Origin

On February 21, 2010, YouTube user PrawnBoy101 uploaded a video titled "The Result of Boredom". The 24-second video clip features The Heavy from Team Fortress 2 riding a Wailord through the ocean, with Avast Your Ass playing in the background. In the video's description, he dared the viewers to make a video response, and he supplied two music tracks he recommended they use (which are "Gang Plank Galleon" from Donkey Kong Country and "Sewer Surfin'" from TMNT: Turtles in Time, respectively).

Within the first 24 hours after it was uploaded, the video generated over 6,000 views. The first video response for The Result of Boredom was "the result of needing a new cheap car" by YouTube user wadloperz, which features the Heavy driving a green car on the ocean before crashing into a boat.
