DEEP DIVE

The athletic TikTok Stand Up Challenge is set to the song “Woah” by KRYPTO9095. The lyrics included in the videos go:

Damn yo’ girl so fine, but her breath is like (Woah!)
She said she wanna dance but she don’t know how to (Woah!)
I’m iced out, oouh, lookin’ like a star (Woah!)
Her name is Jenny, oooh, b**ch don’t have no panties (Woah!)
I’m Steph Curry, when I hit the three, I hit the (Woah!)

The first prominent video of the #StandUpChallenge was posted in January by TikToker Demi Bagby of her and Scott Mathison on a sandy beach. In the video, Demi stands on Scott’s back and every time the song goes “Woah,” Scott stands up more until Demi is standing on his shoulders.

In addition to the many successful takes, this challenge has led to many fails. Don’t try this at home unless you’re an experienced gymnast or cheerleader and you take safety precautions, or it may be as dangerous as the Skull Breaker Challenge.
