The crazy new viral dance risking people's lives

People are jumping out of their cars to film themselves dancing in the middle of the road in a bizarre new viral dance.

The whole thing was born when Instagram star Shiggy posted a video of himself dancing to Drake’s ‘In My Feelings’ outside his car, alongside the hashtag #DoTheShiggy.

Within days the social media star has spawned a new dance craze, with people all over the world hopping out of their cars to take part in the ‘Shiggy Challenge’.

Now, Instagram and Twitter are awash with men and women filming themselves on the road as they dangerously put their car into neutral and dance alongside it.

In the video above, a woman can even be seen up on to the bonnet of her car, while others are shown falling on the road while their car goes off without them.

Some are even getting injured from attempting to follow the bizarre trend.

However, the dance isn’t just for normal fans, as celebrities like Ciara, Diplo and Will Smith have also posted their own version of the ‘Shiggy Challenge’ to their Instagram pages.

The National Transportation Safety Board has urged people to stay away from the challenge.

“We have some thoughts about the #InMyFeelings challenge. #Distraction in any mode is dangerous & can be deadly. Whether you are a #driver, #pilot, or #operator, focus on safely operating your vehicle,” they tweeted.

Police in Spain and Abu Dhabi have also issued warnings about the dance craze, asking people to be careful on the road.

It hasn’t stopped Shiggy’s video from receiving over 6.3 million views so far and Drake’s ‘In My Feelings’ soaring straight to the top of the charts in numerous countries worldwide.
