A high pitched cartoon scream from Tom and Jerry, used for pain, shock and funny fail moments in edits, memes and reaction videos online today.

This is Tom letting out one of his famous cartoon screams after something goes badly wrong. The yell starts sharp and high, stretches out with a wobbly, panicked edge, and sounds both painful and ridiculous at the same time. It is not a realistic cry of pain, which is why it works so well for comedy. Hearing it instantly tells the viewer that a character has been caught, crushed, tricked or surprised, even before you see the full gag. The exaggeration turns a small mishap into a big, slapstick moment that lands immediately.

Tom and Jerry began in 1940 as MGM cartoon shorts created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, centred on the endless rivalry between Tom the cat and Jerry the mouse. Tom's exaggerated screams became a running gag across the series, voiced in the early years by Hanna himself performing the yells. Clips of those screams were later ripped from episodes and shared on YouTube and soundboards, where editors adopted the short yell as a universal reaction for pain, panic and cartoon punishment in modern meme videos.
