Seeing so many animations spawn from this one moment has been one of the coolest things I've ever seen while doing RUclips Thanks for this great breakdown :)
@Raytheslay fr bro… i literally clicked on a single clip of it because i was curious, now my recommendations are completely flooded with this annoying voice.
The Switch Effect seems to have struck in full force for Forgotten Land, which has accelerated the Kirby franchise into the mainstream far more than most would've expected.
the best part is when the creator acknowledges and owns that what they've done has become a massive meme, which has happened fully here, with a "beam attack" sequel later in the playthrough + failboat reacting to some of the animations people have done
Being a long time failboat fan for years this is the last clip I would have expected to become a meme I mean I'm glad failbkats finally getting recognized but it's weird that this is the clip
The same Failboat video actually spawned another debate within the Kirby fandom… *Can Kirby Jaywalk* (Assuming that the Planet Popstar follows US traffic laws)
Honestly, even with all the talented animators covering it, nothing quite tops Kirby just using a hyper-powered mech suit from the original clip. It is just that extra layer of ovekill I think the other versions lack.
Just a quick note for anyone coming across this meme who hasn't heard of Failboat before: Watch his stuff. This is a pretty average Failboat joke (I'm honestly not sure exactly why it got memed as opposed to some of his other stuff) and there's definitely much more where this beautiful work of art came from!
It honestly feels so weird that of all things beam attack got memed as if it was anything from Fail I would expect it to be something like the "You wake up" guy.
It's a nice summer Tuesday morning. You wake up. Beam Attack now has a “meme explanation” type of video made for it. You smile, putting down your phone. You feel proud of being part of the Failboat community.
I'm honestly surprised this made it here. I assumed it was just an random momenty no one is gonna talk about at first, but then I keep seeing animations about it and now realized that... it's pretty big
As someone among the crowd that watched when the original stream when it was up, seeing one of Failboat's smaller bits explode in popularity is VERY surreal
It's interesting how this meme became so popular. I can't even really think of any other Kirby memes, so maybe it's popular due to how memorable it is?
There's Kirb, Gourmet Race, NOVA dying, 1, 2, Oatmeal, Dedede's crouch in Smash, a smaller one with Meta Knight winning a Grammy, Kirby falling down a canyon (from the anime), and probably more I'm forgetting.
I watched the Toxic Pea Parody yesterday thinking it was the real deal before clicking it. Was excited to see a true analysis of the meme from you afterwards, so nice to see its official now.
Well this particular trend is mostly isolated to RUclips, with the biggest videos not even reaching 500 thousand views, so it makes perfect sense how most people probably haven’t heard of this.
Yeaaahhhh, I was waiting for this one! I got really happy when I saw this moment was becoming a meme. Cool to see one of the resident funnymen I enjoy getting an additional spotlight like that, y'know?
Kirby hits that poor Waddle Doo so hard that he sent him into the Afterlife as a marketable plushie. The lore is right. Kirby really is the god of destruction.
@Raytheslay well okay that’s your opinion don’t need to randomly say it in a reply and shove it down someone’s throat, if you really don’t like his content don’t go to his videos.
I'm surprised that out of all things that have appeared as memes over the course of this year, something from Failboat's countless jokes and personal memes on his channel would become so popular here. XD

failed boat
Kirby has always been in the meme community but it's always nice to see this franchise be more popular! Congrats to everyone mentioned in the video!
@Raytheslay good for you
@Raytheslay but your face certainly is funny
@Raytheslay I actually agree, but I've been saturated in so much of the stuff that I cannot recognize it as anything else but.
@Raytheslay fr bro… i literally clicked on a single clip of it because i was curious, now my recommendations are completely flooded with this annoying voice.

I'm so proud of my boy Failboat for hitting the big time like this
for some reason i read that as fallout 💀
@Raytheslay you're an L, stop talking
@Raytheslay Are you AXXL 2?
@Raytheslay here’s your attention
@Raytheslay says the clickbaiter with 200 subs and claims to not be 11
the best part is when the creator acknowledges and owns that what they've done has become a massive meme, which has happened fully here, with a "beam attack" sequel later in the playthrough + failboat reacting to some of the animations people have done
Beam attack is also mentioned in like every single one of his videos Kirby or not whether father like it or not
“Maybe I’ll pass away this time!
