Learn What the “Wilhelm Scream” Is, Noob

With apologies to you seasoned film enthusiasts, I’d like to introduce the Wilhelm Scream to those still left oblivious to it. You see, I used the sound effect in a recent YouTube video and was again reminded that it’s not as widely appreciated as I should think. Klaxoncow said it best: The scream, which originated…

You are SO funny, Kevin! I don’t want my 2 minutes back. Look out zefrank, a new genre has emerged: Commute Video. I predict it will replace Commentary Video. It’s got wheels.

Dude, you need some audio books to listen to. Even after a 45 minute commute to work (each way, each day), I STILL don’t get that loopy. Maybe your exhaust is leaking into the cabin?
