After the Kiki challenge, the 'Bin bag challenge' or 'Vacuum challenge' has resurfaced on the Internet as a new craze among users on Twitter and Instagram.
The unusual challenge involves people moving inside a huge garbage bag after which a vacuum is used to suck the air out of the bag.
Since the challengers would be sealed inside the garbage bag, they would have a hard time moving their bodies. Those who take up the challenge are seen having difficulty adjusting to the new situation as the air gets sucked up, making them react with amusement and laughter.
The videos have been watched over thousands of times on social media platform. Some have even made children take up the challenge.
From little children to youth in colleges, many are taking up the new challenge and it's not hilarious, as one shouldn't underestimate the power of a vacuum cleaner and the ability of a plastic bag to choke one.
The trend is quite scary and could lead to injuries as well. After the risky Birdbox challenge, that many willingly participated in earlier this year putting their lives at risk, the new one is yet another silly challenge.
