whisper challenge

Headphones guessing game

A party game where one person wears headphones playing loud music while another whispers a phrase, and the listener tries to read their lips.

The comedy comes from misinterpretations: someone whispers I love pancakes and the guesser announces I shoved Dan's face.

Popular on YouTube and at gatherings.
