The Philippines has finally caught up with the “In My Feelings” viral dance challenge, and it has taken on a whole new–and dangerous–level.
Facebook user Marc Malazarte posted a video of a woman dancing animatedly right beside a moving car at the parking lot of the Robinsons Galleria mall in Cebu City on Monday night.
Malazarte, seemingly annoyed, wrote in the caption in Filipino: “Oh my gosh millennials..”
You’ll feel Malazarte’s irritation grow as he aggressively honks behind the woman to urge her to stop dancing and to get back in her car.
“Copycat,” he says in Filipino in the video. He told Coconuts Manila that he was looking for a parking space at the time because he and his girlfriend were running late for a movie–which explains why he was in such a hurry.
During the latter part of the video, you can hear Malazarte laughing as the woman goes back in the car, a victory for the motorist.
The video has garnered almost 2 million views as of posting. Netizens were quick to join in on the fun:
Robin Merez Silvestre wrote in Filipino: [This should be done on] an expressway hahaha”
Ariza Anne Brosula tagged a friend and said: “HAHAHA IN MY FEELINGS OHH COPY IT HAHAHHA”
Darilyn Magistrado said there’s nothing wrong if you’re not bothering anyone. “You can do this. To go with the trend, but not to the point that you’re hassling someone,” Magistrado shared.
The origin of the “In My Feelings” challenge came from comedian and online personality Shiggy who was dancing giddily one day to Drake’s “In My Feelings.”
It became an even bigger phenomenon when A-list Hollywood actor Will Smith joined the challenge and performed it on top of the Széchenyi Chain Bridge in Budapest.
In his video, Smith said on camera: “There is no way, no way this is legal.”
But like a true legend, he did it anyway and Vice, the website, claims he won the challenge.

Another famous personality to do the challenge would be dancer Chachi Gonzales who did it on the side of the freeway in Los Angeles, California like a girl boss.

But it’s not all fun and games. It could get pretty ugly sometimes. Just promise us that when you do it, you don’t do this:
