'Fire challenge' leaves Michigan girl, 12, with severe burns over half her body

[Laerrus]

On the bright side, some of these idiots are no longer in the gene pool.

Someone please, find a way to blame Trump.
Something like that isn't new, in fact it's as old as internet. Kids really need to find better ways to "be cool"

[Trassk]

Children learn when their young that sticking a folk in an outlet or holding your hand over a candle burns you. I have no sympathy that a kid at age 12 hasn't learned these lessons when a chimp can learn fire bad

[Slirith]

My thoughts on this...

[Sage89]

That poor girl!

You guys really have a thing for bringing up Trump in unrelated matters.

I hope she heals fully.

I don't think she'll try it a second time.

[The Stormbringer]

Come on man, why'd you make me laugh so hard in work.

I mean, there's stupid, then there's "SET YOURSELF ON FIRE TO BECOME FAMOUS" stupid.

Still not as dumb as that guy who was shot by a massive gun by his wife/girlfriend/whatever, holding a book in front of himself. Though, in that case, I think he was secretly suicidal.

I'm even torn as to whether or not anyone should help pay for this idiot's bills. Yes, she's twelve and twelve year olds are not known for their intelligence, but holy shit. Really? I feel like paying the bills for her just tells her that even when she makes god awful mistakes, people will take care of it for her. That's not a good mindset.

Don't give them ideas. Never mind, let the idiots wipe themselves out. Ideas away~

Darwinism at it's finest, if you're dumb enough to self immolate, you should not be allowed to breed and pollute the gene pool more.

[Hilhen7]

Just more evidence that social media is a waste of time...

[Elba]

They're actually doing the world a service. Average IQ and common sense seem to be dropping, Darwinism tends to fix that.

Sociopaths who cheer children getting hurt are worse for the species.

[Coolthulhu]

Reminds me of the guy who taped himself getting shot by her girlfriend through a book - with a .50 AE no less.

[Frolk]

Nice, cant be long until Rat poison or Cyanide challenge pops up now.

[Dextroden]

Okay. Now that I know the fire challenge is a thing and people will do it, I am now 100% convinced these challenges are there to replace nature being able to weed us out.

[Ozzyorcborne]

The Darwin awards should be knocking on their door anytime now.

[The Stormbringer]

Nice, cant be long until Rat poison or Cyanide challenge pops up now.

I mean, the Tide Pod challenge was literally people eating poison, this would just be stronger and more effective kinds.

[Synros]

Honestly, I lost all sympathy for people who do these internet "challenges" a long time ago. I'm convinced it's some ploy to weed out the idiots from the gene pool.

[Dextroden]

I mean, the Tide Pod challenge was literally people eating poison, this would just be stronger and more effective kinds.

And people would do it just because the word challenge is attached.

We must now accept that fact and pray no one makes the Fast & Furious Stunt Challenge.
