You don't realize it. When screaming (even better if it's an Overly Long Scream), yelling, or even sometimes talking normally, your voice suddenly cracks and deepens or squeaks. It can be embarrassing, and for comedy and/or Narm (or probably for Narm Charm), especially if you're also entering puberty at the time. Or maybe just plain too much testosterone. This is more likely to happen to male characters, though female characters can also be victims. A common gag is for a nervous character to voice-crack as they say something, then clear their throat and repeat it in a deliberately much deeper voice (this often occurs when a character is trying to sound tough and intimidating but can't quite pull it off). When it happens in drama (film/TV), it can be a signifier of fear, sadness or any other kind of emotional distress that causes the voice to crack when the person speaks. In music, it's often considered an Epic Fail for singers. Can be a result from Vocal Range Exceeded. Could lead to Vocal Dissonance. Not to be confused with Glass-Shattering Sound, where the voice causes something else to break. |

While recording Finn's voice for Adventure Time Jeremy Shada was entering puberty and his voice cracked during a session. Shada was fearful that he was going to lose his job and would have to be replaced, but to his surprise, Pendleton Ward found it funny and it became a recurring joke to have Finn's voice crack and allowed him to get older during the course of the show. | |

The Simpsons: One of the minor recurring characters is the Squeaky-Voiced Teen, a pimple-faced teenage boy whose voice breaks almost continuously. "Homer's Triple Bypass" has a flashback where Grandpa Simpson is in a church listening to Homer, as a young boy, singing in a church choir. Homer's voice then suddenly switches from a high-pitched youthful voice to his normal deep one and his singing goes from sounding good to sounding terrible. "The Blunder Years" has a different take on how Homer's voice changed, when 12-year-old Homer reacts to seeing Smithers Sr.'s decaying corpse; he starts constantly screaming in his high-pitched voice, but his voice suddenly deepens during one of the screams from puberty. |

During the recording of an Adventures in Odyssey episode, David Griffin (voice of Jimmy Barclay, one of the most prominent child characters in the show's early years) had his voice crack during the middle of recording a line (usually, a kid's voice cracking during the series usually led to a new voice of said character). However, instead of a replacement, the AIO writers even devoted an episode to Jimmy's voice changing; thus making Griffin one of the few child voice actors to be retained after going through puberty. | |

Steven Universe: During the play in "Historical Friction", this happens a tad to Jamie while performing as Pearl. It could be a Running Gag with Peridot; for example, in "When It Rains", when Steven tells Peridot that she "cracked" (as in, revealed her soft side), she retorts that she hasn't "cracked"... as she says so, her voice does. In "Message Received", as it becomes increasingly apparent that Yellow Diamond is Not So Stoic, she begins shouting to the point where her voice breaks. In "Change Your Mind," Yellow Diamond's voice breaks again when she's going on her Motive Rant. |

The Amazing World of Gumball: In "The Mustache", a muscled-up Gumball and Darwin's voices suddenly plummet while screaming at their normal high pitches. "The Kids" centers on Gumball and Darwin's suffering from extremely exaggerated voice breaking: Gumball calls Penny and her dad thinks he's some creep. He loses his voice when talking to her in person, making her dad think he's giving her the silent treatment. A store clerk thinks they're harassing him because they keep accidentally yelling. Their voices get so deep that a bus driver assumes they're adult dwarves trying to get kids fair and it interrupts their Disney Acid Sequence. In "The Sorceror", Mr. Small gets offended at the troll calling him "hon" and insists he's a man, all the while his voice cracks, making it sound higher-pitched. |

In The Rock, when General Hummel's men demand payment as he plans to abort the mission, he reveals that he never intended to use the rockets against the city of New York and the threat was merely a bluff, Captain Frye insists, "Who said anything about bluffing?" General Hummel orders him to stand down and repeats the order louder as the Captain persists, his voice cracking as he realizes that he has lost control of the situation. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Rainbow Dash’s voice cracks frequently. In the episode "Brotherhooves Social", Big Macintosh is in disguise as a mare named Orchard Blossom and most of the time when he's in that disguise, he affects a higher-pitched, feminine voice. Except for at the end of one song he sings with Apple Bloom where his voice drops back to his usual deep pitch at the very end by accident. Sweetie Belle was infamous for it, to the point of being fan-named 'Squeaky Belle'. When asked if it was intentional the actress confirmed that no, it was simply due to a thing called puberty and that her voice did that sometimes. As the seasons went on, Sweete Belle's voice matured to the point where it stopped cracking. |

Star Wars Rebels: "Stealth Strike": Ezra's voice cracks at one point while he's yelling at Chopper, just as the astromech is about to turn the gravity in the gravity well control room back on. You probably wouldn't expect a deep-voiced, Badass Normal recurring antagonist to be subject to this. But, as revealed in "The Honorable Ones", Agent Kallus has a tendency toward this when he's freaking out, in pain or really angry. At one point in "Through Imperial Eyes", he briefly goes up a full octave while telling off Ezra for getting himself arrested. |

The Rolling Stones’ “Gimme Shelter� - one of their most famous songs - has a moment at the end of the third hook where Merry Clayton’s voice cracks as she screams “Rape, murder, it’s just a shot away�. Arguably a subversive example of this trope, considering it’s become well loved by music fans and considered a classic moment. | |

In a particularly iconic moment on Hell's Kitchen, Gordon Ramsay's voice rises up several pitches out of sheer disbelief when he discovers one of the contestants thinks they can sauté scallops in a non-stick pan: And then there was the moment he discovered how pounds upon pounds of undercooked pasta had been thrown away instead of simply cooked for a few more seconds to completion. |

Red Dead Redemption 2: Toward the end of Chapter 6, during the final part of the mountain fight with Micah Bell if the player went with John Marston, while Arthur Morgan is crawling for Micah's revolver, when he says, "In the end, Micah... despite my best efforts to the contrary..." his voice becomes so strained and choked up from his tuberculosis that it cracks into a high-pitched squeak on the word "Micah" and continues squeaking the rest of the words before returning to a normal strain with "...it turns out I've won." Might be unintentional on the part of voice actor Roger Clark, but it counts as Fridge Brilliance in-universe when you discover that when Micah beats up Arthur to the point of being too weak, the latter's TB is worsening and kinda spreads into his larynx (voice box), developing into laryngeal tuberculosis (which is pretty much a rare form of TB), which in turn can cause hoarseness and breathiness (and sometimes falsetto). | |

Hey Arnold!: The episode "Gerald's Tonsils"note which was made to keep Gerald's voice actor on the show after his voice changed deals with Gerald getting a tonsillectomy shortly before a spring choir concert. His voice becomes deeper and raspier following the operation and his singing voice is awful. After a pep talk from Harvey the Mailman (who went through the same experience when he was Gerald's age) Gerald learns how to properly sing with his new voice. | |

ULTRAKILL: When encountering Gabriel for the second time at the bottom of the Heresy layer, he explodes into a furious rant about how V1 and their kind have utterly destroyed the preceding layers. The speech culminates in Gabriel's voice cracking as he screams about how he'll relish grinding V1 into dust - justifiably, as it's thanks to V1 that Gabriel has less than 24 hours before his divine light fades and kills him for good. | |

Voice actor Jason Ritter recounted to the audience at a Gravity Falls Comic-Con panel about the time he was a teenager and a girl he liked passed by while he was playing touch football. He wanted to impress her by shouting "Blitz!", but instead, his voice cracked horribly. The fact that he's able to replicate "Puberty Squeaks" even now is partly what landed him his role as Dipper. | |
