Jacob’s father says the teen was at home with friends when he overdosed. He says Jacob’s friends filmed him attempting the social media challenge when all of a sudden his body started seizing.

They don’t.

And more of these moronic “challenges” will be made and distributed among impressionable kids.

Social media is the devil

---

Jacob’s family told WSYX the challenge was to take 12 to 14 pills and it would create a hallucination.

There’s a “dumb ways to die” meme in this.

Why try to impress rando people on the internet who can never be entertained enough?

Social media is a cancer

But unlike cancer it has a known 100% effective cure and its impact can be entirely avoided if people would just stay away from it.

What exactly is the Benadryl Tik Tom Challenge? The story didn’t clarify what he was trying to do

---

Yes it did. Something about hallucinations after 12-15 pills.

Sad story. My son is not allowed to have Tik Tok or any social media. I already had a talk with him about these stupid Tik Tok challenges and I showed him news story videos of how many of them die doing this stupid shite.
