Though many users filmed their own Pee Your Pants Challenge videos to get views or attention, Liam explained that he intended for it to poke fun at other TikTok trends. He explained to Insider that he's an aspiring comedian and filmmaker, and that he created it as a joke.

"I am definitely surprised that the challenge actually became a trend," he wrote in an email to the outlet. "I created the challenge as a parody of the other challenges that have gone viral on the internet in an attempt to show how pointless they are. I am surprised to see that people on the internet will pee themselves if you call it a challenge and add a hashtag." 

If Liam's intention really was to parody TikTok challenges, then it may have backfired since he's now known for peeing his pants on camera. 

While the Pee Your Pants Challenge on TikTok is silly, at least it's not as dangerous like the Skullbreaker Challenge or the Outlet Challenge (except to your ego).
