La Caída de Edgar (Edgar's Fall) is one of the earliest and most iconic viral videos in YouTube history, originating from Mexico in 2006. The clip features a young boy named Edgar attempting to cross a stream via a makeshift log bridge while his friend Fernando mockingly threatens to knock him into the water. Despite Edgar's desperate and hilarious pleas of '¡Ya, güey!' (Enough, dude!), Fernando shakes the logs, sending Edgar plunging into the muddy water. The video became a global sensation, spawning countless parodies, remixes, and even television commercials. Today, it remains a quintessential template for representing betrayal, inevitable failure, or the moment a joke goes slightly too far.
