Bender Bending Rodriguez is the foul-mouthed robot voiced by John DiMaggio in Futurama, the animated science fiction sitcom created by Matt Groening that first aired in 1999. Short voice lines from the show have circulated for years as reaction clips because Bender's deadpan delivery works outside its original scene. Do a flip became a standalone meme response to stunts, parkour clips, and in game jumps, where his encouragement sums up the crowd's attitude. Its brevity and recognisable voice keep it in regular use in edits and soundboards.
