In Minecraft, ender pearls are throwable items dropped by Endermen that teleport the player to the spot where the pearl lands, trading a little health for instant movement. The distinctive teleport sound became familiar through countless gameplay videos, speedruns and edited clips, where players use pearls to cross gaps, escape danger or reach high places quickly. Because the sound is instantly recognisable to Minecraft players, editors keep using it as shorthand for a sudden jump, even in videos that are not about Minecraft at all.
