What Is Tubgirl?
During the early days of the internet, before platforms like YouTube existed, a website called Rotten.com gained notoriety for its explicit and shocking content. On December 12th, 2000, the site featured a header previewing an upcoming video that depicted a Japanese woman lying in a bathtub.
Regrettably, the image bore a resemblance to pulpless orange juice, giving the illusion that she was consuming it in the bathtub. However, it became apparent that the liquid in the image was not orange juice, leading to a profound sense of shock and astonishment among those who viewed it.
This is why you Never google it
Numerous TikTok users have actively cautioned others against typing the phrases ‘Tubgirl’ or ‘Tub Girl’ into their search engines. This online trend has gained significant traction on the social media platform and is connected to a list of things that TikTokers are advising against looking up. The reasons behind these warnings range from potentially triggering or distressing content to disturbing images, videos, or news stories that have garnered attention in the past and resurfaced on TikTok.
Given the sensitive and graphic nature of the content associated with ‘Tubgirl,’ many TikTok users are urging everyone to avoid searching for these images online. If you are sensitive to such explicit content, we strongly advise refraining from seeking it out.
Why Is Tubgirl Trending On TikTok?
As many are aware, TikTok is a relatively new platform compared to some others on the internet. Due to its predominantly young user base, the awareness of “Tubgirl” only surfaced on TikTok in recent times. In March 2021, Google searches for Tubgirl spiked significantly, reaching four times higher than in 2016 when PewDiePie watched the unsettling video and recorded his reaction.
Around a year later, in August 2022, Tubgirl resurfaced on TikTok, capturing the attention of the platform’s users once again. The reactions to the video have consistently been intense and emotionally distressing over the course of several decades.
What Were Some Reactions To Tubgirl?
As social media platforms gained popularity in the mid-2000s, the disturbing Tubgirl image made its presence felt. In 2005, it found its way into Urban Dictionary, a website famous for its “Don’t Google” challenges, featuring entries like the Alabama Hot Pocket or Rainbow Kisses (exercise caution when exploring such content).
In 2007, by an unfortunate accident, the Tubgirl image appeared on the front page of the gaming website Kotaku, leading to increased mainstream awareness. This, in turn, became a focal point in numerous early YouTube reaction videos, further amplifying its impact.