HEART ATTACK!!!”
I’m so glad that Failboat finally became a meme
But OF ALL things he said, it’s weird that THIS became a meme
Being a long time failboat fan for years this is the last clip I would have expected to become a meme I mean I'm glad failbkats finally getting recognized but it's weird that this is the clip
Honestly I expected the 'You wake up' intro fail does for animal crossing to become a meme
I’m also 99% sure that both of his Miitopia playthroughs were filled with memes, but none of them became as big as BEAM ATTACK
Oh and who could forget about the entire jaywalking segment
yeah this is like the most normal joke he has ever made if people saw anything else he did they would luagh much harder than they did at this
It seems like every RUclipsr who reaches 1 million subs gets at least one meme made for them
And as a Failboat fan I’m happy
But i thought you were a kirby fan?
@@lagnarok5172 I am that as well
@@lagnarok5172 those often overlap
Same here, it's a good day in meme city.
That also included Nathaniel Bandy being Nathaniel B.
The same Failboat video actually spawned another debate within the Kirby fandom…
*Can Kirby Jaywalk*
(Assuming that the Planet Popstar follows US traffic laws)
Kirby does NOT jaywalk and it is final.
@@Leaffyleaff king dedede however...
He'd say he can jaywalk because he "owns the roads."
And then silly dillo IS the road.
@@Leaffyleaff kirby would only jaywalk because he doesn't realize it's illegal, once he does he apologizes to all the roads he's jaywalked across
ive always loved failboat, and seeing him finally get recognized by some very important people
big war giraffe robobot!

@@flershnork Exactly!
@@flershnork i expected it to be failnut
@@flershnork I personally expected it to be the flirty chat
I don’t know why but I think most of the animators don’t even know who failboat is
It's a nice summer Tuesday morning.
You wake up.
Beam Attack now has a “meme explanation” type of video made for it.
You smile, putting down your phone. You feel proud of being part of the Failboat community.
Agreed
KIRBY FANDOM! WHERE GODDAMN RANDOM ASS FRASE BECOMES RANDOM ASS MEMES
Yep
@@littlevirus3562 phrases*
Are the black parts above a Waddle Doo's eye eyelashes or antennae like a cockroach, because they seem awfully flexible to just be the former?
They're eyelashes. Other Kirby enemies which are actually based on bugs have antlers.
Eyelashes. A sort of upgrade to the Waddle Doo is King Doo, and instead of the eyelashes it has a little swoosh of blonde hair.
They are exposed nerves.
@@thwartjetterson1350 *Don't you dare combine the memes*
Makes no sense for these to be eyelashes because they dont protect the eye at all
Someone needs to show this to Failboat. He’d love it so much.
I think he reacted to a bunch of them, maybe on one stream
The chance of seeing someone with a dunsparce pfp is very...sparce
@@obiwancannoli1920 true
purple shep: UncLE fAiLbOot yOu ARe a MemE!
@@slyuq yup, half of the Pokemon Presents stream was reacting to those
you know beam attack has taken over the internet when lessons in meme culture makes a video about it
im very happy about this
Failboat deserves this recognition he is super funny
It seemed like an underground meme at the time but it's blown up so big now holy crap. Fail gettin' the recognition he deserves haha
I like the jaywalk talk more tbh it’s just really funny seeing him fight with his chat about a pink blob following traffic rules.
Now I'm regretting not making my own version lmao
It's not too late!
Lmao
lol
Same 😔
“Where did ‘beam attack’ come from?”
All failboat watchers:
I'm honestly surprised this made it here. I assumed it was just an random momenty no one is gonna talk about at first, but then I keep seeing animations about it and now realized that... it's pretty big
Yeah it's pretty crazy how this all happened.
As soon as I saw the first animation, I knew it was only a matter of time before it blew up.
@Raytheslay If this is mid, what the hell are you?
@@captainblue5096 Lowest of the lows?
@@rogankane6901 Yeah pretty much
Glad to see failboat get recognition
Same, glad this channel allows small unknown people to get some exposure
@Raytheslay bro shut up what are you like 5
@Raytheslay unfunny🤓
@ Eh, I wouldn’t say small and unknown. Failboat has a million subscribers now, and that was long before the Beam Attack meme.
