Young Egyptians playing dangerous games

[DJKeefy]

I have see quite a few of these videos a lately, It seems to be a new craze

I doubt someone getting killed will stop it, Young Egyptians share these videos between themselves and on social media sites to show how cool they are, I suppose with so little to keep them entertained this becomes the new fun.

It only needs a carriage service pipe to become detached and hanging down and it would take his head off, or snag his feet and throw him under the wheels.

What you have shown is, to coin a phrase, absolutely child's play. Last night I watched the travel show on BBC. It highlighted the young Russian craze of becoming ''stars'' on social media sites preforming very dangerous stunts. Russia has been labeled the most dangerous country for these stunts, killing many willing participants. The program interviewed one of the most famous and well known. He is in his late teens or early twenties. He preformed his latest stunt. He set fire to himself and jumped off an eight story building to land onto a pyramid of soft snow. Another highlighted was a young girl that took a 'selfie' of herself with a loaded gun to her head. Unfortunately she didn't know that when she clicked the photo button, her automatic reflexes kicked in and she pulled the trigger at the same time, blowing the top of her head off.

Stupidity is a world wide problem it would seem.
