This Malaysian University Broke The 'Mannequin Challenge' Record
The Mannequin Challenge has been around for quite a while now ever since it became an internet sensation last year with people from all around the world sharing their attempts.
As with anything viral, the hype usually dies down after a short period of time. In fact, we haven’t seen any videos of new challenges lately.
However, one particular university in Malaysia decided to take up the challenge and set a new record in the country.
