'''Countdown''' is a [[screamer]] video uploaded to [[YouTube]] on April 27th, 2009 by Steven Anderson.

The video is a two-digit digital clock, counting down from sixty seconds. It's fully silent and the number is green until reaches thirty seconds, at which point the theme song from the American game show ''[[Wikipedia:Jeopardy!|Jeopardy!]]'' begins to play and the number turns yellow. At fifteen seconds the number turns red and under ten seconds the number starts flashing red and white. When the time runs out, the background begins flashing and a buzzing sound ~~will play~~ for 2 seconds; a picture of [[Regan MacNeil]] from ''[[Wikipedia: The Exorcist|The Exorcist]]'' ~~will appear right after~~, ~~with~~ a generic, normal female scream that was also used in the game Slendytubbies.

When the time runs out, the background begins flashing and a buzzing sound plays for 2 seconds, and then the losing horn from the American game show ''[[Wikipedia:The Price is Right|The Price is Right]]'' before cutting to a picture of [[Regan MacNeil]] from ''[[Wikipedia: The Exorcist|The Exorcist]]'', accompanied by a generic, normal female scream that was also used in the horror game ''Slendytubbies''.

The video is designed to be a prank, aimed at people intending to use this as a countdown for any purpose. The video has accumulated over 300,000 views since its upload.

== Trivia ==

This video is rumored to be a modified version of another video published in 2006 with the same title and the same timer but with a different screamer. After the time hits 0, a video of a dark room starts playing and after a few seconds of pure silence and pitch black a person with a [[wikipedia:Krusty the Clown|Krusty the Clown]] mask from the American animated sitcom, [[wikipedia:The Simpsons|The Simpsons]] (with fake blood smeared on the eyes and mouth) jumps up from the bottom with an extremely loud blood-curling scream. Unfortunately, this video has been taken down for unknown reasons.
