The end result is, well, quite something.
Reddit user Crazycriv spent 15 minutes forcing Ellie to nearly drown just so they could get her to make a particularly horrifying face, while a fish is passing through, no less. Out of context, these expressions turn into memes, but the trick is to spot and quickly capture the expression you want as it happens.
