- Creator: Jimmy MacDonald
- Owner: The Walt Disney Company (1941-1992), The Hollywood Edge (1992-2014), Sound Ideas (2014-present)
- Origin: United States
- Year debut: January 10, 1941
- First heard: Timber (a Donald Duck short)
- Area used: Worldwide
The sound effect was recorded by Jimmy MacDonald in 1940 and was made from a bicycle horn. It is originally a Disney sound effect that debuted in 1941 with the Donald Duck short Timber and it was used as one of Disney's trademark horn sound effects in their cartoons and movies (like Peter Pan, An Extremely Goofy Movie and Winnie the Pooh: Springtime with Roo). It was also used for when a character falls with a thud.
The Hollywood Edge would later add it to its Cartoon Trax Volume 1 library in 1992. After the bankruptcy of The Hollywood Edge in 2014, Sound Ideas took over to acquire this sound effect.
It is commonly still used in media today (like Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, Sherlock Gnomes and A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon), along with other Disney horn sound effects from the library. This sound also makes heavy use for Tinky Winky's bottom sound from Teletubbies while a pitch +9 version of it makes heavy use for Po's bottom sound from the show.
