This is an animated gif of a black actor on Star Trek going crazy / having a fit after watching something on his computer screen. My apologies; but I've never watched Star Trek before, so I'm unable to come up with the Actor/Character's name.
This gif has been around for a long time now. It is often used on forum boards whenever something extremely shocking has been posted (or if someone is being sarcastic and over-exaggerating how shocking something is).
If you have any idea who this black dude is, be sure to post the name of his character in the comments section below.
Look up his name on IMDB.
ReplyDeleteEnsign Haskell was a 24th century Starfleet officer serving as a relief conn officer aboard the USS Enterprise-D under Captain Jean-Luc Picard.
DeleteIn 2365, Haskell served at the conn when the Enterprise-D encountered Nagilum in an unknown void in the Morgana Quadrant. Haskell was killed from what appeared to be a massive cerebral hemorrhage as a subject in an experiment conducted by Nagilum in understanding the concept of "death".

I think his name is Black Trek
ReplyDeleteCan you stop with all of the "black guy" stuff? We can see he's black. That has nothing to do with what's happening in the gif.
ReplyDeleteHi,
DeleteI'm the owner of this blog. Basically, the term "black guy" was used because that's what people will search for if they don't know the name of the guy in the Gif.
Hi. More than a year later, I'm here, I ended here looking for sauce on this particular gif. God bless you, you're a good man. Good lad.
DeleteHe dies right after this
ReplyDeleteHe actually isn't surprised about anything on his screen. The Enterprise is trapped in some sort of space hole and an entity is performing experiments on them, and it kills this unfortunate crewman like this. Oh, and I only found it by typing in "black guy" who cares?
ReplyDeleteThis gif always goes with the one that shows on a screen the text "KFC shuts down". Yes racist. But as a black man myself, I must say it is very funny indeed.
ReplyDeleteI think this is season 2 episode 2 and the guys name is something like Haskell
ReplyDeleteDorian Harewood (David Estes in Homeland)
ReplyDeleteI found it by typing "star trek guy head crazy," then I realized he was black. Because he's black. Oh my god did you notice he was Black?
ReplyDeleteThe actor's name is Charles Douglass
