A phrase often spoken by the stop-motion character Pingu, usually as means of communication.

This phrase was later made into a meme in early 2022, when it was used in a 2-D animation made by YouTuber Telepurte (or @telepeturtle on Twitter). The animation consisted of Pingu saying “noot noot!” before a camera zoom-in showing Pingu with an eerie expression.

This meme was further developed when another animator, Pitchi Animation, created a 3-D version of this on YouTube. The video gained a whopping 4.7 million views in two months.
