About

Tuco "GET OUT" Scream, also known as Salamanca Sliders or simply Get Out Meme, refers to a viral TikTok sound that resembles the voice of the Breaking Bad series character Tuco Salamanca (played by actor Raymond Cruz) loudly screaming "get out." The sound effect first appeared on iFunny in May 2023 but was popularized in April 2024 on TikTok, frequently being used in ironic memes as a gimmick for abruptly cut-off videos with the scream.
