This is like a running joke they do. They reuse the sounds on purpose. The Wilhelm Scream is everywhere when you know how to listen for it.

Much like the wilheim scream, it’s a popular stock sound effect. It’s in the intro of diddy kong racing, but it’s in all kinds of movies like Mulan, Monsters inc 2, Taken, the simpsons movie, Xmen 2, Gladiator. hot fuzz, wrath of the titan, resident evil the final chapter just to name a few.

If I am ever plummeting to my death, I hope I have the presence of mind to do a Wilhelm scream.

Good luck, it’s a hard one to imitate on the fly. I still can’t hit that high note.

I think the fear of impending death helps you reach the higher octave.
