First there was dabbing, then there was flossing. Now, a new viral dance trend has arrived: the Triangle Challenge.
The geometrically inspired, three-person move sounds easy enough on paper: Stand in a triangle with your arms locked on each other's shoulders, then take turns jumping into the middle. However, it's not quite as simple as it looks.
The dance, which originated on the TikTok app, recently made its way to Russian social media. Users have been happy to partake with their own attempts.
Check out a few of our favorites:
Three Nordstar flight attendants advise you not to attempt the dance until the seatbelt signs have been turned off.
There is a medical precision to this variation of the Triangle.
On the street, at work, in your kitchen: Everyone's doing it everywhere (with varying degrees of success.)
What radio DJs get up to while the music is on.
The dance is known to occur quite spontaneously.
We're not saying we've tried, but it's harder than it looks.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
