Late to the party but I learned about skibidi when babysitting for my neighbor. She is from Afghanistan and speaks little English or the local language, but we get by. Her son, though, spoke the local language well at 4 and was trying, in 4 year old language, to tell me what skibidi was without mentioning YouTube, because the distinction of YouTube film and representing something real was not clear yet in his child brain.

The sound effects he used were so hilarious and confusing. If I can remember right he said "it's this monster head that comes out of the [ground] and goes 'bwaaaam' ". Think of Sound effects for Interstellar lol.

I genuinely thought for a bit that this was some folklore from Afghanistan that I'd never heard of til I tried to ask his mom wtf he was talking about and she was confused but mentioned it possibly being something about a toilet and we looked it up hahahah

In any case, Marg bar amriika
