The exact origin of this high pitched wheeze is unclear, as versions of the laugh have circulated on soundboards and meme pages for years without a credited source. Wheeze laughs became a staple reaction sound online because they exaggerate the feeling of laughing too hard to breathe. Creators now drop the clip into fail compilations, gaming highlights and short comedy edits, swapping it with other viral laugh clips like the laughing dog meme whenever a normal laugh track feels too flat. Its popularity comes from how instantly recognisable the gasping rhythm is, even without any visuals attached.
À propos de ce son
A high pitched wheeze laugh that sounds like someone gasping for air between giggles. Popular reaction sound for fails, awkward moments and funny clips.
This is a long, high pitched wheeze laugh that sounds like someone laughing so hard they can barely breathe. Each burst comes out as a thin, squeaky gasp followed by shaky giggles, with sharp little inhales that almost sound like whistling. It keeps going for several seconds, rising and falling as the person tries to recover and fails. Hearing it makes almost any clip funnier because the laugh itself becomes the joke. It works best over fail compilations, awkward reactions and moments where a character completely loses their composure.
