There are probably a thousand posts of various adults, babies, and pets supposedly doing this “challenge”. Most of them are funny and often expressive and nicely done as a fad dance, but it does get sublime when people play the music and show their “dancing” pets or toddlers nextvto a moving car.

That there’s a moving car with an open door and someone doing the dance right next to the car makes it senseless and perhaps dangerous. Backlash doesn’t surprise me, but soon enough the fad will expire as all of these things do.

Even if you don’t view on Instagram, this KiKi thing is all over the internet and pop shows like Entertainment Tonight, so I’m surprised anyone has escaped awareness. Consider yourself lucky. It’s about as exciting as the Macarena was back then.

@cherry: The Kiki Challenge craze has pretty much come and gone.

My 12 year old niece did the dance in the kitchen for us and even she knows at 12 not to jump out of a moving car.

As my brother-in-law is fond of saying when someone gets hurt doing something incredibly stupid, natural selection in progress.

I have not heard of the challenge, however, seeing the clip, when did we as a society become bored or just stupid?

However, that man had no business putting his hands on that kid. If that was real, that looked like it hurt.

I hate to admit it but I watched that several times and laughed each time. He actually did what I would never have the guts to do!

Definitely consider yourself lucky to miss this dopey thing until now. I don’t watch that sort of tv program, I don’t view Instagram, and I don’t have teenagers anywhere around me. But if someone shares a link to YouTube or one like you supplied, I get to view it and become aware of Kiki challenge and other trending silliness. Then I get to hear where else it’s seen.

I don't find the video funny at all. That man assaulted the kid doing the "challenge". What have we devolved into when we think assault is funny and assault victims are mocked? Sickening and base, in my opinion.

I'll tell you something @bathina I had a kid driving down my street, standing up and steering his car with his feet. If I could have gotten my hands on that kid, I would have smacked him too. He could have killed one of the neighbor children with his stupidy

I realize that it's wrong but I still laughed. The dumb a** kid would have felt a lot worse if he'd landed under the car from doing something so stupid.

Yes, thats been out a while and I can do the whole beginning but when it comes to that shaking it all part, I cant anymore b.c of my bad back. But I gave my grandkids a laugh showing them but I have to watch when I do stuff, they film me with their camera phone and I dont want to end up on You Tube.. lol, Ps you should see Hugh Jackmans, he did it under water. Its cool. And PS I love Drake (he made the song!)
