People will do anything for Jimmy Fallon.

Even if that includes rolling across a dirty supermarket floor or in a washing machine? You bet.

Folks have really committed to the #TumbleweedChallenge, a strange new activity Fallon devised for the mighty popular video platform TikTok, which is usually full of people singing pop songs.

In a matter of days, Fallon managed to receive 8,000 videos of people rolling around on the floor, through parks, and down aisles for the challenge, because hey, it's fun to be on TV, right?
