What does the “Run, Berg!” meme mean?
The phrase is used to react to a situation that suddenly turns chaotic, calling for an immediate escape. It works for both real danger and a silly, embarrassing situation, always with that exaggerated, comic tone of someone in total panic.
Where does the “Run, Berg!” meme come from?
On March 18, 2012, in the Jardim Veneza neighborhood of João Pessoa, a crew from TV Correio, a Record affiliate, was covering live the shooting of a man outside a bar. While cameraman Roberg Santos filmed the scene, the shooter approached and fired again at the victim, who survived. In the panic, reporter Josenildo Gonçalves shouted “Meu Deus do céu, corre Berg!” at his colleague, and the two ran off. The clip gained traction online starting in 2014, mostly through Youtube Poop videos, and the line stuck as a panic reaction.
