Liu Kang is one of Mortal Kombat's original fighters, and this scream comes from Mortal Kombat 9, the 2011 reboot of the fighting series. In the game, characters cry out when knocked into the air or sent falling, and this particular shout was lifted by players and editors for use outside the match. It spread through gaming fail videos and short-form edits, where a recognisable fighting-game voice instantly signals a humiliating defeat. Its brevity and over-the-top panic keep it useful long after the game's release.

Liu Kang's falling scream from Mortal Kombat 9, a sharp shout as he drops from the air, used for failed jumps, dramatic falls and gaming fail moments.
This is the short, panicked scream Liu Kang lets out as he falls in Mortal Kombat 9, lasting just over two seconds. It starts high and strained, with a rising, almost cartoonish panic that makes the fall feel longer and more desperate than it really is. There is no dialogue and no music, just a single voice pushed to its limit as gravity takes over. Played over a clip, it instantly sells the moment of losing control, turning a simple drop into a comic disaster. The exaggerated delivery is what makes it memorable, funny rather than frightening, and instantly recognisable to fighting game fans.
