YouTube Poop emerged in the mid-2000s as a form of remix video on YouTube, built from re-edited cartoons, adverts and television clips with repeated lines, pitch changes and visual jokes. Creators often added idents to brand their edits and signal the style before the main video began. This 2007 ident comes from that early period, when the community was still small and its humour was shared through video replies and forum links. It remains useful today as a nostalgic marker of that era and as a quick way to tell viewers that a messy, joke-filled edit is about to start.
About this sound
A short 2007 YouTube Poop ident jingle used to open edited remix videos, with a playful retro sting that signals chaotic meme humour is coming next.
This short ident opens like a tongue-in-cheek television bumper from the early days of online video, announcing a YouTube Poop before the edits begin. A bright, slightly off-kilter jingle plays over a punchy musical sting, giving it the feel of a parody station identification rather than a polished broadcast logo. The tone is knowing and deliberately silly, setting up viewers for fast cuts, repeated phrases, distorted voices and visual gags. Hearing it immediately creates a sense of nostalgia for mid-2000s internet humour, while also warning that the video ahead will be chaotic, self-aware and made purely to make people laugh.
