A lag spike is when a game freezes and then unfreezes. Or when the game go to a low FPS count. And this goes for tv's.

Great Lag Spike of Death
This death occurs exclusively in the world of online multiplayer computer games, namely Garrys Mod. This is experienced only on online servers with a lot of addons, players, and ping. This causes the entire server to freeze up, and time out many players, and crash the remaining. This is awfully similar with the recent DDoS strikes on other multiplayer games.
I tried to play Teh Build Box on Garrys Mod but we experienced The Great Lag Spike of Death.
