Sam, 63, starts off the video by saying, “We need a doctor on standby!
“Danny and Whitney call that move Operation Archer. Since Ginger and I have both competed on Dancing with the Stars, we are going to try this trend.
“We have tried this a couple of times, but not successfully. Are you ready?”
A caption then read “30 minutes earlier…” and showed their practice, as Ginger, 43, and Sam could be seen failing at the trend three times.
In their first on-camera attempt, Sam successfully lifted Ginger up before she lost her balance and fell over.
Michael, 52, joked, “Michael is not doing that!”
Sam and Ginger tried again, but the weatherman instead dragged her across the floor.
Michael then went over to help Ginger up off the floor.
When Ginger said, “We need a week,” Michael jumped on the floor and said, “Alright forget it, Sam let’s go!”
The hosts were hysterical in laughter as Michael lay on the floor with his legs in the air.
The Instagram video was captioned, “They were SO CLOSE!!! You guys will get it next time don’t worry.”
Ginger commented on the video, “We need a few more attempts and I swear we can get it.”
Viewers were hysterical over the moment, as one commented on Instagram with laughing emojis, “I’m SCREAMING!!!”
A second wrote, “Just drag her across the floor! Too funny.”
A third fan said, “This was beyond hilarious!!!!! I need this!!!”
A fourth joked, “At least the floor is now all clean!! Great effort!!”
DWTS HISTORY

TIKTOK TREND
Whitney and Danny took to TikTok earlier this week to tell fans that they have been “loving” all the videos of fans trying out the trend.
The two then gave a tutorial, as Danny provided the advice of staying balanced, while Whitney told the female dancer to keep the bottom leg straight.
They then seamlessly pulled off the difficult dance move.
