This makes me wonder: what exactly happened to the Coffin Dance meme, was it assimilated by some brand so to fell in disuse? Did the Coffin Dance guys danced with the Coffin Dance meme's coffin?

Same thing that happened to the Harlem shake

Not sure those are one-to-one. I remember just about every local news station doing the Harlem Shake, but as far as I can tell not one has reenacted the coffin dance (but I'd love to be proven wrong).

It became a Fortnite emote at one point. Or maybe it was PUBG. I forget. But shortly afterwards that was the end of that.

Wasn't Mr Peanut killed for that and was a huge thing? https://media.tenor.com/RK_kAumki6YAAAAC/dance-coffin.gif
