Spider-Man and Elsa videos, better known under the umbrella term 'Elsagate,' refer to a wave of surreal, low-budget, and often disturbing live-action and animated videos that flooded YouTube Kids starting around 2014. These videos typically featured unlicensed characters like Marvel's Spider-Man and Disney’s Elsa in bizarre scenarios involving pregnancy, medical procedures, or gross-out humor. While originally a source of controversy regarding child safety and algorithmic manipulation, the imagery has since been reclaimed by internet culture as a hallmark of surrealism and 'brain rot.' Memes using these templates often satirize the chaotic nature of automated content creation or evoke a sense of nostalgic dread for those who grew up watching the strange evolution of the internet's most puzzling subgenre.
