago! So glad that is has a more common name now and is not "the weirdest video you'll ever do" anymore :')
I remember that « massaging the crap out of a blanket » video, that trigger was an uncommon one for sure back then x)
Ephemeral rift
the scratch tapping on the mini book is sooo relaxing
Scratching crinkles is an underrated trigger that i dont see a lot of asmrtists do!
As far as rare and specific triggers go, I think dominos would be great! I love listening to them fall, when the clack against each other it's really nice. I also think things like tapping and scratching would go well, maybe rubbing two together even. Lots of potential I think :)
Thank you for the amazingly tingly video!
Intense layered triggers are definitely a favorite for me.
when you were "pretending doing something" it was tingle heaven for me, I love this kind of triggers so much but I didn't now how to call it...thank you so much!!
I agree!! Such a good trigger
Need more of this!
I've always got tingles from people doing something concentrated, like drawing or writing while I watch them. I had forgotten and your comment reminded me of that, thank you
I agree improvisation itself can sometime offer an insane amout of tingles. As if the person was doing it on an amateur level.
A trigger i like that I don't see much is stippling the mic with a brush, both with and without a foam mic cover
My favorite version of tapping is when it's mostly finger tip tapping, with spontaneous, random spurts of finger nail tapping all while moving at varying speeds around the microphone, making sure to hit the back.
by faaaar the best writing sounds! I love those deep writing sounds! most videos have much higher pitched ones, but the deep sound really is preferred, at least in my opinion 😊

Scratch tapping i FREAKING love it. When i watch tapping videos i always find myself looking for more because not everyone does it. Thank you omg

@@yuhanguo6789 that sounds awesome, have to check that out! Thx :)
Underrated and specific trigger: I love to hear someone talking (like describing something) with a candy in their mouth (not chewing game! Candy!) While writing on a keyboard or pressing buttons on a console controller 🥰
I really like this type of content. Where people show special triggers or rate them. :) i peronally think that pine cones are really underrated.
my favorite rare/specific trigger EVER is any noises from pool toys or inflatables. Blowing them up, tapping on them, squishing, its so versatile!
Love this video 🥰
I think an underrated trigger (which probably was very very overrated in earlier years of asmr) is actually mic brushing! There are very few asmrtist who do this nowadays as far as I know and it's one of my favorite triggers!

Its been over a year and I still occasionally come back to this video for the stupid handling of the fish haha Idk why this catches me so much
an underrated trigger i looove is camera sounds like touching/adjusting the camera, zooming sounds, focusing sounds etc
Rubbing triggers are definitely my favourite, instant tingles 😁
Btw i still occasionally check if you're back to cameo but ...sadly not haha 😁
Fingertip and nail tapping are just two side of same dice, to me. It really depends on what's being tapped. Your toothpaste tube tapping sounds great in both!'n
Your voice has to be the most beautiful thing in this world. Very pleasant and soothing.
Your ASMR is so relaxing🌸💖
A rare and specific trigger I LOVE and hardly ever see is “Face Adjustments.” You act as if we have buttons, switches, screws, etc on our face and adjust them. It makes really good sounds and it’s a really nice visual trigger as well.
I love both underrated and overrated, but I get more tingles with underrated trigger😁
Same😌
Handling the fish was actually crazzzyyyyy good XD I had no idea it was such a great trigger until I saw this video!!
my favorite underrated trigger: “accidental” triggers, as in something that produces sound that the asmrtist doesn’t call attention to or mention. i typically assume these are intentional, but i suppose they could legitimately be accidental. i mean things like clothing that makes subtle noises, a couple unassuming rings that clank together, an object that produces white/continuous noise, naturally occurring gripping/rubbing sounds, etc. yk what i mean? i think it’s so relaxing and tingly when noises occur “accidentally” or “naturally” in asmr videos, even if it’s just an illusion.
Card shuffling and brushing the mic with a tooth brush are underrated but sound so good!
Eardrumm stabbing and theeth tapping are very underrated in my opinion 🙌🏼
Some underrated sounds are beads and jewelry sounds, in all contexts. Like, just wearing big rings that click on things. Bracelets (besides metal bangles) that click on things. Sorting beads. Beaded bracelets sliding across a table surface. A pendant sliding up and down a chain like some people do when theyre bored. Being close enough to someone to hear their jewelry clink around in intimate and comforting.
Underrated triggers: shuffling cards, rolling dice, the sound of leather, tapping body parts to make different sounds e.g. cheeks, teeth, collarbone.
Love the sound of paper fans/decorations being opened and closed - or cardboard scraping! ❤️
3Dio ear scratching is so underrated, but I love the silicone scratching sound!
Scratch tapping , rubbing triggers, handling items, picture tracing are soooo nice!!!
plucking the petals off of a flower. i saw it once and now i can't find. something about the sound just gave me tingles to another level.
I agree the trigger at 7:12 is definitely underrated and is now up there with my list of favs
Tracing in general I feel is underrated but Fast tracing is incredible and I wish it was more popular!!! Thank you!!!
That silicone ear trigger (with a lofi mic, iirc) you once did was so good! Never heard it anywhere before 😍
ugh the inaudible whispers w the air tracing was SO tingly wowow
one thats very specific and i love it but i only know like one video that has it is like. circling a wooden candle lid with short nails and changing the speed of it from time to time! its so tingly
Underrated trigger!
-stirring thick liquids like honey or cream
pls make a video with all of the underrated triggers, especially with the handling and rubbing🙏🏻
My fav underrated trigger is a dropper, it is just really satisfying to hear
Holy cow. The rubbing/massaging objects was amazing!!! More of that pleaseeee!!!
Omg the rubbing and that mic writing was amazing!!!!
I thought I’d hate the mic on the pencil because all scratching noises make my teeth hurt like that nails on a chalk board effect but that one was the only trigger to give me tingles omg loved that!
The fish with untintelligible whispers ✨brain melt✨
omg the peppa pig book tracing is back! I still occasionally go back to the underrated asmr video it's featured in. I think it's my favourite specific trigger you've done
The rubbing trigger was so tingly! My personal favorite
My personal favourite tingly trigger that I think is fairly underrated specifically is the crinkly paper cloud, any crinkling sounds are heaven to my ears 😌
those red little cups make the best sound EVER.
Forgot to comment on this video when I first watched it…and because it made me fall asleep 😴 BUT this video was so tingly. I also love the switching between overrated to underrated. That alone was a tingly trigger
two specific and underrated triggers are scratching in a circular motion and grabbing for me
The handling item its soooooooooo relaxing, make more please
Jesus, my mind almost exploded while you wrote down the list with the tiny mike attached, soooooo good 😊❤️❤️
I still love the overrated triggers! They are fan favorites for a reason :)!
Loved the video💛 and please do a whole longgg video of just picture tracing🙌🏻
Underrated trigger: stipple, especially the way ASMRequest did it where she actually touched the camera.
Maybe with the glas you used for the whiteboard video?
The tapping triggers were so interesting to me and really made me think--I'm normally not a lover of bass sounds in audio and simply can't stand it in heavy doses, but I definitely prefer the deeper sounds from the finger pad taps instead of the finger nail taps.

