About

Hampter refers to a series of videos centered around a picture of a frightened-looking hamster. After a YouTuber dubbed the character "Hampter," a small online community developed around the character, leading to multiple parodies across social media, as well as memes referencing the hamster.

The earliest known post of the original "Hampter" picture appeared on Russian site doodoo[1] on October 1st, 2014 (shown below).



On October 5th, 2020, YouTuber Boba Fett The Meme Lord posted a video in which the word "Hampter" appears over the picture of the hamster, gaining over 3,000 views (shown below).



Spread

Over the following several months, the video would be reposted by numerous accounts, the most popular of which was by Aqua Foxx, whose October 27th repost gained over 251,000 views (shown below, left). The spread of the video led to further parodies. On October 31st, user Hamster Invictus posted a similar video which gained over 260,000 views (shown below, right).



The meme grew over the following months to include parodies such as Meme Speedruns and 3D animations. For example, Hamster Invictus also posted several meme speedrun videos about Hampter.
