Everyone knows Fortnite. It’s a widely loved video game anyway, so knowing one or two dance emotes from it is not a strange idea to begin with.

But why would even a pregnant mother dance to it? 😭

This trend proves that a punchline can be created from almost everything, even from the settings alone.

The unexpected setting makes the funny dance even funnier.

The choreography barely changes, so the dance routine kinda became the template.

With this template, creators don't need to reinvent the choreography. They just need to make the setting feel unexpected enough that viewers want to see how the familiar move translates there.
