Feeling stressed? On social media, a new video meme trend has emerged to distract from the final day of the presidential election.
"The Mannequin Challenge" is simple: Take a video of yourself, or you and your friends (or your product), frozen in place—the more ridiculous and difficult the position the better. Some say it's a literal interpretation of chilling out.
The fad is believed to have begun with high school students at the Edward H. White High School in Jacksonville, Florida. But, similar to the Ice Bucket Challenge, Planking or the Harlem Shake, the fervor has spread around the world, with the help of the hashtag #MannequinChallenge.
Now brands, from the Clinton campaign to the Pittsburgh Steelers, have uploaded their own elaborate videos. Even a few ad agencies are getting in on the fun.
