The sound comes from Gex 2, the second entry in the Gex platform game series about a wisecracking gecko who travels through television and movie parodies. Its humour relied heavily on short spoken one-liners, which made individual lines easy to remember, record and share long after playing. Passed around online under the plain title cant see helmet, the clip outlived its original context because a sudden blocked view is a common joke in games, cosplay, sports helmets and everyday filming accidents.
