A corgi skidding through just in time and a bearded runner landing on his knees.
The samples start from an AI-made corgi and an original portrait of an adult, not customers or celebrities. The corgi makes it was cut from a 10-second vertical clip made with Seedance 2.0 Fast on November 3, 2026, which opened with the corgi at the far end of the hallway. Through on his knees comes from another Seedance 2.0 Fast clip from the same day. In neither one does the door touch the runner.
About 9 seconds of each clip were kept for this page, gently reframed, colour graded and speed-adjusted, with the ghibliia.com mark at the top left. Nothing was mirrored. The music is original. Home Hallway and Garden Door are image only: the corgi's photo moved into two places with image-to-image AI, the same thing you can do on Image. No credits were spent on these samples.

The corgi makes it
A red and white corgi races down a sunny hallway toward the camera while a hand swings the white door shut; it squeezes through the gap, skids across the floor and sits up in front of the camera, tongue out.
A bearded guy in a white tee and grey joggers runs down a warm-lit hallway, reaches the door in a panic, ducks through the gap and lands on his knees on the camera side, mouth open, then grinning.
The same corgi at full speed down a sunny wooden hallway, ears back, with the white door half open behind it.

Garden Door
The same corgi mid-leap through the gap of a wooden garden gate among flowers at golden hour; the gate doesn't touch it.

Upload the runner, pick Home Hallway or Garden Door, press Generate video.

The photo
The runner from head to knees or full body, facing the camera, sharp and well lit. They start small at the far end of the hallway, so a clear face matters. For a dog or cat, show the whole animal.
One adult or one pet in the photo
You, a partner or friend who agreed, or your own pet
Never a child, a stranger or a celebrity

Pick a scene
Above the photo box, choose Home Hallway, the white-door hallway from the trend, or Garden Door, a wooden gate among flowers at dusk. In both, the door closes behind the runner and touches nobody.

Countdown, sprint, the door swings, the runner slips through.
In the trend, whoever holds the door counts "1, 2, 3, go!". Here's The corgi makes it sample, about 9.5 seconds long:
01
The countdown
0–1 s: a hand holds the edge of the white door and the corgi appears at the far end of the hallway, by the window.
02
The sprint
1–5.5 s: the corgi runs at the camera across the wooden floor, getting bigger, while the door starts to swing.
03
The gap
5.5–7 s: with the door nearly shut, the corgi pokes its head through, squeezes past and skids along the floor. 7.5–9.5 s: it sits up in front of the camera, tongue out. The door never touches it.
A home clip around October 25, 2026 passed a million views; a family version hit 7.1 million on October 28.

Couples and pets
By November 2 #fakeclosingdoorprank held 816 videos and 1.4 million views. Couples were pulling it on boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands and wives, CapCut tutorials explained the "fake closing door" edit (one had 45,600 views) and AI video sites offered a one-photo version. A dog is the easy win: the same joke with no real door slam.
Nobody gets hit in the clip; if you film it, use a light door, leave a gap and keep kids out.
No slams
In the clip the door never touches the runner: they get through the gap and the joke is the panicked face. If you film it at home, use a light door, always leave a gap, close it slowly and leave out kids and nervous pets.
The sound
The clip comes with original music. In TikTok or Reels you can add a trending sound or your own countdown; for a beat of your own, make one on Music. More ideas in all video effects.
