In My Feelings Is The Latest Summer Challenge But It's Seriously Dangerous

In 2014, our Facebook and Instagram feeds were full of videos of people doing the ‘Ice bucket challenge’, in 2016 it was the ‘mannequin challenge’. This year, the ridiculous new challenge is the ‘In My Feelings Challenge’.

The idea came from an influencer from The Shiggy Show, an Instagram account that has more than 1 million followers. The idea is to put the song In My Feelings by American rapper Drake on in your car whilst driving, getting out of the car and dancing next to the car while it’s still moving. It has gone viral recently from videos uploaded with the hashtag #Inmyfeelings which has been used more than 292,000 times on Instagram.

Viral but dangerous

It may be viral, but it’s not safe. Some celebrities such as actress Shay Mitchell posted their failed videos to warn about the dangers of this new trend. In her video, the car starts to move faster and ends up causing an accident. We know it’s obvious but it has to be said that this trend does break the rules of the road and so you could be fined if caught. In order to have fun and be safe at the same time, the police have suggested filming whilst Drake is playing, but with the motor off.
