Boom Headshot
The catchphrase “Boom Headshot” originated in a 2006 webseries called “Pure Pwnage,” which you can see below. It was a mockumentary that followed the exploits of a pro-gamer who loved playing CounterStrike and maniacally yelled “Boom Headshot!” every time he got a head shot in the first person shooter.

This kids reaction and then explanation after getting shot in the head with two paintball guns at point blank range is hilarious.
