Women are doing this 'belly button challenge' and it is horrifying
Women are are posting selfies of themselves completing something called the ‘belly button challenge’.


The idea is that you try to touch your naval by swinging your arm around your back.
If you are ‘slim enough’ you should be able to reach your belly button and snap a picture. If you can’t, well, apparently you need to lose weight. lol
 Pic shows: Netizen posted selfie of herself reaching around their back to try and touch their belly button. Tens of thousands of netizens have uploaded pictures of themselves reaching around their backs to try and touch their belly button in the latest internet craze. The trending "selfie" is accompanied by a hashtag that translates as "Reach your belly button from behind to show you have a good figure", and is now the "trending" way to show off a good body amongst Chinese netizens on social media platform Sina Weibo. Both women and men have been posting selfies of themselves reaching their belly buttons with either their left or right hands. However, netizens claiming to be body trainers said the ability to reach oneís belly button from behind is linked more to flexibility, the length of oneís arm, or the size of the waist, rather than fitness. One called Guo Kang, who said he was a gymnast, said: "A lean person with fewer muscles is more likely to complete the challenge." While Xiang Tang, an aerobics instructor said: "Even people with a fuller figure can do it if they are flexible enough." As tens of thousands of successful ñ and unsuccessful ñ photos have appeared on Weibo, there have also trending photos of successful attempts done by men who are at the same time touting their beer belly buttons, proving that fitness is not an issue in the challenge.
