Suddenly, the wind-up monkey stops playing as the camera zooms in to the monkey's face, which switched to a still of a real screaming monkey with a loud primate scream, and white text appears reading "Why do you think they call it DOPE?". This is generally considered to be the very first video ever made which can be called a screamer as we know it today.
