If you started playing online games in 2005 or even earlier, you must have heard the most famous joke in the history of World of Warcraft or even the history of PC games, that is the story of Leeroy Jenkins and his teammates in Upper Black Rock Spire's collective death.

If you haven't seen the first video, it's still available on Warcraftmovies official site where it absolutely was first uploaded on May 11, 2005, and it's still even as funny because it was 15 years ago. Leeroy Jenkins is that the name of an individual's paladin who was apart of a raiding guild called Pals for Life. Within the video, Leeroy's teammates are debating how best to approach a difficult boss while Leeroy is AFK. When he returns, Leeroy doesn't expect his team—he jumps up and shouts "Let's do this!" and shouts his own name as a protracted battle cry as he charges into the fight alone. Startled by his sudden attack, Leeroy's guild scrambles to save lots of him and everybody dies. As his guild begins to chastise him, Leeroy responds "At least I have chicken."

Leeroy Jenkins was originally a humorous video recorded by these guild members for fun. They hope this video will attract more players to join their guild. But with the rapid spread of the video on the Internet, Leeroy Jenkins immediately became the most famous person in World of Warcraft, and many people believe that this really happened in the Upper Black Rock Spire. Every sentence that Leeroy Jenkins said in the video has become one of the classic memes, from "I'm coming up with 32.33, uh, repeating of course, percentage of survival" to Leeroy's dejected "It's not my fault."
