About

Batman8142 Audio Syncing is a meme video trend in which creators take TikToks of the account Batman8142, also known as Isac Leon Espinoza, and then match the monotone speech pattern and words in a duet, making it seem as if they're both talking in unison. The meme trend has evolved to where it'll show the TikToker reacting to the content, before quickly cutting to them repeating the reaction that Isac has about the content.

Origin

On November 22nd, 2021, the TikTok account justintimeforbreakfast^[1] uploaded a TikTok of him reacting to a TikTok of Batman8142 reacting to someone pouring milk in the engine of a car. Here, justintimeforbreakfast can be seen saying a phrase, before it shows Isac repeating the exact phrase as his original reaction. This TikTok went on to get over 4.7 million views in one year and showed others that copying Isac's reaction is a good way to get likes (shown below).

Spread

The following year, on January 21st, 2022, the TikToker Swauser^[2] uploaded a TikTok of him reacting to the Isac TikTok of a reaction to an entire tub of butter being spilled onto a bowl of popcorn and the kitchen counter. First it showed swauser's reaction before having the butter video cut to Isac's reaction, with Swauser being perfectly in time and monotone, earning over 307,000 likes in 10 months (shown below).

On March 1st, 2022, the TikToker nahumthelemon^[3] uploaded a TikTok of him doing the meme trend while watching Isac react to a baby mustard sketch video, earning over 250,000 likes for his efforts (shown below, left).
