What is the Pray For Me Slow-Mo Run AI trend?
The Pray For Me slow-mo run is a friend-group TikTok trend of October 2026: friends charge into frame one at a time in over-the-top slow motion, strained faces and clawing hands, to the "pray for me slo mo" sound, a slowed cut of The Weeknd and Kendrick Lamar's "Pray For Me". The version this page recasts is @kemanirae_'s "PT 2", posted on 15 Oct 2026: six friends run down a breeze-block corridor past a phone fixed low against the wall, the first comes back to stare into the lens, and the last walks in hooded in a long puffer, drops the hood and gets mobbed in a group hug. By 1 Nov it had 12.9M plays and 2.4M likes.

How to make the Pray For Me slow-mo AI video: 1. Pick "Just you" to be the first runner in the black hoodie, "You and a friend" to add the hooded one in the long grey puffer, "You and 2 friends" to add the runner in the leopard-print fleece who gives the hug, or "You and 3 friends" to add the runner in the cream quarter-zip who turns to the lens. 2. Add one clear, front-facing photo per person. 3. Check the free preview still. 4. Pick an outfit: "The trend's outfit" (the default) keeps the runners' clothes with your face and hair, or "Your outfit" puts you in your own clothes from the photo. 5. Press Make my video. The video is 120 credits ($8.39), charged only when it's delivered, and emailed in about 10–20 minutes. Anyone you don't cast stays as filmed. There's no prompt to write, no app to install and nobody has to film anything: it works in a phone browser. ChatGPT can't make this video itself; here you can.
Your video is the whole 26.6-second take, start to finish: the first runner's slow-motion charge with hands clawing in from the side, then the leopard-fleece runner, the cream quarter-zip runner turning to the lens, two more runners, the first runner stepping back in to look straight into the camera, a row of hands clawing at the edge, the hooded walk-in and the hood drop, and the hug with everyone piling in, arms up. It keeps the corridor, the low fixed camera, the timing of every move and the post's own sound. It's vertical, 9:16, ready for TikTok, Reels or Shorts.
About the sound: your video keeps the clip's own audio, the "pray for me slo mo" sound as heard in @kemanirae_'s post, so it arrives sounding like the trend. If you'd rather post it over a different sound, add it in TikTok when you upload: pick the sound there and turn the clip's own audio down.
The sound isn't new. @lesgetitrell made "pray for me slo mo" for a solo slow-motion routine posted on 30 Aug 2020, which has 14.6M plays, and posted a new take in a room on 10 Oct 2026 (3.3M by 29 Oct). Within days the friend-group run took over: @nadineeang's night run on 14 Oct (7.9M) credits him for the dance, @kemanirae_'s corridor run followed on 15 Oct, and @christybacon19 posted a brainrot-character version on 20 Oct (3.4M by 29 Oct). MakeViral had an AI template up by 25 Oct, and on 26 Oct Postdom put it in the week's TikTok trends, with the sound in 41.8K videos and #prayforme on 309,379.
The joke is commitment. Everybody plays it like the hero shot in an action film, dead serious and painfully slow, in the least heroic place possible: a corridor, a car park, a kitchen. That's why it works with any group: your flatmates, your team before a match, your office on a Friday, or just you, opening the run and coming back to stare down the camera.
More group trends you can make from photos: Puerto Rican Mami Dance puts you and a friend under a canopy at night swapping sides, Car Head Bob gets up to three of you bobbing in a car at night, Gas Station Dance has you and two friends dancing at the pumps, and Grease Dance casts you two in the crawl-and-strut routine.
The song and the original
"Pray for Me" is a 2018 song by The Weeknd and Kendrick Lamar, produced by Doc McKinney and Frank Dukes, and the third and final single from Black Panther: The Album, released as a single on 2 Feb 2018. It reached No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and is certified 2x Platinum in the US. In the film it plays as the characters enter a secret casino in Busan. The trend uses "pray for me slo mo", @lesgetitrell's slowed cut, which drags the song into the heavy, dramatic pace the slow-motion runs move to. Your video keeps the clip's own sound, as heard in @kemanirae_'s post; to use another sound, add it in TikTok. We don't reprint lyrics.

Photo tips for Pray For Me Slow-Mo Run
- One person per photo, front-facing, in good light: the runners pass side-on and close to the lens, so a sharp photo of your face from the front pays off.
- Take off your own hat and sunglasses. With "The trend's outfit" you get the runners' clothes; your own glasses stay if you wear them in the photo.
- Your face keeps the expression in your photo, so pick one you like: the runners pull big, strained slow-motion faces, and a wide-open or serious photo suits it.
- With friends: photo 1 is you, the first runner in the black hoodie. In "You and a friend" photo 2 is the hooded one at the end; with 2 friends the leopard-fleece runner comes in, and with 3 friends the runner in the cream quarter-zip.
