- Woo, come here!
No, he's fu--

What are you doing over there?!

♪ (dramatic chord) ♪
-
- (FBE) So today we're
going to be showing you
-
some content of a Snapchat filter
that has recently gone viral.
-
- Is it the hot dog?
-
- The hot dog thing?
It's everywhere.
-
It's on Twitter, Instagram.
-
- Oh, I know what it is.
I know what it is.
-
It's a hot dog, right? Yes!
-
- I love my little hot dog.
- This is the hot dog, right?
-
- Yeah, I've been playing
with him hard.
-
I've certainly danced
with the hot dog
-
more than I've danced
with any woman at a bar ever.

♪ (party music) ♪
-
- I use this one.
-

-
Oh god!
-
- Ugh!
-
- Oh, she's getting
her nosed pierced.
-
- (lady) Yay!
- It's so weird.
-
- I don't get it.
- What's not to get?
-
It's so cute.
-
- I use the filter all the time,
the hot dog guy.
-
- It makes every moment
more delightful
-
because I don't want to watch
someone's nose
-
getting all mushed up
with needles in it.
-
Throw a little dancing
hot dog in there, I'm down.
-
- Aww, so cute.
-
- Oh, this is your jam.
- I'm all about this.
-
- Oh my god.
I haven't seen that one.
-
- I honestly haven't
used it myself,
-
but every time I see
a video with the hot dog on it,
-
I watch the whole thing.
-
I'm like, "Why?
Why is it so entertaining?"
-
And the song's so bad. It's amazing.

- Oh, they're getting so big.

