Fire Challenge Gone Wrong! *NSFW

My, you're awfully needy :^D

Just facebook idiots doing stupid facebook tricks. Not much to talk about there.
 
The challenge should be to light your groin on fire so we can remove these idiots from the gene pool.

Modern medicine is keeping the weakest of us alive, so seeing Facebook kill off the dumbest of us with the "fire challenge" is only the cosmos balancing the whole survival of the fittest thing out.

Condolences to the parents. I couldn't imagine burying my child, let alone for doing something this stupid. Nobody deserves that kind of pain and sadness.

I don't think I've ever seen an activity so worthy of a Darwin award. Condolences to the parents, but you raised a really, really, stupid son.
 
Also, I didn't watch the video in the article; I don't need to see that sort of stuff. But, the image clearly shows that he's in a shower. The kid who died wasn't anywhere near a shower. Further, one contributing source to death, and very possible from the location of the fire is due to this thing humans do: breathing. Inhaling very hot air can burn the lungs, reducing their ability to do what they're supposed to do, plus the burns in the lungs cause all sorts of other bad things (fluid to build in the lungs).
 
Didn't look that bad at all. How'd he die from that?
We're looking at this thru a camera. When it ended he probably wasn't even in a lot of pain. Its the 30 min to an hour after. That's when you really start to feel the burn.

The article said a boy named James died. I was assuming it was the boy in the video.

the article also has a picture of another black boy doing the fire challenge in the shower, has a news video of a white boy who is recovering from the challenge, and then the other video of the black boy who isn't near a shower, but he clearly runs into a bathroom into a shower, which didnt appear to turn on, but they got the fire out after a short while too. so who knows.
