About
“Put Shoe on Head” is an online prank/raid coordinated by a group of YTMND users and /b/ tards in 2006. Using Ventrilo as their ground of communication, participants targeted individual chatrooms on LiveJasmin.com, a webcam/porn site featuring live chat with girls, many of whom apparently do not speak fluent English. The raids consisted of flooding the chatrooms and making strange requests like “do a barrel roll” and “show me your keyboard.”
Soon enough, a YTMND user known asFlyingLaserJesus told one of the performers to place her shoe on her head, using the fractured English command of ‘Put Shoe On Head’, and soon enough, the phrase became the one line glory of the Live Jasmin Raids.
Reactions
The first performer to put her shoe on her head was a girl who went by the username Sharissa. The event was screencapped and quickly made into a YTMND. Since then, many other copycat sites have been made.
Other notable performers who participated in the meme were SexyLexyforU, who put not only a shoe on her head, but a table, a book, and numerous bottles on her head, among other things (YTMND here), and 1Lilith, who chatted with raiders and even sung for viewers on multiple occasions.
Impact
- Since the initial put shoe on head raids, numerous people have been conducting copycat raids or putting their own shoes on their heads. There’s a single topic gallery called ShoesonHeads solely dedicated to photos of people with shoes on their heads
