The story · 2007

The story of Balloon Head Webcam Effect

The new clip-on webcam came with a disc of ridiculous effects, and the family computer was never the same. Heads swelled into balloons, necks stretched like noodles and faces wobbled like jelly. Kids took hundreds of photos after school, laughed until they cried and accidentally set one as the family desktop background.

Fun fact

The jelly wobble effect made everyone look like a startled potato, and it remained undefeated as the funniest one.
