The sound comes from Timber, the Donald Duck cartoon released in 1941, where exaggerated cartoon effects were used to sell every slip, bounce and comic collision. The clip later circulated as part of the Hollywood Edge Funny Kick Bounces collection, which helped vintage cartoon effects reach modern editors working outside the original film. Because the springy take and wobbling bounce are so instantly recognisable as old-school slapstick, creators still reuse it to give short videos and memes a playful, retro cartoon feel without needing any dialogue.
