As preoccupied as they may appear, celebrities sure love to take part in viral internet challenges.
Following the “In My Feelings” Challenge that basically defined the summer of 2018, a new athletically demanding one is gradually starting to spread: the Bottle Cap Challenge. Not to be confused with the Water Bottle Flip Challenge, this challenge has participants striving to somehow carefully unscrew a bottle cap with their foot in the middle of a back-turning kick.

As far as we can tell, taekwondo instructor Farabi Davletchin seems to be the person who kicked off (no pun intended) the challenge on June 25. Several martial artists followed suit, including Max Holloway, who tagged John Mayer who’s not a known martial artist. Surprisingly, Mayer nailed the challenge, leaving other stars like Shawn Mendes, Questlove, and David Spade astonished.

“I actually can’t believe this wow,” Mendes commented. Mayer then challenged Jason Statham, who then challenged Guy Ritchie, and the rest is social-media history in the making. Enjoy mesmerizing and oddly satisfying videos of the challenge ahead.
As the Bottle Cap Challenge continues to dominate social media, it was only a matter of time before participants started modifying the challenge.

Last week, Love Island star Wes Nelson flicked the cap off using a playing card, although everyone was distracted by his obnoxious bulge. Then, adult star Chris Diamond opted to use his shaft to swipe the cap right off a bottle of water. That’s right he swapped out a back-turning kick for a back-turning d**k.
