Donald Trump taking office in January has some people scared, so much so that they run like the wind when they hear that the president-elect is coming — at least they are for a new challenge.
The latest viral craze to hit the internet is the #TrumpisComingChallenge, and it’s the total opposite of its predecessor the #MannequinChallenge which called for its participants to remain absolutely motionless.
For the new challenge, someone yells “Trump is coming!” and everyone scatters and runs for their lives from the premises as if the Donald was really coming.
“Me and my friends are Mexican but we were born here and everyone is scared by what Trump said about sending Mexicans back home and all the other racist things, as well,” Chavez told BBC.
While most of the challenges seem to be taking place at schools where large groups of students are gathered, some players have gotten pretty creative with the challenge. One woman even hurriedly walks down her flight of stairs, gets into her car and drives away.
10 Mannequin Challenges Ranked From Worst to Best (Videos)

10. Hillary Clinton
We'll give Hillary Clinton and her team and A+ for effort. They almost had it. The scene was set, the poses were intricate, the challenge was seconds away from being complete, but then Clinton blinked.
While it may seem petty to dock off points for a mere blink, the entire purpose of the challenge is to hold still like a mannequin -- and mannequins don't blink.

9. Destiny's Child
We couldn't include a list of Mannequin Challenges without finding a way to put Beyoncé on it. Although this one was a little mediocre (sorry beyhive), it was still cute -- and they're clearly experts at holding completely still.

8. Steph and Ayesha Curry
If the Curry's weren't relationship goals before, they sure are now.
This one had a lot of participants, but few things that were very out of the norm. It just looked like a restaurant scene frozen in time. Extra points for getting all the diners to join in on the challenge though.

7. Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian
Blac Chyna didn't let having a baby keep her from participating in the Mannequin Challenge.
Chyna was in the hospital bed appearing to be screaming from giving birth while Rob Kardashian was anxiously at the foot of the bed awaiting his daughter to arrive.
6. BYU Cougars Gymnastics Team
The sheer strength it took to pull this off is unimaginable -- it hurt just watching it. This one wins our Olympic Gold.
Freezing our @WhiteHouse visit in time forever with @FLOTUS!#MannequinChallenge ???????? pic.twitter.com/iX1qaJ8qQQ— Cleveland Cavaliers (@cavs) November 11, 2016
5. Cleveland Cavaliers
The Cavs enjoyed their visit to the White House so much that they wanted to freeze their time there forever -- and we're glad they did.
Although this challenge seemed simple enough, we love it because of LeBron and Michelle's selfie moment. So precious.
4. Simone Shepherd and King Keraun
Comedians and YouTube personalities Simone Shepherd and King Keraun took a creative twist on the Mannequin Challenge. They reenacted R. Kelly's popular 12 chapter drama, "Trapped in the Closet," and captured multiple scenes into one video.
3. Black in Blue Film
Most mannequin challenges have all been in good fun, but this one took it a step further and turned a viral challenge into a powerful message.
This challenge reenacted the fatal deaths of Sandra Bland, Trayvon Martin, Philando Castile and Alton Sterling, all while playing police scanner audio from the real events in the background.

2. These 4-year-olds absolutely failed the Mannequin Challenge, but they still nailed it.
You can literally see how hard it is for them to not move and they’re trying their best to hold still for the sake of the challenge. Cuteness overload.
1. TheWrap
Everyone, just quit the challenge -- TheWrap wins. Hands down, the best mannequin challenge was done by TheWrap. Their creativity is unmatched, the precision unparalleled, we can't think of anyone who's done it better.
Totally unbiased opinion, of course.
