According to Wikipedia, TikTok is a short-form video hosting service, owned by the Chinese company ByteDance. It shows short videos (3 seconds up to a minute) of users doing almost whatever they want.  They include dancing, food, pranks and just about anything you can imagine.

Recently, there has been a rash of TikTok Challenges, and many would say are just plain dumb!  Here are a few for you to decide what you think about:

Hole in one challenge

No golf isn’t the focus, even though the golf ball is.  Challengers use a golf ball to place it in holes that are not made for golf balls.

Death Dive

Challengers dive from extreme heights into water trying to prove….. who knows what they are trying to prove!

Nope! Not for me!

The NY Times

They came up with what they think are some of the craziest challenges. Here is what they put on the list description isn’t necessary for most of these:

  • NyQuil Chicken or Sleepy Chicken- don’t try this at home!
  • Gorilla Glue girl- Gorilla Glue is not meant for your hair, although she did get over $20,000 for her efforts.
  • Several Teeth challenges- What, make you own teeth, Vampire teeth, uhhh, no thank you!
  • Corn Cob Challenge- This one should be tied to some of the teeth stories because if you try to eat spinning corn on the cob, you may need to see a dentist afterwards.

Of course, there are many other disgusting

“challenges” that may land you in jail or worst in a hospital bed or a funeral home.

What are some of the TikTok challenges that you have seen that leaves you shaking your head?

Be aware that most schools block TikTok and many forms of government have blocked the App from government owned phones and computers.

The 'Dirty' TikTok Trend Taking Idaho By Storm

Why is the internet blaming Mormons in Utah and Idaho for this popular TikTok trend? Well, there's a lot of talk about here and it really goes back to the rules around caffeine. If you aren't familiar, for years, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints banned the consumption of caffeine. As a condition of church membership, nearly all addictive substances are prohibited and in Utah and Idaho where the Mormon faith is in the majority, it's just a well-known fact.

Now, in Idaho and in Utah, a "Dirty" trend has been put on display for all to see via TikTok and it doesn't matter where these people live or what they do or do not believe in...it's catching on because allegedly, it's TASTY!
