Social media users constantly astound us with their innovative dares.
TikTok users continued to impress this year with their creative videos and entertaining stunts. On January 1st, we’ll highlight some of 2021’s most humorous and a few less successful viral sensations.
Beyond the “dare”
Many online users participated in this trend, embracing the summer hit by J. Balvin and María Becerra. This trend involves dancing to the song in various locations, with any number of participants, requiring only adherence to the choreography.
Express yourself without saying “dare”
TikTok users tested another trend by flooding the platform with videos of a game where participants convey a message non-verbally. A message is chosen, then participants express it creatively.
A Universal Trend
Another song dominating the social network is Raw Alejandro’s “Todo de ti.” Even renowned Spanish streamer Ibai Llanos couldn’t resist its rhythm, demonstrating his dance moves to his followers.
The “Scalp Popping” Trend
This unusual trend involves pulling hair until the scalp stretches. Despite its strangeness, it gained significant popularity, with the hashtag #ScalpPopping reaching 6.6 million uses. Experts, however, warn of potential serious injuries.
Goblincore
This hashtag showcases videos of fans emulating their favorite goblin characters. Key elements include pointed ears, painted skin and hair, elaborate makeup, and eccentric behavior.
The Koala Trend
This trend, as its name suggests, involves remaining motionless atop another person—a surprisingly difficult feat!
The “Back Cracking” Trend
This trend is for couples. One kneels, hands behind their neck, while the other interlocks arms and stretches sharply, causing a cracking sound. Participants claim it can alleviate back pain.
