For the sequel, see Moving Laptop 2.
Moving Laptop is a screamer video uploaded to YouTube by DiscoverGuy1999 on May 11, 2023. This video is similar to that of the infamous Ghost Caught on Tape screamer by Steve Zuranski/SZWorld.
The video starts in the uploader's dining room with a night vision filter, with a Dell computer present on the left, as an episode of Sesame Street plays softly in the background, discussing Numberblocks. After around 30 seconds of this shot, the computer starts moving on its own, and then a cutout of Buck Dancer (the alter-ego of Larry David) from Curb Your Enthusiasm on two popsicle sticks appears right in front of the computer and jumps directly into the camera with a distorted version of the scream from Ghost Caught on Tape.
On April 21, 2024, Discover made a sequel due to the prequel's success.
Behind the Scenes
DiscoverGuy1999 came up with the idea of making this screamer video during when he was taken the Grade 6 Mathematics Fast Test on the same school day as the video's upload date. He would go under the table and secretly move the computer to act like a ghost is moving the computer. This made the making of the screamer come to his mind when he finished the school day.
After getting home, he tried making the screamer outside, but didn't end up looking like a ghost was moving the computer in the recording as his hand was present. He tried the dining room table, and was used in the final cut. He played Sesame Street episode 4325 (also known as Porridge Art), and add an audio clip of him saying "I heard that Numberblocks is airing on Netflix." from a far distance. As soon as the video started, he crawled under the table the video was filmed in and slowly pushed the bottom of the computer.
It took a few attempts to get this scene right. Discover wanted to make sure the computer was as close to the table and as far off the edge as possible to ensure his hand was not shown in the video, ruining the twist.
