An Iowa teen has suffered a fractured skull and bleeding in her brain after falling and hitting her head while doing the viral ‘Kiki Challenge’.

Anna Worden, 18, was driving with friends in a car last Monday in the town of Bettendorf when she decided to try the latest online dance fad.

‘We were over by the round-about, and I thought it would be a fun idea to do the Kiki Challenge,’ Worden told WQAD-TV last week.

The ‘Kiki Challenge’ is taken up by social media users who jump out of moving cars and do a dance to the Drake song In My Feelings.

Worden, who has been dancing since she was three years old, wanted to give it a try. ‘I tried, and the last thing I remember was opening the door,’ she said. ‘So apparently I got out and tripped and fell and hit my head.’

The challenge is fast becoming one of the biggest social media trends of 2018.

It was started by Instagram comedian Shiggy who shared a video on his show 'The Shiggy Show', dancing by a car on the road to Drake's hit song.

Since then the internet has been inundated with people dancing to the song next to moving cars, a craze which has led the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) in the U.S. to warn about the dangers of the challenge.

‘I tried, and the last thing I remember was opening the door,’ she said.

Doctors later told Worden that she had lost consciousness and was airlifted to a hospital in Iowa City.

The impact of the fall resulted in a skull fracture, blood clots in her ear, and bleeding in the brain.

Worden was recovering on Tuesday at the intensive care unit at the University of Iowa Hospitals.

As part of her physical therapy, Worden is learning to walk again.

‘When we got here and I finally gained consciousness in the ICU, that's when it hit me like wow, I'm actually in the University of Iowa hospitals because I tried to do some little challenge everyone's doing now, and I'm the one that got majorly hurt,’ she said.

She will continue outpatient therapy after she is discharged.

Worden says it is recommended to avoid dangerous fads and viral dances.

‘Be more careful about the challenges and fads that are going around,’ she said when asked what advice she would give to others.

'It may seem fun, and it may seem easy, but at the same too, they could be so dangerous.'
