Jan 28, 20163:52Now PlayingA teen is currently suffering from a brain aneurism after he attempted the duct tape challenge on the internet. Skylar Fish’s arms were bound when he fell over and his face landed on a window frame and then the concrete ground. Hands are extremely important in breaking falls. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"The latest Internet challenge reportedly left a teenager with dozens of staples in his head and vision loss that may be permanent.
According to New York Daily News, 14-year-old Skylar Fish was previously a regular participant of the so-called “duct tape challenge,” which involves people wrapping their bodies in tape and trying to free themselves.
The Renton, Washington teen admitted he and his friends used to tie each other to poles and see if they could get out on their own.
But on January 16, Skylar’s friends duct taped his arms and legs while he was standing up instead of taping him to a pole.
He then apparently fell over as he tried to break free, hitting his head on a window frame and then concrete.
Skylar compared the impact to being “hit by a car.””*
