We cannot stop looking at videos of the viral #MannequinChallenge
Okay, we’re going to warn you ahead of time because the #MannequinChallenge hashtag is super addictive. And, unless you have the extra hours to spare, you might want to a blind eye to the black hole of viral videos altogether.
On the other hand, it’s pretty much in our job descriptions to become engulfed in internet fads, because…research, duh!
We’ve spent a ton of time searching the web for the perfect viral videos to share. And we found out that everyone from athletes to musicians has pulled together some really cool #mannequinchallenge videos. They all look so real!
ICYMI, the #MannequinChallenge involves people freezing in place so they look like mannequins.
Also, some #MannequinChallenge videos have music playing in the background. Usually, the song is “Black Beatles” by Rae Sremmund featuring Gucci Mane. Of course, the trend was started by teens. This video was one of the first posted:
