Is this a new trend or just a new way of describing something that has always existed?
I remember when I was a teen we used to do stuff like this. When with friends we'd often do weird things in public just to see how people would react.
Also when I was in school there was a TV show here in the UK called Balls of Steel which did the similar things to "NPCs" that these kids are doing today on TikTok, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5A_X1gwnR7k
