The clip is credited to German comedian Hape Kerkeling, whose exaggerated, theatrical delivery has made his voice a favourite for German-language reaction audio. Short excerpts like this one circulate on soundboards and in chat apps, where users send them instead of typing a reply to an unbelievable claim. Because the phrase is short, instantly recognisable to German speakers and easy to place over a video or message, it has stayed in use as a quick shorthand for comic disbelief, especially when a friend shares gossip, a surprising screenshot or an excuse that sounds too wild to be true.
