Mic Falls Into Markiplier's Mouth (2015)

This image is a screenshot of popular gaming YouTuber Markiplier seated indoors wearing a plain purple short-sleeved t-shirt. He is looking upward with his mouth fully agape in a shocked or surprised expression, creating a convincing visual illusion that a black studio microphone has fallen directly inside his mouth. The background features an exposed brick wall, a small white square side table holding a potted leafy plant, and part of a grey couch to the right. The humor of the meme comes from the perfectly timed shot that makes his open mouth and the microphone appear to be aligned as if the mic is inside his mouth.