@@captainblue5096 I know, it was ironic
The fact that Failboat had a long ass rant about Jaywalking in the video and that ended up not being the memed moment is hilarious
Man being there and seeing a meme be born is a true experience
I didn't even think it would get this big but I'm happy that it did
This is Kirby's 30th anniversary and along with the release of Kirby and the Forgotten Land the brand has never been stronger!
Don't forget the dream buffet
And now Kirby Return to Dreamland Deluxe
As a fans of Failboat since 2020, I feel really proud of him. Also, Failboat scream is always the best
Hell yeah
I still remember when he's still making videos with exploding TNT but look how far he had come now ✨
i used to watch exploding tnt's vids, good times
Waddle doo's legacy of his beam attack will not be forgotten, and he is forgiven once he reaches the pearly white gates.
Failboat would be so happy that his clip turned into a meme, Kirby has always been a meme.
*”Imagine if lessons in meme culture actually did this”* - me on toxic peas video
Nice
I’m not gonna lie, I only recently got into kirby memes again and it’s nice to see us get recognized
Someone made a joke so funny that the entire class, no. THE ENTIRE SCHOOL REPEATED IT.
So great that Failboat made it to this channel
I saw the parody one before this so when I saw you actually made one of these I had to do a double check to see if it was really yours this time XD
Not to mention that you turn into a marketable plushy when you go to heaven
I’m happy to see fail in the spotlight, I always thought he deserved much more attention
I was waiting for this
Also I think failboats voice fits waddle doo perfectly
As someone among the crowd that watched when the original stream when it was up, seeing one of Failboat's smaller bits explode in popularity is VERY surreal
Lmao, i thought this was the one by Toxic Pea for a sec. Both of you did a great job though!!
Ah gottem again ggs
So glad to see more of my favorite content creators getting recognition
It's interesting how this meme became so popular. I can't even really think of any other Kirby memes, so maybe it's popular due to how memorable it is?
It’s popular because artists like you decided to put the effort into remaking a relatively simple video clip.
There's Kirb, Gourmet Race, NOVA dying, 1, 2, Oatmeal, Dedede's crouch in Smash, a smaller one with Meta Knight winning a Grammy, Kirby falling down a canyon (from the anime), and probably more I'm forgetting.
@@alejjtheninja5803 And Kirby’s got a gun and just anime Dedede in general.
@@alejjtheninja5803 yeah but you usually only see those memes inside the Kirby fandom
@@cranberryjuice1589 Kirby falling down is popular in the meme community in general but never got the treatment as beam attack
Kinda crazy seeing my favorite youtuber get a LIMC video
I love to see the Kirby community growing
I watched the Toxic Pea Parody yesterday thinking it was the real deal before clicking it. Was excited to see a true analysis of the meme from you afterwards, so nice to see its official now.
“Hi”
@@ToxicPea Hello!
@@thebucketgod9177 good to see another Huey fan put there.
This isn't real. No way did I get my stupid video as the FIRST clip in a lessons in meme culture video.
This was your destiny all along, dragon warrior. ;)
Congrats 👏
I Am So Glad You Covered This!
As a proud Kirby fan, I’m so glad that Kirby is getting memes and attention nowadays. And no other than beam attack! 😂
I PREDICTED THIS WILL SHOW UP ON LIMC WOAH
Good to see a failboat clip becoming a large scale meme
I enjoy watching his videos already and I'm supprised this hasn't already happened
who knew that this one little bit could become such a meme that LIMC had to cover it?
such a funny joke
beam attack has got to be one of my favourite trilogies
instantly beating out any other film, book or show trilogy
Man I started watching Failboat maybe 6 years ago and this is so cool to see
Being on LIMC is basically saying youve made it
I can't believe I'd see a Failboat joke covered on this channel
I watched this when the video came out, I never expected that small little gag to gain so much traction so quickly.
