Big Smoke, voiced by Clifton Powell, is one of the central characters in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, released by Rockstar Games in 2004. Clips of his dramatic lines and death scenes were ripped from gameplay and shared on YouTube and soundboards in the 2010s, where they became shorthand for over the top betrayals and fails. The brains blown moment stays popular alongside Aw Shit! Here go again because both capture the game's exaggerated voice acting, making them easy to reuse in remixes, streams and meme edits today.

Big Smoke brains blown sound effect from GTA San Andreas, featuring the character's shocked death reaction used in memes, edits and gaming videos.
This six second clip captures Big Smoke in a moment of graphic shock, built around a loud impact and his stunned vocal reaction. The delivery is heavy and exaggerated, with the sudden blast cutting through the dialogue and leaving a brief, stunned pause afterward. Because Big Smoke is such an oversized, familiar voice from San Andreas, the contrast between his usual confidence and this abrupt end makes the sound instantly funny out of context. Viewers recognise it immediately as a fake death or fail moment, which is why it lands so well as a punchline.
