Have you tried extreme phone pinching?
WHAT IT IS
People holding their mobile phones with only their thumb and forefinger over precarious locations, taking pictures or videos of themselves doing this, and posting them online.
HOW IT STARTED
The trend was supposedly started by American band Twenty One Pilots in July when the band’s members Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun posted a video of themselves dangling their phones over balconies, in the space between elevator doors, and over drains.

Their fans started doing it to impress them and then the trend just took over the internet.
HOW IT’S DONE
All you need to do is ‘pinch’ your mobile phone — hold it between your forefinger and thumb — and dangle it over anything that you wouldn’t actually want it to fall into, like a drain or a toilet bowl. If you’re on holiday, you could even do it near a cliff or a waterfall.
FYI: Phone-pinching fails are also considered share-worthy!
