Here’s The Theory Behind Why Men Can’t Do The Viral Chair Challenge

Avatar

The latest in viral phenomena has hit with a TikTok challenge that has spread out to the rest of social media, and it is ‘The Chair Challenge.” Everyone’s been trying the challenge, which ultimately shows how men aren’t able to pick up a chair from a 90-degree angle and stand up.

There are a couple of theories on this, but first, let’s check out some of the attempts…

American singer Jason Derulo tried the challenge just a few days back

The steps to the chair challenge?

  • The challenge needs a male and female, a wall and chair
  • Stand by a wall, place one foot against the wall with the other foot behind it, counting three steps backwards until you can bring both feet together.
  • Place your head against the wall, pull the chair up to your chest and stand up

Sounds simple enough, yeah?

Theories say this is nearly impossible for most men because women have a lower center of gravity
