Going viral or trending on the internet is something that attracts a lot of people. Making and giving challenges for fun or to create awareness are acceptable but some of these challenges need to be discontinued ASAP, they can hamper your life.

Here is the list of some weird yet dangerous challenges that are going viral this 2018 and you should completely avoid these.

#kikichallenge

In my feelings challenge or as you may already know #Kikichallenge has taken a toll over social media. Every random person to celebrities is dancing to Drake’s track called ‘In My Feelings’ from his album Scorpion.  It wouldn’t have fallen under weird challenges if this was limited to only dancing but that wouldn’t have created the fun, right? Thrill lies in getting out of your moving car and dancing to the lyrics of the kiki song. Yes, a moving car! And in India, you can hardly find any place for the pedestrians, and here people are going crazy with the kiki challenge. A lot of accidents and jams have been reported till now where people were spotted dancing out on the roads from their moving cars. Don’t you think we need to use our senses before trying to be an internet sensation?

#Zoom Challenge:

This is the latest addition to the viral challenges this year. It is the quirky challenge which involves mostly young kids or youth who are dancing on the screen to the lyrics of Mickey by Lil Yachty in a seating position before being violently pulled out of the screen with their legs being pulled. Yes, you might think it is relatively safe to do, but there are reports which say kids are hitting their heads on to a hard surface thereby resulting in a serious injury.

Eat it or wear it:

Ok now, this is a pretty simple challenge, you and your partner list questions for the other one to answer and have some weird items that whoever answers wrong has to either eat or wear. If they eat it, they can dump the remainder on another player’s head. If they choose to wear it … you can guess what happens. This challenge went viral from the YouTube where You Tubers started filming fun videos and started challenging fellow You Tubers to do so. Though this sounds pretty fun and interesting the complete opposite happened when people started eating pops and drinking weird liquids, not only it is messy but also risky.

Tide pod challenge:

This would probably be the most senseless challenge out there. Social media was flooded with the clips of teenagers and young people eating tide pods. Tide Pods are a line of laundry detergent pod from Procter & Gamble’s Tide brand. What emerged from a few nihilistic memes soon became a reason for worry as children began ingesting detergent in form of capsules. The substances inside these pods are highly poisonous and pose serious health risks if they are ingested.  A tweeter post about eating tide pods in 2018 became a new trend all over the social media and after that, a lot of deaths and serious medical conditions were reported.

I hope this article was a fun read for you and please don’t get carried away with the viral challenges or for that matter news. Everything that is on the internet is not for everyone, right? We need to start ignoring some viral, weird stuff and try concentrating on useful and valuable things in life.

See you soon with another exciting read!

Till then take care!!