I’m glad failboat is getting the recognition he deserves for being so ridiculously funny
What a time to be a Failboat fan, i love seeing one of my favorite YT content creators get more screen time and recognized
I said it before and I'll say it again, I literally don't know these memes exist until limc talks about them. Education stuff
Well this particular trend is mostly isolated to RUclips, with the biggest videos not even reaching 500 thousand views, so it makes perfect sense how most people probably haven’t heard of this.
Yo, I'm subbed to this man. I can't believe this is a full-blown meme now.
Kind of weird how this meme didn't catch on until the second episode lol
The second part definitely solidified the first half.
YES! I've been waiting for this!!!
Kirby finally getting more popularity! Makes me so happy!
So happy to see one of my earliest and most favorite RUclipsrs go viral, go Failboat!
wasn’t expecting a limc video of this but wow
Yeaaahhhh, I was waiting for this one! I got really happy when I saw this moment was becoming a meme.
Cool to see one of the resident funnymen I enjoy getting an additional spotlight like that, y'know?
Failboat made it onto LIMC let's gooo
@Raytheslay you done replying to every comment like this?
I'm so glad my favorite youtuber since like 2016 is getting so damn popular omg
*Legends said that Waddle Doo is still trying to hit Kirby with the beam attack*
ive always loved his kirby videos so im glad that hes spawned a popular meme from it :))
Finally a kirby meme making other appearance :D
1:09 "Isn't identity theft the most sincere form of flattery?" -Anais Watterson, The Amazing World of Gumball.
Yes
Kirby hits that poor Waddle Doo so hard that he sent him into the Afterlife as a marketable plushie.
The lore is right. Kirby really is the god of destruction.
@Raytheslay Oh yeah. Buzz off.
ok
I just suggested this yesterday! Thanks for making it!
he probably didn’t make it because you suggested it, it was probably because he saw toxic pea’s video and made it
To imagine that this little clip from Failboat would become so big was something I did not see coming, but oh boy do I love it
I was actually there during the initial stream, so I get some sense of joy being someone who witnessed this meme's beginning
LETS GO FAILBOAT YOU MADE IT!
I've watched for around 5? Years and you've now gotten an limc video!
I can’t believe it failboat is finally funny
Wdym he always has been funny-
This is probably the first time I actually saw and knew the origins of the meme before the LIMC video came out. Great stuff! 👍
who would've thought failboat would become a meme
Failboat has always been a meme. He's only just revealed himself.
E-everyone
it's nice to see one of my favorite youtubers have a meme made of him.
I just saw the parody, so seeing this after it makes this funny in some way
Yes
@@ToxicPea Yes
You know its great, when limc makes a video on it
Huh. Neat.
Huh. Neat.
Huh. Neat.
Huh. Neat.
Congratulations you are in a LIMC video I’m so proud!
When ones makes it onto LIMC, you know you done good.
I'm so glad failboat's insanity is spreading.
@Raytheslay Beam Attack!
So glad that one of failboat’s bits hit it big. He’s such a swell fellow :3
I swear everything that i watch becomes a meme afterwards
@Raytheslay well okay that’s your opinion don’t need to randomly say it in a reply and shove it down someone’s throat, if you really don’t like his content don’t go to his videos.
I'm so glad to have been a part of the stream where this happened.
As a long time fan of failboat, it makes me so happy to see this clip blow up.
Beam attack!
_OK, maybe I'll get him next time_
Beam attack!
_I'll get him this time_
Beam atta- *AAAH!*
_(waddle doo goes to heaven)_
Waddle Doo keeps missing because he lacks depth perception
I’ve been waiting for this thank you
6 people knew this meme was a thing
Nah i'm pretty sure just you didn't know of it
On god tf is this meme
I am all of those 6 (I consumed the other 5 yummy)
Im so happy for one of my favorite youtubers
The dislike button: beam attack!
the fact that this guy made a video about it is insane
Failboat must be so proud.
This is a great day for Waddle Doo and Kirby fans and we have Beam Attack for that.
Fail boat is actually awesome
the fact that box failboat and toxic pea made it to this channel feels unreal, its super cool to see how popular this meme recently got!
I'm surprised that out of all things that have appeared as memes over the course of this year, something from Failboat's countless jokes and personal memes on his channel would become so popular here. XD
next up: the jaywalking conversation from the same video
I was waiting for you to cover this lol
