“Rumble yourself with something found in your house until you pass out”, was encouraged on Tiktok a couple of years ago. It was so called blackout i.e. the loss of consciousness challenge.
In addition to fainting, the challenge was to describe the euphoria allegedly associated with regaining consciousness. However, at least twenty children are suspected to have lost their lives due to the challenge. Most of them were under 13 years old.
