De Nel circulates online as a short meme clip shared and reposted across soundboards, where bass-boosted edits have become a format of their own. This version leans into that trend, taking a brief sound and exaggerating its low end until distortion becomes the joke. Bass-boosted clips are popular in short-form edits because they turn a small moment into something that feels loud, absurd and instantly noticeable, even on phone speakers. That exaggerated punch is why creators keep reaching for versions like this one when a normal clip would feel too flat.
