A Markiplier FNAF edit turning the Bite of 87 line into a fumble joke with the Purple Guy, used for gaming fails and sports mistake reactions.

The clip is an edited Markiplier voice line that swaps the famous Bite of 87 moment from Five Nights at Freddy's lore for a fumble, tying the joke to the Purple Guy and, in many reposts, Zay Flowers. It sounds like a shocked reaction delivered mid-gameplay, rising in disbelief before landing on the date punchline. That sudden switch from horror lore to a costly mistake makes it land as instant mockery, perfect for a dropped ball, a missed play, or any blunder that feels historically bad to the person watching it unfold live.

The joke builds on Five Nights at Freddy's lore and on Markiplier's famous shocked reaction to the Bite of 87, a line fans have quoted for years. Editors later remixed that delivery into fumble versions, connecting the Purple Guy imagery with Zay Flowers and with sports clips where one mistake changes a game. It sits naturally alongside sounds like the FNAF jumpscare scream in gaming edits, because both rely on instant recognition from FNAF fans. Its popularity comes from that crossover, letting one short line mock horror lore and a painful sporting error at the same time.

Pro Tip for Usage

✦ AI

Place the line right after the fumble or fail is fully visible, not before it, so the 87 punchline hits as the replay sinks in. Pair it with a slow zoom on the mistake and cut the music just before the delivery.

Use Cases

✦ AI
  • Drop it after a receiver fumbles near the goal line.
  • Use it when a streamer throws away a winning run.
  • Add it to edits of a goalkeeper dropping an easy catch.
  • Play it after a friend deletes their best game save.
