Belly button challenge

THE internet’s latest obsession is pretty simple — try and touch your belly button by reaching behind your back and around your waist.

The belly button challenge originated in China and is trending on “jQuery111209229973991807079=”152″>Weibo” — the Chinese version to Twitter, where thousands of people are posting photos of themselves.

A hashtag which translates to “reach your belly button from behind to show you have a good figure” has been accompanying the photos.

And while this craze won’t kill or hurt you it might make you feel bad about yourself if you can’t do it.

But don’t worry — if you can’t accomplish the pose, it’s not because you’re not thin enough.

Your ability to achieve the belly button challenge is actually related to your flexibility and arm length.

And a male, more curvaceous blogger, proved just that when his photo did the rounds online.

He had more than 2600 likes for his effort.
