TikTok Takes Action On Viral Crate Challenge

Video-sharing social media platform, TikTok has taken action on
a viral crate challenge, which has caused a stir on the internet
recently.

The platform spoke against “dangerous acts” and noted that it
will remove content that glorifies such acts, Fast Company
reported.

TikTok also warned users to desist from acts that will endanger
them.

A statement from TikTok read, “TikTok prohibits content that
promotes or glorifies dangerous acts, and we remove videos and
redirect searches to our Community Guidelines to discourage such
content. We encourage everyone to exercise caution in their
behavior whether online or off.”

A fun challenge or a death trap?
The viral crate challenge has caused a stir on social media as the
challenge appears to be causing more pain than fun.

The challenge involves stacking some milk crates into stairs and
forming a pyramid with it.

The participant is expected to climb up to the top of the
pyramid-shaped crates and climb back down without destroying the
structure.

Unfortunately, it appears that people are destroying their rib
cages rather than the structure, as most participants landed with a
crash while attempting the challenge.

Only a few participants were able to go up and down the shaky
structure while maintaining their balance.

Asides TikTok, the challenge has caused a wave on Instagram
feeds and reels, as people from different countries attempted the
challenge.
