No idea. Maybe some FX that they found on some hard drive at the end?
Or maybe Found Sounds is the name of a sound designer.

Its sounds that somebody "found" to be useful without actual intention to use that sound. Noises and FX would be sounds where somebody intended to use that kind of noise/fx and recorded/sampled it. Found sounds are "happy accidents" that worked out.

This term is coming up more and more lately, also for example in "found gameplay" where people make up their own ways and aims inside a game just because they "found" it to be fun.

Found sounds is when you go around with a portable recorder and find sounds to record.
