What is the Hop Hop Hop trend?

A squash-and-swap duo

A phone stands still in a narrow hallway. One person is close to the lens and points back; the other hops far behind until a flat hand pats the air and squashes them into a crouch. Forced perspective makes the joke.

Second by second

0–4.3 s: person 1 up front waves, points back and pats down while person 2 hops and squats far behind. 4.3 s: a hard cut on the beat. 4.3–8 s: the places swap, ending in a deep squat.

The song behind it

The sound is a sped-up clip of "Её парень" ("Her Boyfriend") by Shluzov, which is why people search for the hop hop hop Russian song.
