Pedal Pumping Animations / Art

Pedal Pumping is a term used to describe (usually) a female operating the pedals of various modes of transportation. It is currently one of the more well-known fetish memes. Animations and art of said fetish started showing up in the late '00s onwards.

Origin

The earliest known instance of this is in the form of a video called Her bad day by animator Cain. The video, originally uploaded in January 2007, features a woman who can't stop her Shelby when another woman pushes her down the road in her GT. The video has received over 4,000 views.

About a few years later, the trend took off when animator MCMXC5 uploaded animations to his channel that are all pedal related with female feet edited into films or just test animations. His first legitimate animation was entitled simply DAZ Studio Animation (no sounds) and had two women in a predicament when their car gets stuck in the middle of the road. His poularity lead him to making more animations until his death in 2016.

Spread

The trend expanded into an ongoing Internet phenomenon. Many animators made their own pedal-related animations with female characters that are either original or from popular culture, a frequent selection being anime characters.

The trend also spread to Deviantart, where many users there have made their own drawings or depictions of this kind of material.
