So, what went viral this week?
Just Dance baby
TikTok user: uptjulieb
Likes: 11.6 million
People couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw this adorable toddler perfectly recreating Black Eyed Peas’ ‘Pump It’ on Just Dance. The baby’s face was deadly serious as he followed the steps exactly, and had the millions of viewers obsessing over the dancing prodigy in the comment section.
Horseback riding in Mexico
User: lizzyfromtheblock99
Likes: 2.6 million
It wouldn’t be TikTok if at least half the viral videos weren’t mildly concerning, and users didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when lizzyfromtheblock99 uploaded a video showing her atop a horse in Mexico, explaining that she has no recollection of how she got there.
She’s since uploaded a video explaining that she just uploaded it for her friends to laugh at, and that she’s safe and well.
Scaring the neighbourhood kids
User: thick.thighed.chickennug
Likes: 1 million
This TikTok user noticed there were some kids lurking outside on the street by her house, and in the spirit of chaos decided to give them a fright. However, not many people expected quite the gusto with which she made a sheep noise in their direction. As she moves to get a better view, the kids roller-skate at lightning speed into the distance.
Evil stare baby
User: briallyse
Likes: 6.4 million
Babies seem to be an unending source of TikTok content, and this child went viral for a video of them turning slowly towards the camera with an intense stare.
Briallyse uploaded the video with a variety of sounds over the top, but the ‘Muffins in the Freezer’ remix version by far went the most viral.

Affectionate bird
User: monictr
Likes: 2.6 million
This video is equally as wholesome as it is bizarre, showing a huge bird fly up to a man on a boat, before they enjoy a very drawn out hug. It’s not clear if this user is the original source of the video, but their decision to pair it up with the song ‘Just the Two of Us’ was certainly a good one.
