Dog Elevator Prank AI: Your Dog Kicks You Into the Elevator

Open this page, upload a full-body photo of your pet or character and one of you, and press Generate. You get a 15-second vertical video with sound of your pet pressing the elevator button, kicking you in and throwing your shoes after you; ours was ready in about 5.5 minutes.

The Dog Elevator Prank AI trend is a pet prank meme in which a dog standing upright walks a man to a hotel elevator, presses the button, kicks him inside and throws his shoes in after him. The best-known version stars a husky and a man in a green suit; the first account that posted it is unknown.

0–2s, the pet taps the man on the back in front of the elevator; 2–5s, he presses the call button and waits; 5–7s, the pet reaches past him and presses it too; 8–10s, he bends over and takes off his shoes; 10–11s, the doors open and the pet kicks him in, so he lands sitting on the floor; 12–13s, the pet picks up the shoes and throws them in; 14–15s, it glances at the camera and walks out of frame.

It's also called the dog lift prank and "dog kicks owner into elevator". Lift is the British word for elevator, and the second name is how people describe the clip in captions and on AI template pages.

The dog elevator prank video is AI-generated, as far as anyone can tell: no real husky stands on two legs, presses buttons and kicks a grown man for 15 seconds. That's also why remakes with your own pet are possible.

No. Slot 1 takes a dog, a cat or a cartoon character. In our test a yellow cartoon bull character stood upright, pressed the button and did the kick; it kept its horns, colour and white hooves in every frame.

Yes, as long as your friend agrees to appear. Put a full-body photo of them in slot 2; their face, hair and outfit carry into the video, and their shoes are the ones that get thrown.

Usually it's a face-only crop or two subjects in one photo. Use a full-body photo with one subject each, then run this template again.

Not completely. New accounts get 75 free credits, and one Dog Elevator Prank AI video takes 300. The $5.99 trial pack (540 credits) covers one video at about $3.33, leaving 240 credits in your account. The exact cost shows on the Generate button, and failed renders are refunded automatically.

About $3.33 for one video with the trial pack, or about $3.00 on the Lite plan. That is 300 credits for a 15-second, 480p vertical clip with sound; ours rendered in about 5.5 minutes.

Four reasons: both characters look like your photos, it costs less, you get a clean video, and it's ready to post.

Looks like your photos: each photo plays its own role, so the pet keeps its coat and the person keeps their face and outfit, with no mixed-up clothes. We ran this setup until it worked, so you can get it on the first try instead of spending credits on retries.

Costs less: about $3.33 per video with a one-time trial pack and no subscription, far below the 3,596 credits one dedicated dog elevator prank site lists for a 720p run.

Clean video: no watermark on any plan, free credits included, and if a render fails your credits come back automatically.

Ready to post: 15 seconds, vertical 9:16 with sound, so it goes straight to TikTok, Reels or Shorts with no editing or dubbing.

Post the video as it is with the sound. A caption like "he pressed the button for me, I should have known" works; mention it's AI and add #dogprank and #dogsoftiktok.

No. It's a fan-made template, not affiliated with the creators of the first clip. Only upload yourself, your own pets, or people who agreed to appear.

Your photos and videos stay in your account, so you can download them again from My Videos at any time. They are never used to train AI models and are not sold or shared, except with the video model provider that renders your clip.
