This sound is widely used online as a general cartoon spring effect rather than being tied to one clearly credited source. Short boing-style effects like this became common in meme edits, reaction videos and mobile video apps because they instantly signal bounce, recoil or goofy motion. Its appeal comes from how fast and readable it is: in barely over a second, viewers understand the joke. That keeps it popular for fails, exaggerated movement, playful transitions and light slapstick humor across many types of short-form content.
