The Dangers of 'Milk Crate' Challenge

The viral video is taking the social media platform by storm; the viral frenzy already amassed more than 15 million views on TikTok.

The mechanics are simple; a person will try to cross over a pyramid of crates without falling.

However, medical experts are warning the public regarding the dangers of this challenge.

Dr. Rajwinder Deu of John Hopkins University spoke to USA Today and mentioned that the social media craze is very risky for someone's head to toes.

"Everything depends on your fall, what angle you fall and what part of your body hits the ground first," the doctor said.

Severe injuries are also possible when a person falls as it can dislocate hips, torn ligaments, fractured wrists, and more.

In early reports, Snoop Dogg is also slamming the challenge, calling it the "bridge of death" as he posted a compilation of videos showing its adverse effects on people who are participating.
