About

Half-Life Sound Effects refer to iconic sounds and voice lines from the Half-Life video game series which have been used in numerous video remixes and parodies, often using footage from real life.

Origin

Half-Life was released on November 19th, 1998.[1] One of the earliest known videos to parody Half-Life's sound effects was posted on June 5th, 2011 by YouTuber Maverick Jey-Kidding. That day, they uploaded the video "Half-Real-Life bunnyhop discovered," which dubbed Half-Life sound effects over real-life footage and received more than 32,000 views in a little over seven years (shown below).



Spread

On March 30th, 2017 to Vimeo by user PikaCommando, who dubbed Half-Life sound effects over Star Wars footage (shown below).

On May 21st, 2017, YouTuber UberOfFP posted a compilation of Scientist NPC noises titled "STAHP," gaining over 162,000 views (shown below). On August 1st, YouTube "i'm a huge faggot" made a parody dubbing the sound effects over a clip from Steven Universe (shown below, right).



The trend grew much more popular in the spring and summer of 2019. Some of the most popular videos from this time include an April 30th, 2019 parody by Clazette that gained over 212,000 views (shown below, left) and a July 29th, 2019 video by DAMN SON that scores traumatic movie scenes with Half-Life sound effects, gaining over 270,000 views (shown below, right).
