The "Challenge"

I am pretty sure that if you are a parent, you have heard your son or daughter talk about the challenge that is sweeping the internet. The name of the challenge is "The Cinnamon Challenge."

You can find it on Google, and Youtube. There have been plenty of questions if the challenge is indeed safe. According to the Urban Dictionary

 

    A prank in which one person dares another to swallow, without the aid of
water, a spoonful of ground cinnamon within sixty seconds. The spice dries the
challenge taker’s mouth and is almost impossible to swallow. Some accidentally
inhale the cinnamon which causes temporary but severe chest pain, much to the
amusement of the challenger. Challengers use prize money as
persuasion.

 

This does not sound like a challenge that these kids should be participating in because the consequences are too severe.
