About

"Kabooyow! Kapooyow!" is an onomatopoeic expression uttered by Texas resident Michelle Clark to describe the noise of hail hitting her house during an interview with a local television news station in March 2013.

Origin

On March 21st, 2013, YouTuber TrippingOverFunny uploaded a video titled “Kabooyow! Kapooyow!”, which featured a clip from an NBC 2 Houston local news report about a hail storm that had struck some parts of Texas and Colorado on the day before. In the clip, Clark was quoted as saying “it was like ’kapooyow! kapooyow!” in describing the sound of her house getting battered by the hail (shown below).

Clark: "It said 'kahpooyah! kahpooyah!' and then boy that hail just came in. I looked out my… opened my door and looked out my door it started hitting me in my head i took out running and ran to my restroom and then I called my momma to see if she alright."

Spread

On March 21st, 2013, the Internet news blog Hyper Vocal[1] published an article about the clip, comparing it to other local news viral videos starring Antoine Dodson and Sweet Brown. Hours later, YouTuber Locke Vincent uploaded the first music remix video using the footage (shown below).
