QWOP is a ragdoll-based Flash game by Benzido, created in 2008. Players play as an athlete named Qwop who is participating in a 100 meter sprint event at the Olympic Games. Using only the Q, W, O and P keys, players must control the movement of the legs to make the character move forward.[3] When the player has successfully reached 50 meters they must jump a hurdle, and at 100 meters the player is encouraged to perform a long jump, although simply passing the finish line is sufficient to complete the game.
In early December 2010 the game had a viral popularity outbreak after video blogger Ray William Johnson reviewed[4] a YouTube video[5] that annotates the game, which has since become the subject of its own internet meme.[6][7][8] The game is notorious for being difficult to master.[9]
