About
Ralph In Danger or I'm In Danger refers to an image of the character Ralph Wiggum from The Simpsons sitting on a bus with the caption "(chuckles) I'm in danger." The screenshot developed into a reaction image meme often paired with captions describing situations in which one might see themselves in danger.
Origin
The scene from which the screenshot comes is "The Simpsons Guy," a Family Guy episode in which the cast visits Springfield and enters The Simpsons universe. The episode aired on September 28th, 2014[1] (scene shown below).
Spread
The image began becoming a reaction image in March of 2018. On March 29th, Redditor FlimFlambadam[2] uploaded an image to /r/me_irl which gained over 4,800 upvotes (shown below).
