The helicopter helicopter is a meme that got generated around November of this year. According to YouTube, the original video is about five seconds long. The video features a young Arab boy that has placed himself as a seat for the motorbike. His face is the headlight while his hands rest on the wheel of the Transformer-like vehicle. The serious expression on the boy’s face makes the video even more hilarious. The shot clip has managed to gather over 150,000 views in a few short days. On TikTok, the sound is famous as Helikopter by Fezlija.
