Shared online as a Jurassic Park reaction clip, this short sound has travelled through meme edits, reaction videos and short-form posts, where its blunt question does most of the comedy work on its own. Searchers usually arrive looking for the exact Jurassic Park wording rather than a longer scene, which keeps it useful as a standalone reaction that needs little context. Its staying power comes from flexibility: the same question fits shoes, outfits, animals, gadgets and anything else that looks unexpectedly strange, so creators keep returning to it whenever a reveal needs an instant, recognisable response.
About this sound
The Jurassic Park 'what are those' moment, a surprised reaction clip used in memes and edits when someone spots something unexpected or out of place.
This short clip captures a moment of startled disbelief from Jurassic Park, as a character notices something strange and reacts with the now-famous question, what are those. The delivery is quick, incredulous and slightly panicked, with the emphasis landing hard on the final word, which makes it instantly quotable and easy to drop into a reaction. Hearing it immediately signals confusion, surprise and a little mock horror, turning an ordinary reveal into a punchline. Because the line is so short and clear, it works as a sharp interruption, a caption for an unexpected object, or a playful way to call out something that looks completely out of place.
