About
Gummy Bear Challenge refers to a trend popular on TikTok in which a person positions a gummy bear as though it were singing a song on a stage while music, usually Adele's "Someone Like You," plays in the background. The camera then pans to a sea of gummy bears positioned like a crowd who then appear to join in singing the song of the lead gummy bear.
Origin
In late 2018, TikTok user David Kasprak tweeted a video making it appear as though a sea of gummy bears was singing along to Adele's "Someone Like You." The video was tweeted by @gummybearcrowd on December 31st, 2018.[1]
