14 Sora 2 Prompts for Viral Videos
Sora 2 just dropped, and social media went crazy. TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram—they’re all flooded with Sora videos right now. In the US, the Sora app is breaking download records on the App Store.
Getting access isn’t simple though. You need to be in the USA and have an invite code to use sora.chatgpt.com.
I’m not in the US, so I can’t access Sora directly. But I found a workaround—I’m creating these videos using Higgsfield AI instead, and the results are just as good.
I’m using a 9:16 aspect ratio for all these prompts since that’s what works best for social media. Here are 14 prompts that are guaranteed to get attention.
1. Cat Driver Gets Away
Realistic police bodycam footage, first-person perspective, with a timestamp overlay. An officer approaches a silver sedan on a quiet suburban street. The officer looks into the open driver’s window to find a tabby cat sitting upright in the driver’s seat, wearing a red collar and holding the steering wheel. The car then screeches its tires and speeds off. The camera becomes very shaky as the officer starts running after the car.
2. Ostrich Uber with PS5
Handheld phone footage shot from a moving car. A young man is riding a large ostrich through a congested city street. A capybara sits behind him on the ostrich’s back, and together they are holding a brand new PlayStation 5 box.
3. Flying Raccoon
A video from a stationary doorbell camera with a fisheye lens. A raccoon is on the concrete front porch of a suburban house on a very windy, overcast day. A sudden, violent gust of wind lifts the raccoon off its feet and sends it flying through the air and out of the frame.
4. Einstein Enters the Ring

5. Bear Prank Gone Wrong
A wide-angle security camera captures a man napping in a chair on the wooden porch of a cabin. A large black bear quietly climbs onto the porch railing right beside him. The bear leans in close and suddenly snorts loudly, jolting the man awake. The startled man yells, and the equally startled bear jumps off the porch and runs away.
6. Olympic Dishwashing Championship
In the style of a live Olympic sports broadcast, female athletes from different countries are lined up at individual kitchen sinks inside a massive, cheering stadium. They are furiously speed-washing dishes, competing against each other. The scene includes a professional scoreboard with times and country flags.
7. Bird Steals Dog
A video from a stationary doorbell camera with a fisheye lens. A small, fluffy dog is playing on the front lawn of a suburban house. Suddenly, a large bird of prey swoops down, snatches the dog in its talons, and flies away. A woman runs from the porch, screaming and chasing after them.
8. Skydiving Dog
Extreme sports GoPro footage of a dog strapped into a parachute harness, soaring through the sky. Below, the curve of the Earth is visible over a stunning coastline with turquoise water and sandy beaches. The sky is a brilliant, clear blue.
9. Drone Chicken Flight
Handheld phone footage of a hen with a quadcopter drone attached to its back via a harness. The drone’s propellers spin, and it lifts the hen into the air, which then flies smoothly over a green lawn in a backyard.
10. Cat Frames Dog
A static, low-angle shot in a modern kitchen. A frustrated woman stands over a fluffy gray cat and a golden retriever. A destroyed chicken carcass is scattered across the floor. As the woman yells, the cat stands up and repeatedly points its paw at the dog, who sits stoically with a sad, guilty expression.
11. Soap Dispenser Kitten
First-person of a hand is placed under a chrome automatic soap dispenser. It dispenses a blob of white foam that is shaped like a cat. The foam then seamlessly transforms into a tiny, fluffy, real white kitten. The kitten, sitting in the person’s palm, looks up and makes a peace sign with its paw.
12. Highway Zoo
Handheld phone footage shot from a moving car on a busy highway. A large man is riding a comically small minibike. A full-sized cow is sitting behind him like a passenger, and a white goat is perfectly balanced on top of the man’s head and shoulders.
13. Infinite Trampoline Loop
A man carrying a woman piggyback-style jumps from a roof onto a trampoline and bounces perfectly back up to the roof in a seamless loop.
14. Metal Concert Cat
Handheld footage from a live heavy metal concert. A tattooed singer with long hair is screaming aggressively into a microphone under intense blue stage lights. In a surreal contrast, a calm orange tabby cat is perched peacefully on his shoulder, completely unbothered by the noise and headbanging. At the peak of the song, the cat opens its mouth and meows in sync with the singer’s scream.
These prompts work because they’re absurd, funny, and shareable. Copy them exactly as they are, paste them into Sora (or Higgsfield AI if you’re outside the US), and watch the views roll in.
