The Laughing Baby is an Internet neologism given to a YouTube viral video of a baby laughing. The video has become an internet phenomenon with over 6 million views. Uploaded by a Swedish man under the pseudonym of spacelord72, and later re-uploaded and popularized by another user known as BlackOleg, the "Laughing Baby" is one of the few internet memes that have entered popular culture.
The Laughing Baby video, which was shot by a Swedish father in his kitchen in 2006, has a running time of 1:40, and involves a fixed camera situated on William Nilsson, a blond-haired, blue eyed baby, who laughs after brief interjections from a voice in the background (supposedly the father). The video opens with the Swedish text: "kan man ha roligare" which translates as "Can you have any more fun?"
The clip has become known for its disparate variety of commenters – from the amused to those concerned for the baby's health. These comments were the focus of a Slate article by Michael Agger, who remarked that uploading the video was like "dipping a bunny into acid," further adding that the "Laughing Baby has become an internet monument, and posting a remark is like tagging your name on the Statue of Liberty."
