AVOID: A Stupid And Dangerous TikTok Challenge Is Going Viral And People Are Getting Hurt

Avatar

When a video starts going viral on TikTok, avid users of the video-sharing app have a knack of jumping on the bandwagon, regardless of the trend.

But if you’ve heard of the #Skullbreaker Challenge, PLEASEEEEE do not try this at home.

Why do we preach? ‘Cus if done incorrectly, you could seriously hurt yourself.

The challenge involves three people standing side-by-side. The person in the centre jumps and the people on either side kick the middle person’s legs from under them.

The challenge has made headlines with some TikTok users even reporting a participant broke their arm after trying the senseless (read: stupid) challenge

“TikTok was just on the news. A kid just broke his arm, doing the skullbreaker challenge”
