hold my beer
Before attempting stupidity
Hold my beer signals someone is about to attempt something reckless, foolish, or impressively stupid—as if handing off a drink before a stunt.
The phrase originated as something actually said before ill-advised physical feats, but now serves as internet shorthand for one-upmanship in bad decisions: Florida Man: "Hold my beer." Often used when someone or something outdoes an already outrageous situation.
