About
Non-Linear Storytelling refers to a video editing trend where the punchline of a humorous clip is foreshadowed in the form of brief glimpses as the video progresses. The video editing style, sometimes referred to as "non-linear editing," grew popular on TikTok and Instagram in September 2024, and draws inspiration from YouTube Poop edits of the 2010s.
Origin
On September 15th, 2024, Instagram[1] page @verylegendairy posted a video of a young boy trying to run through a spinning farm instrument, interspersing clips of him falling throughout the video, long before the video comes to an end and shows how he fell. The post gathered over 3.5 million likes in two weeks.
Spread

On September 28th, 2024 TikToker @taco.junk posted a video in the "non-linear storytelling" TikTok format, with an edit of a TikTok titled "Husbands Reaction To Peach Cobbler" gathering over 1 million likes and an unknown number of views.
The original video was posted to TikTok[2] by @barrettfam4 on July 5th, 2021, showing a woman throwing a large pot at her husband after he insults her peach cobbler. The video edited by @taco.junk shows the clip of the husband getting hit in brief flashes before showing the reason why he got hit. The post, which was removed by TikTok,[1] was captioned, "non linear storytelling."
A repost of the video is shown below.
