# Oh No Monkey Oh No Monkey, also known as Planet of the Apes' 'Oh No!' Monkey, is a video exploitable using a clip from the 2017 film War for the Planet of the Apes, in which the character Bad Ape yelps 'Oh no! Nono no no no!' while rejecting a plan. TikTok creators ran with the clip in late May 2024 for POV sketches about bad news, with a hospital-room edit by @bushesareprettycool topping four million plays in three days. ## Origin The source footage was uploaded on July 12th, 2017, when the official Planet of the Apes YouTube channel posted a clip called 'Bad Ape and Maurice' from War for the Planet of the Apes, in which Bad Ape refuses a request from Maurice by stammering 'Oh no! Nono no no no!'[1]. By 2024, the upload had passed 928,000 views[4]. A green screen cutout uploaded by user Its3adwy to the template site CreatorSet on April 24th, 2023 recorded 322 downloads before TikTok creators found it[5]. - **Platform:** YouTube (source clip) / TikTok (viral spread) - **Creator:** Unknown - **Date:** 2024 ## Overview Edits layer the Bad Ape clip over a static background using a green screen cutout, so the panicking chimp appears to react to whatever caption the creator writes above him[1]. The captions almost always use a POV setup about bad news or an unwelcome reveal, with the audio timed so Bad Ape's 'Oh no!' lands on the punchline[5]. Typical posts stage scenarios like a weekend ruined by a work email or Batman showing up with a PS5 after a bad diagnosis[2][3]. Humor comes from the gap between the sincere terror of Bad Ape's performance in War for the Planet of the Apes and the trivial misfortunes attached to it in the edits. ## How to Use Making an Oh No Monkey edit typically means placing the green screen cutout of Bad Ape over a chosen background image or video, then adding a POV caption that triggers his 'Oh no!' as the reveal of bad news[5]. Timing the clip so Bad Ape's panic hits on the punchline is the common approach. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Oh No Monkey?
