Long boom effects became a staple of short form editing because a single bass hit can signal a punchline without any dialogue. This extended version is shared on soundboards as a standalone clip for quick previews and downloads, and it is often compared to the shorter vine boom sound used in reaction memes. Creators keep reusing it for reveals, fails and fake explosions, where the extended rumble gives the edit more weight than a quick impact and leaves space for captions or a pause before the next cut.
