What is the Missed Train Dance meme about, and what else is it called?
Updated:
Short answer
The gag is the whiplash: total despair as the doors shut, then pure joy once the dance starts. The AI take swaps in a friend, a boss or a pet while the platform stays. Searches include missed my train dance, train guy dance, missed train AI and missed train trend.

The point of it
A petty everyday setback becomes a stage show. The slump sells the misery, and the dance after it makes the scene funny rather than sad.
Questions people ask
Is the train real?
In the original clips it was. In the AI versions, ours included, it is generated.
Why does everyone drop to their knees?
That beat belongs to the clip we follow, so each version keeps it.
Who sprints for the train in a video?
The one in your photo, whether you, a friend or a pet. Watching panic become a dance is the entire joke.
