The format comes from Pixar's The Incredibles and its hero Bob Parr, also known as Mr Incredible. In late 2021 edited portraits of the character getting progressively more distorted went viral on YouTube and TikTok as the Mr Incredible becoming uncanny meme, usually telling a story in stages. Each numbered phase adds a darker edit and a more uneasy tone. Phase 3 became a reusable shorthand online because it sits in the middle, recognisable as uncanny without reaching the extreme later phases that followed.

Mr Incredible Uncanny 3 is the third phase of the becoming uncanny meme, used when a story or reaction starts turning dark, creepy and unsettling.
This is the third stage of the Mr Incredible becoming uncanny meme, where Bob Parr's normal smiling face starts to look wrong and stretched. The sound underneath that image is tense and slightly distorted, marking the moment a funny story stops being funny. It is not full horror yet, it is the early warning sign, which is why viewers instantly feel uneasy. Creators hold on this phase to let the discomfort build before the next, more disturbing face appears, making the drop in mood feel gradual, deliberate and funnier because everyone knows worse is coming.
