R.I.P. Caroll Spinney
R.I.P. Caroll Spinney, now named Big Bird Jumpscare is a screamer project uploaded on Scratch on December 9, 2019, by a user named KindAdaptableKayak, who was the creator of some YTPs. It was created in memory of the late Caroll Spinney, who is well-known for his roles on Sesame Street, most notably Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch.
The project begins with a black silhouette of Big Bird slowly rising from the bottom of the screen. During this sequence, a suspenseful segment of "The Attack on the House", a track from the Home Alone soundtrack composed by John Williams, can be heard.
Once Big Bird reaches the center of the screen, the music abruptly stops. After a 3-second pause, an extreme close-up of a knock-off Big Bird mascot's face suddenly appears, accompanied by a loud scream taken from the same movie, emitted by the character Marv Merchants (portrayed by Daniel Stern).
Following the jumpscare, a title card appears displaying the same title as the project. in the new version, this text was replaced with the word "end".
In 2021, a safe version of the project was uploaded. Unlike the original, this version replaces the jumpscare with an image of the actual Big Bird and uses a Vine Boom sound effect instead of the original scream. The Vine Boom is a sound effect widely used in internet memes.
The creator was eventually identified as NMTVE, who also went by the username "100daysonly".
