Bottle flipping was a trend that involved throwing a plastic water bottle, typically partially full of liquid, into the air so that it rotates, in an attempt to land it upright on its base or on its cap. It became an international trend as of summer in 2016, with numerous videos of people attempting the activity being posted online. With its popularity, the repetitive thuds of multiple attempts have been criticized as a distraction and a public nuisance. Parents and teachers have expressed frustration at the practice, resulting in water bottle flipping being banned at a number of schools around the world, as well as many people calling for the practice to only be performed on Private Property, if at all.
