Uh oh, there’s a new trend on TikTok, and this one’s sad.
The white rabbit TikTok trend is all about your life turning upside down. Think: footage of a ballet dancer followed by them experiencing a horrible accident, or footage of a wedding followed by footage of a divorce, or footage of my cat following a laser pointer across the wall followed by footage of a dead battery.

The videos are usually set to the tune of a clock ticking and some soft piano coming in later. Nearly 180,000 videos have been made using the audio, some with text over the first clip that says, “the day before the rabbit got me,” or “48 hours before that stupid rabbit got me,” or simply, “that damn white rabbit.” Sometimes it’s followed by the aftermath; often, it isn’t.
It’s a reference to the white rabbit in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, whose trickery and general vibe turn everything upside down.