I really enjoy the sound of opening and closing a book slowly!
Thank you for your videos from Ukraine, Fast❤️🇺🇦
They help me sleep even during darkest and toughest nights!
Please pray that this will end soon 🕊
When you realise your very lucky that you dont live in ukraine
I’ve never heard of scratch tapping before and I think it’s my new fav already 😅
AHHH THE PEPPA PIG BOOK THANK YOU!!
I really love finger tapping and get so annoyed with nail tapping, that was a great video !!Thanks
That "handling" trigger made me sooo sleepy
I think ear cupping is so underrated and also earphones on phone screen (you’re the only asmrtist I’ve seen doing it)
the tracing on the book!!!!! exactly
I COMPLETELY agree with the "ice globes"
I really needed this
Can you make an another series on lofi asmr with underrated triggers and camera tapping 🥺❤️
What about the plus and minus button on wired Apple earbuds… it makes such a specific clicking noise that I’ve never seen anyone else do
I would love to see a video that dedicated only to scratchy tapping 😍
I love the S sounds in your voice when you make them. its a very ear piercing sound but I like those more
I reckon the underrated triggers are the best
In the end I even tingled in my forehead 😄 and that was new.... loveeee it!
I love tweezers, pinching plastic or rubber (like on those dummy heads/ears)
What about coconut shell scratching? or coconut calving? I like when people shave off pieces of coconut, it sounds really nice >.
collar bone tapping is soo underrated 😩
Necesito un video en español! Maybe one speaking different languages, but your voice in Spanish is sooo good! I love it
Hey so you prob won’t see this but I’m the first one to make this idea in jojo’s asmr comment section commenting “day _ of asking jojo for overrated vs underrated triggers “ and one of my comments went viral and winkey made the video on it! :D
Match box vs toothpick... scratched on the brown part, trust me! 💥
underrated… still definitely you!
True
Cue The Dude from The Big Lebowski:
Well, I mean, that’s just your opinion, man. *water gurgles*
I personally love all the plastic triggers.... ❤️ 15:58 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍
Eyelash curler sounds are such an uderrated trigger imo :')
The fish was my favorite!! Thank you
One of the Queens of ASMR 💖💖
Bring back textured perfume bottle❤️❤️
the disclaimer made me think " do really people fee shamed if some stranger on youtube said something about what they like" !!!
I love scratch tapping!
yesss little green book is backkk
Love your videos 🥰
I love picture tracing!!
