I knew it was probably going to be a screamer but being the idiot I am... I turned up the volume to max and put on my boze head phones... Lets just say that my ear drums are bleeding on the inside right now...

This is why I usually keep my volume on mute when browsing the internet.

After all those 90s horror movies I didn't think people were still scared by sudden movement.

That video would have been 200% more awesome if it contained a screamer for the unsuspecting watcher itself somewhere towards the ending.


I'm SO glad there wasn't. I would've gotten angry, and probably say a bad word!

I know this is a board "re-birth", but did we really have to start over from internet infancy and post screamers?

What's next, links to .cx sites? Internet chain messages?

I hate screamers.

Mostly because I tend to be hanging upside down from the roof when I get startled by something. >>

However, they're easy to avoid. xD I didn't get scared by this one.

A properly-constructed screamer will make people turn up the volume on their own, without needing the prerequisite "hay guyz turn up your volume first." Start it off with some ordinary, boring footage of a guy giving a lecture (with the volume cranked down, of course), let it run for a minute, and THEN whip out the screaming monster. Maybe spice it up a little before the payload by adding fart noises over the guy's lecture; make the video seem a little more "legitimate" in order to hold the viewer's attention (you could then advertise it as "hilarious farting lecturer" or something equally inconspicuous). You have to hit them when they absolutely do NOT expect it.

(Of course, having only seen one or two screamers myself, I dunno if this has already been done... )

Probably.

I didn't even know it was dubbed the term screamer before this.

Hell this was the first of its kind I saw just a few days ago. :\

There are a few that require you to actually do something, and then generate the screamer.

A while ago, one of the ones I saw had you do a simple, not-so-complex but not-so-easy maze, and after the second one, well.

Well, if you weren´t awake before, you certainly are now.

I've started avoiding clicking links on forums entirely unless they're clearly labeled and the post they're in apears intelligent, after clicking on one too many "OMG SHOCK VALUE" pictures of naked 800-pound girls etc.

I got one of my friends by using this. He said that it was the one and only screamer that got him. It didn't get me, though. I read through the entire thread, for I had my suspicions.

I feel... pretty special.
