333 Bread Slideshow / Extremely Long TikTok Slideshows Glitch

About

Extremely Long TikTok Slideshows Glitch and the 333 Bread Slideshow refers to a TikTok glitch that allowed users to post extremely long photo slideshows, most notably the 333 Bread Slideshow that consisted of 333 pictures of bread uploaded by TikToker @orbuz_bs in February 2024. At the time of its upload, the 333 Bread Slideshow was the longest slideshow ever posted to TikTok. It was said to crash the TikTok app for users trying to scroll to the end of it. However, some alleged that they reached the end of the slideshow where the last slide was the end of the loaf with an anime girl's face on it. The 333 Bread Slideshow followed in the footsteps of a Car Slideshow that had 183 slides. Then, the 333 Bread Slideshow was usurped by the so-called "Longest Watermelon Slideshow" and others like it that used more than 333 photos. The trend gained mass discourse and interest in early 2024, as many wondered what the maximum slideshow length was.
