This meme originated from a posted video called "X Wing Launch" The Model X-wing fails miserably after it takes off, and soon falls apart mid air. This is only a video meme, there are no picture variations.

From this failure to launch this Star Wars replica, one person created a reply video of what really caused the X-wing model to fall apart. In this video he shopped a Tie Fighter flying by and shooting at the X-wing.

After this video had been posted others attempted to make their own "what really happened videos" in which people faint, trip, or get knocked out.
