In my lifetime, I've only taken one video of my mom. We were on a Disney cruise and my mom got tipsy. I took a video of her, after three drinks, saying she was "wasted." And of course I posted the video on my Facebook page. It's a fun moment I'll never forget! An excellent mom and daughter memory, since I'm usually the one that has too many drinks. LOL! That's why I love this story so much!

A video of a daughter locking her mom out of the car and making her dance to be let in went viral. TikTok user Herri Hyland (@kerri_okie), who has 1.5 million followers, has gone viral multiple times for clips featuring her mother. One of her most viral was a July 27 video. In it, Hyland locks her mother out of a car, telling her that she needs to dance in order for Hyland to open the door.

"Kerri, it is 100 degrees and I am on Main Street," Hyland's mother says. "Open the door." "Dance," Hyland says. The mom then does a little dance and her daughter tells her it's not good enough. So the mom dances again.

The video spread far past TikTok. An "Inside Edition" spokesperson confirmed that a story about it aired during the program on Tuesday. Clips of the story have appeared on TikTok, and Hyland broke the news to her mom about it in a video posted on Tuesday.

I'm not sure which is funnier: the mom dance video or the mom finding out she was on T.V. video. Since I couldn't decide, I'm gonna post both for you. I'll tell ya, this account may make me finally join TikTok. Hilarity at its finest! I'd love to hang out with these two. Seriously, these two are the best!

First, the dance video:

AND the T.V. reaction video:
