Listed under pranks on user soundboards, the meat stick clip has no confirmed original recording or creator, so its history is in how editors reuse it. The short length makes it easy to drop onto a single frame in meme edits, gaming clips and short-form videos, where it works as a quick slapstick hit without needing dialogue or music. It stays popular because the wet smack is instantly readable, even on mute-adjacent edits with captions, and it pairs well with other exaggerated impact sounds in fast joke sequences.