♪ (rap music) ♪
- That's nasty.
-
- That's hilarious.
-
That's comedy gold right there.
-
- Who thought of that?!
-
- Oh, so good.
-
I want to see what people
can do with that thing,
-
where it's like,
they're interacting with it.
-
I wanna see someone
breakdance next to it.
-
- (man) Yeah, that's right--
- Okay, I saw this one.
-
- (man) I'm cookin' yo son!
- (sadly) Oh.
-
- (man) That's what you get
for sneakin' up on me
-
when I'm trying
to take off my nightlight.
-
- This is a dark one.
-
- Oh my god, there's a big one too.
-
- (distorted screaming)
-
- Oh, they did a double hot dog.
-
- Can you double hot dog?
- Yeah.
-
So you can play as two?
-
Or did they edit--
- They edited that.
-
I don't believe it.
-
That's some Snapchat witchcraft.
-
- The hot dog already
looked a little cooked,
-
so it's already went
through the torment enough.
-
- (chuckling)
-
Oh my god.
-
- (cracking up)
-
- (giggling)
-
He just stole the hot dog.
-
It was probably a Costco one.
Those are really good.
-
- That's nuts.
-
- I hate the hot dog.
- Why?
-
- Because when it
first showed up, I was like,
-
"There has to be some
greater meaning to this,"
-
and there isn't.
-
(beeping)
- (bystander) Move!
-
- Oh god! Oh my god!
- (bystander) No!
-
(beeping)
- (bystander) Move!
-
- Nooooooo!
-
- (bystander) Move!
- No! Noooo!
-
(beeping)
- (bystander) Move!
-
- Hot dog guy!
Hot dog guy is dead.
-
(beeping)
- (bystander) Move!
-
Nooooo!
- (laughing)
-
I never once in my life
thought I'd be laughing
-
about a hot dog
getting hit by a train.
-
- Oh my god, this is so weird.
-
I want to [bleep] die.
-
♪ (party music) ♪
-
- Hot dog guy won't flush down.
-
- Woo! Nope, he won't
go down the toilet.
-
- I kind of understand
why it's blowing up, you know?
-
Because it looks really real,
and if it's moving with
-
whatever's happening in the video,
it literally looks like
-
there's a dancing hot dog.
-
- Oh my god, it's a hot dog fight.
-
- (laughing)
- Ah.
-
- (gasping) Not the hot dog guy!
-
(deep voice) Hot dog guy,
I am your father!
-
(giggling)
-
- I wish the hot dog
had split in half.
-
- Yeah, I wish the hot dog
literally did anything.
-
That would be great.
-
- "Just spoke with one
of my biggest inspirations.
-
Bless up."
-
- Is he facetiming?
-
- Man, he's taking
the world by storm.
-
He's got Khaled
giving him shout-outs.
-
- DJ Khaled made a meme of himself.
-
That's the type of confidence
I'd love to have.
-
- I feel like he would be
the type of person
-
to post that though,
considering DJ Khaled
-
is a living meme himself, you know?
-
It's like when two memes collide.
-
- "Imagine the Snapchat investors
asking the CEO what he's got
-
planned to stop the stock
from plummeting
-
and he pulls up this
mother[bleep] on a PowerPoint.
-
Well, it worked.
-
- Yeah, I mean, it's true.
-
I feel like no one
was using Snapchat.
-
Everyone was moving away
to Instagram,
-
and then this thing
came out and everyone
-
is opening up the app again.
-
- There we go. It's viral.
-
I want to know who made this.
-
- I don't know how
they think of their filters.
-
Snapchat, like, they go all out.
-
It's good marketing, for sure.
-
- "Feeling cute, might delete later.
-
I don't know, though."
-
- I saw this on Twitter.
It was funny.
-
- That's so cute. I love that
the hot dog has a life of its own.
-
You do look cute, hot dog.
I would date you.
-
- "Steal his look."
-
- I love the orange spray tan.
-
- I like how you have
to actually put the ketchup
-
and mustard on your body.
-
Do people really dress up
like the dancing hot dog?
-
- This is going to be
the Halloween costume of the year.
-
- This is the easiest last minute
Halloween costume
-
that's ever existed.
-
- This could be, honestly,
DYI hot dog guy Halloween costume.
-
Look out. It's gonna come.
-
- "Stand in the ashes
of a trillion dead souls
-
and ask the ghosts
if honor matters."
-
That's [bleep] up.
-
- (laughing) That's hilarious.
-
- Oh my god, that's so mean!
That is so mean.
-
- I like this one.
-
- Yeah, I know you do.
- Yeah, it's dark.
-
- That's not right.
-
- Wow, this is kind of disrespectful.
-
- (spluttering) To who?
- (laughter)
-
- "Photoshop and body image."
-
Ewww! That looks gross.
-
- That looks disgusting.
-
- The real one really freaks
me out, like, a lot.
-
It's scary.
-
- The feet are really
the worst part to me, I think.
-
- This one's okay because
there are actual jokes happening.
-
And I like unrealistic
beauty standards.
-
- Honestly, you can't trust anybody
for what they look like
-
in their pictures these days.
-
It's nuts.
-
- "You versus the guy
she told you not to worry about."
-
Oh, shit. (laughing)
-
- Oh my-- I like how this
can get 32,000 likes.
-
- (FBE) So these
all came from using
-
Snapchat's new
dancing hot dog filter.
-
So have you yourself used
the Snapchat filter yet
-
and joined the craze?
- No, I deleted Snapchat.
-
- I also deleted Snapchat.
-
Instagram video, I'm lazy.
-
I don't want to change
to another app
-
to do the same thing I could do
within an app I already use.
-
- I feel so behind.
-
I have not used this damn filter.
-
- I haven't actually.
-
I tried to use it once,
but it closed on my app
-
and it made me really upset.
-
- Yes, I love the hot dog guy.
He's amazing.
-
I make him dance on my dog.
-
I make him dance on my boyfriend.
-
I make him dance on my computer
to show that I'm editing.
-
- I did one where it
was kinda like
-
the little girls from The Shining,
where I was in my room
-
alone at night--
- Oh, that was a good one.
-
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
-
- I did one where
I woke up hung over
-
and there was bottle of champagne
and a dancing hot dog in my bed,
-
and I'm like, "Oh no,
what have I done?"
-
- (FBE) So here we have
the continued use
-
of augmented reality and technology,
where you can place
-
something in the real world
on your phone.
-
- Oh, like Pokemon.
-
- The first thing
I said when I saw it
-
was it reminds me of Pokemon Go.
- Yeah.
-
- Yeah, except
without actual Poke Monsters.
-
- (FBE) So as a creator,
what do you think
-
about this technology
and where it may lead
-
in terms of content?
-
- I feel like every time
there's something new
-
with social, which is so cool,
people get so creative,
-
so, I mean, I don't feel
like it's hard.
-
It's just a good opportunity
to just do different things.
-
- I worry that it's
gonna be that you can
-
make a SIM of someone
and then have them do
-
something in a video and then
we'll never be able to know...
-
- What's real.
- ...what was real and what wasn't.
-
- It's gonna be hard to distinguish
what's real and what's fake anymore
-
because I feel like as technology
gets better and better,
-
they are going
to have hologram people,
-
but they don't look like holograms,
you know what I mean,
-
which is kind of scary.
-
- Companies may buy into it
and start creating games,
-
possibly SIMS VR,
augmented reality on your phone
-
and I don't know.
-
It's so weird,
but for Snapchat, it's perfect.
-
- If there was a way
for it to be used
-
on all types of video cameras,
I feel like people
-
could actually make content with it,
-
and if you could somehow
customize it to look like
-
whatever you want, I feel like
there's a whole new genre
-
of videos that no one's made yet.
-
- The interest in things
like tech development
-
and graphic design is gonna
skyrocket for the next generation,
-
which I think is really cool.
-
Our next Kubrick is gonna
be all like, "What if..."
-
- (chuckling)
- "...it's all dancing hot dogs?"
-
- (FBE) Why do you think
that this character in particular
-
became such a trend,
the hot dog guy?
-
- What stands out
about the damn hot dog
-
is that it's freaking funny.
-
It's so weird.
-
- The hot dog looks so stupid
and you can interact with it,
-
so, I mean, I think
it's the recipe there
-
for something to catch on.
-
- It just taps into something,
this inner child that we all have,
-
and you forget
is there a lot of time.
-
You're like, nah, you know what?
-
I know the news is scary,
-
the ice chunk the size
of Delaware just broke off,
-
but who cares?
-
Right now, we've got
dancing hot dog.
-
- I mean, we're starting, though,
at a dancing hot dog.
-
There's tons of other things
also that actually tap into
-
zeitgeisty memeable things.
-
It's kind of limitless now,
what they could do
-
in terms of experimenting
with characters.
-
- (FBE) So finally,
we've got the Snapchat filter
-
on our iPad and we want you
to make a little video
-
using the Snapchat hot dog filter.
- I can finally do it?
-
- Oh, what's up, bitch?
-
Hey! (chuckling) Get it!
Get it! Get it!
-
Yes!
-
- He's twerking with the trash can.
-
This is me.
This is my life.
-
I have nobody to twerk with.
-
- Hey, homie, I heard
you're getting lit, yo.
-
(laughing) 'Ey!
-
(laughing) 'Ey.
-
♪ (party music) ♪
-
Whoaaaaa!
-
- Ooh, he won't bounce with me.
-
Oh, here we go.
-
Whoa, he gets bigger and smaller.
-
Woo, come here!
No, he's fu--
-
what are you doing over there?!
-
Get back here!
-
He ran away from me.
-
This was probably the most fun
I've ever had in my life.
-
(laughing)
-
If I could do this with
many different things, I would.
