LONDON -- It's time to give up and go home, everyone.

The Mannequin Challenge can now be declared officially over; Adele is hands down the winner.

On Monday evening, the British singer shared her version of the social media challenge.

Surely, this is what the Mannequin Challenge was made for: the sepia tones, the twanging music, the cowboy hats -- all the winning ingredients are there.

Our personal highlight? The guy brandishing the chair above his head.

BONUS: The 22 push-up challenge
