The Egyptian Trend skyrocketed to internet fame primarily through the viral Ankha Zone animation and the catchy song Camel by Camel by Sandy Marton. While it originated within the Animal Crossing community, it quickly transcended its niche to become a massive TikTok and social media phenomenon characterized by stylized Egyptian aesthetics and a hypnotic, rhythmic movement. The meme typically features characters or users performing a specific dance that mimics ancient hieroglyphic poses or shifts the vibe of a video to a desert theme. It is frequently used to represent being 'hypnotized' by a melody or to jokingly reference the unexpected global popularity of the original NSFW-adjacent animation that sparked the trend.
