So I'm watching Fortress of Roundness- a rerun of Diggers (which I'm not exactly proud of saying), and idiot #2- King George let's out what I believe to be an approximation of the Wilhelm Scream. I rewound it several times and it sounds accurate. Probably not the actual dubbed in Scream, but I think it's pretty close. You can YouTube the Wilhelm Scream to see what I'm talking about. Anyway, I thought I'd share it. It's a little like treasure hunting cause you never know when you'll stumble upon it, but when you find it you have no doubt what it is.

This video changed my opinion of them. It's of their personal finds. Some amazing stuff.

I should say instead that it's a guilty pleasure of mine to watch the show. I like how as a reality show they are not dirty or try to break the boundaries of good taste. I do like the goofiness and the hollering is silly good fun. Better than a lot of shows that just make you feel dirty for watching them.

I found the op really hysterical, so I naturally went to ytube to hear scream.
The Wilhelm scream was initially recorded for a 1951 Gary Cooper film �� Distant Drums. Scream was a man getting bit by an alligator.
Then in a 1953 western movie �� Charge at Feather River, the character "Wilhelm" gets an arrow �� in leg and the scream is reused/born as the Wilhelm Scream.
Sound Effects Director, Ben Burt, also included the scream in all Indiana Jones + Star Wars movies.
Thanks Dr.Whitty.
Peace ✌

It's too bad they don't act "normal" like that on their show, it might keep more of us interested in it. That video was how I would expect someone to behave while discussing a find, the better side if them I think.
