The Diddy Laugh is a very commonly used sound effect which often appears in TV, radio and film. When I hear it, it is like being hit in the ears with an iron. I like to point it out to people, who usually look blankly at me. Now I pass this affliction on to you.

Heard on Brother Label Printer advert

It's a very quick snatch, but it's undoubtedly the Diddy Laugh. There are longer versions of this advert in America, but the laugh only seems to appear on this edit:

(The laugh appears at the very start, and again at 20 seconds)

Heard in The Chernobyl Diaries

Subtle one, this. Good ears, Rob! This is not the usual "up and down" section of the laugh, but a rarer early part: Anyone know if it appears in the actual film?
