The sound comes from The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, released in 2002 and directed by Peter Jackson, during Saruman's reveal of his Uruk-hai army at Isengard. Howard Shore's score uses deep drums and chanting to sell the scale of ten thousand soldiers prepared for Helm's Deep. Clips of the scene later spread on YouTube and soundboards as a shorthand for any overwhelming force arriving, and editors still reuse it for gaming montages, sports edits and dramatic reveals where numbers alone create the joke or threat.
