Proclivities wrote:The Wilhelm scream is a frequently-used film and television stock sound effect first used in 1951 for the film Distant Drums. The effect gained new popularity (its use often becoming an in-joke) after it was used in Star Wars and many other blockbuster films as well as television programs and video games. The scream is often used when someone is shot, falls from a great height, or is thrown from an explosion.

It's a pretty funny clip. Thanks for that, I'll keep an ear out

I think mom's these days maybe a little more aware of the double meaning to the word "bike". Thanks for the advice!
