A 12-year-old Oklahoma boy was found with ligature marks on his neck on July 19 after taking part in the blackout challenge, a dangerous trend circulating on TikTok wherein TikTokkers film themselves holding their breath or choking themselves until they lose consciousness. He was taken to the Oklahoma Children s Hospital for treatment but died early the next morning.
Tragedies like this one have led a group of parents to call on TikTok to let them see all the videos accessed by their children, to keep abreast of the dangers.
