The sheer versatility of the audio spawned hundreds of thousands of user videos, ranging from gym progress clips to elaborate special-effects makeup reels.

Instead of relying on store-bought bodysuits, top creators began utilizing black-light reflective fabrics, custom-molded thermos props, and LED-infused contact lenses to simulate the hero's paranormal energy.
