The boiling water challenge is sending people to the hospital

OMFG. It never ceases to amaze me how stupid some people can be.

I've done this tons of times over the years with no problems. It doesn't take a flippin' rocket scientist to know what precautions you need to take to prevent injuries to yourself and others.

 

- some people -

 

You mean do throw it at or over people?!

 

I feel smarter

 

These are the same people that did the bird box challenge and ate Tide pods. They probably piss into the wind. I would say these folks are definitely in the spectrum.

 

All I can say is, WOW!

 

Darwin award winners!! Kinda know why they eat the weakest in the herd.

 

You don't pee into the wind......

 

Seems obvious right? It also seems smart to not throw boiling water in the air above you or at someone hoping that it turns to snow. At least give it a trial run first!

 

Darwin Award recipients waiting to happen.

 

Call it "pee in the wind challenge" and theyll all get a phone out to record themselves trying it.

Swear everything is a "challenge" now.

 

I bet you could make it a thing very easily.

 

And yellow snow is frozen lemonade right. Lmao

 

Haha .

 

Or on an electrified fence?

 

People always say that but the lady who got burned got seriously burned, that wasn't an average temperature cup of coffee.

 

I'll put this in simple terms for all the Dodge truck lurkers....

People are really fuckin' stupid.

 

If stupidity was a painful condition, a lot more people would be addicted to painkillers. The tide pod "challenge " is one of the dumbest acts if stupidity I have seen in a while.

 

It’s right up there with the challenge where people were lighting themselves on fire with lighter fluid. That one seems smart

 

Survival of the fittest works in mysterious ways.

 

You don't pull the mask on the ol' Lone Ranger...

 

How about I start a "everyone give me $5.00 challenge". Don't want to seem greedy.

 

Or tug on Superman’s cape

 

And you don’t mess around with Jim

 

Great minds . . .

 

Take off all the warning labels, and let it sort itself out.

 

Yep. The lady got 3rd degree burns, and originally only asked for her medical bills to be paid. McDonald’s said no, so they got their asses sued off.

Every one forgets McDonald’s was 100% in the wrong and refused to make it right.
