In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Human Mail Challenge” is a common card of the Memes World series 76, number 22530 of the collection, and the 29th best-known meme of its 298 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Human Mail Challenge” meme mean?
Mentioning the Human Mail Challenge points to the kind of silly dare that promises a show. The idea is absurd: climb into a box and hope to arrive in one piece. Viewers tune in for the craziness, the tension of the journey and the recipient’s surprise. The phrase is used to label an over-the-top video idea, to tease online challenge crazes, or to recall an era when YouTubers competed with eccentric stunts. The dare is dangerous and not something to copy.
Where does the “Human Mail Challenge” meme come from?
According to Know Your Meme, the challenge has a participant mail themselves in a box to a recipient, often someone they know, a fan or a stranger. In March 2016, YouTuber OmarGOSHTV posted an early version titled “Mailing Myself In A Box PRANK – Kid Version”. On September 14, 2016, Kill’em FTW uploaded “I Mailed Myself in a Box and It Actually WORKED!”, a video that helped define the format. In November 2016, several popular YouTubers, including RiceGum, Sam and SSSniperWolf, tried their own attempts. On November 30, 2016, the channel Top Trends posted a compilation of the best videos. In December 2016, FaZe Rug and Gloom Games joined in. The challenge remains tied to late 2016 and that era’s wave of dares.
