I have thought hard about sharing this because the last thing I would ever want is for someone to copy it. I am 100% NOT supporting this in any way. If any kids are reading this, NEVER try this; it’s dangerous. I thought I’d tell you about TikTok's latest challenge!!! Drop things on your feet, challenge.
A social media trend where users drop progressively heavier items on their feet. The Tiktok trend #droppingthingsonmyfoot has been used on hundreds of videos, leading to a podiatrist warning participants they risk “a lifetime of pain and disability.
Lisa Kenevan (bereaved mum to Isaac and fellow mum in our lawsuit) reported this to TikTok. Only for them to return with no surprise: “No violation” (see photo).
How many people and potentially children might try this (don’t do it) and one day hurt themselves or, God forbid, cut a vein in their foot and die?
Oh, but oh no, they don’t have harmful challenges on their platform. Ofcom won’t take individual complaints like this from us. So how is this one going to stop?!
Parents, please warn your children not to try this.
