In the clip information on YouTube, Little Big appealed to fans to: "Join the #skibidichallenge – just film how you dance the skibidi-dance, put the #skibidichallenge hashtag and post it on your YouTube and Instagram."
The video has sparked a dance craze of thousands attempting to recreate the moves in the video,which includes cross punching arms and stepping with your toes turned out while lifting your knees towards your body.
What's the Little Big video about?
In the Russian rave band's video for Skibidi, band member Ilya Ilich Prusikin is seen dancing in the street as the infectious moves cause three women, a pole dancer, two police officers and a prisoner as well as a mother and baby to start dancing.
As he appears to make his way to Sophia Tayurskaya in the video, she sings: "I'm falling, I’m falling, waiting for you to say I want you, I want you.
"Maybe like horse last hey, I want you, I want you, together like one two, baby come to me, right now.
"Now giving talk to me."
In the chorus, the band repeat: "Skibidi ua-pa-pa, Skibidi boom-boom, ay, Skibidi boom-boom-boom-boom, ay."
The video then sees the pair appearing to lie in a bed together while doing the dance moves before meeting with friends.
The group then appear to enter a Skibidi dance-off with a gang in an alleyway before joining together for the wacky routine.
At the end of the video, they're joined by a dancing dinosaur and high-rise buildings.
