If there’s one thing the internet loves, it’s spreading misinformation for the memes. In the midst of news flooding (sorry) through the internet about the OceanGate Titan submersible implosion, Five Nights At Freddy’s ended up becoming a part of the story on TikTok. It’s all thanks to a viral audio clip from the games that’s being passed off as “audio of the noises” coming from the missing vessel.
If you’re unfamiliar with the OceanGate Titan situation, on June 18, five passengers took a submersible called the Titan down into the Atlantic Ocean to see the Titanic’s wreckage. The voyage had a tragic end, as two hours into the trip, all communication with the Titan was lost. Debris of the wreck was discovered four days later on June 22, confirming the submersible imploded and all five passengers were killed. In the days between its descent and discovery, search attempts were made that included using Sonar. In doing so, a Canadian P-3 aircraft detected banging sounds initially believed to be from the Titan. Once TikTok got word that there was audio of the submersible, it went to town on making jokes using viral clips, including one based on Five Nights At Freddy’s.
The game audio originates from a fan-made video depicting series’ antagonist William Afton begging his son Michael to let him out of somewhere, and it comes complete with banging on the exit to really sell it. The video was made by YouTuber Squimpus McGrimpus as part of an analog horror game set in the Five Nights at Freddy’s fiction and features a vocal performance by Nolan David.
