This clip comes from Angry Birds Epic, Rovio's turn-based role-playing spin on the slingshot series released in 2014. In that game the birds battle waves of green pigs, and the small minion pigs are the most common enemies, so their squeaky defeat noises are some of the most heard sounds in the whole game. Ripped and shared on soundboards, the little mourning wail caught on as a meme for mock-tragic fails, and it still pops up in game edits and funny compilations years later.
About this sound
A short mournful cry from an Angry Birds Epic minion pig, played when the little enemy is defeated. Creators use it for sad fails, game edits and loss moments.
This is the brief, pitiful wail of a minion pig from Angry Birds Epic as it admits defeat. The sound starts with a strained little squeak and slides into a drooping, sob-like whimper that feels more theatrical than tragic. It lasts about a second and a half, which is just long enough to sell the joke: a tiny villain mourning its own downfall. Dropped over a clip, it turns any small failure into a mock-tragic moment, and the exaggerated sadness of the little green pig makes even a minor slip-up feel hilariously dramatic.
