Oh hell nah is a piece of internet slang used to express strong disbelief, and the drawn-out version became a popular reaction sound across short-form video. Creators reuse it because the phrase is instantly recognisable even to viewers who have never seen the original clip, and its exaggerated length makes it easy to time to a reveal or fail. It spread through reaction videos, gaming clips and meme edits, where it now functions as shorthand for refusing to believe what just happened. Its staying power comes from that flexibility, since almost any surprising moment can be capped with the refusal.
