Kai Silva is an operator in Delta Force, and this clip isolates his hurt and knock reaction from gameplay. Short damage sounds like this travel fast in gaming edits because they are instantly understood, even outside a match. Players cut them into montages, streams, and meme videos alongside other familiar pain reactions like the oof minecraft sound, using the grunt as shorthand for getting hit. Its popularity comes from that simplicity, a single reaction that works for real gameplay and for jokes about failing at anything.
