Trevor Noah: Lost in Translation - The Origin of "Woo-Hoo"

such a fun sound sound of Happiness the. sound of white happiness in particular. yeah I've tracked it I've searched for. the source of woohoo and I found it. originated with white. people white white women in particular. yeah that's where it comes from that is. the sound of a white woman's turnup that. is the sound of her getting into the. game it's like Tammy. woohoo and that's when you know it's. on yeah cuz everyone learned it from.

white woman that's where it came from. you know it spread through Society like. a virus it's not the natural sound. anybody else makes white women make that. sound instinctively but everyone else. has learned it like white men were the. first ones to learn it because for them. it's sort of like a mating call they. know what it means they have to. reciprocate like woohoo. wo but everyone else had to learn it's a. natural sound for them but for nobody. else like black people woohoo but it's. not the natural sound black people make. for fun you know black people can woohoo. black people often do woohoo but it's. not instinctively a black sound of.

happiness and I think it's because black. people are uncomfortable with the. woohoo deep down inside there's a. certain moment in woohoo when every. black person stops enjoying it there's. just there's just a. moment when and maybe this is just my. personal experiences but I feel it. sounds eerily similar to a police siren. there's just a. moment where it stops being. fun just that Split Second was like. woohoo woo.

W like put your hands in the. air and keep them. there it's not the sound of happiness in. my life that's not although I guess. that's why white people do it cuz white. people love calling the police so they. probably like woohoo oh my God the cops. are here Party Time come on in I thought. you'd never make it.
