The Egg Challenge: Is It Real or A Prank?

Another week, another viral challenge. This time, it’s the egg challenge. But is it real? Or is it just a prank to get you to be stupid enough to crush a perfectly good egg in your own hand?

The Egg Challenge first went viral back in early 2018, although the challenge involved dogs rather than human beings like ourselves.

The challenge involved placing a raw egg in a dog’s mouth to see if they could hold it there it without cracking it.

The point of the challenge is supposed to prove your dog has a soft, delicate mouth.  According to INSIDER, the Egg Challenge “first started with golden retrievers since the “softly-mouthed” breed was trained to fetch hunting kill.”

However, now over a year later, the challenge has popped back up on all of the various social media platforms.

But how does it work, exactly?

Well, I can’t tell you, as I am not personally about to try it as I both enjoy eggs and hate cleaning. But, if you really find yourself so curious, head over to your kitchen and give one a squeeze for yourself.

Or you can check out this video below (which was first posted on YouTube back in 2013, just goes to show you what goes around comes around) to see how the Egg Challenge trick works.

So, did you try out the Egg Challenge? Did the egg thwart your attempts or did it crack under your mighty will? Why does anyone care about something so stupid, anyway? Let us know below in the comment section.
