Schoolchildren began to poke their fingers en masse into a socket, arranging a deadly flash mob

A new deadly flash mob has been trending on the net, which many schoolchildren have begun to repeat, recording their actions on video.

TikTok network users massively record videos on a flash mob called Outlet Challenge. According to Gamebomb.ru, its essence is to make the outlet smoke and sparkle. To do this, teenagers insert a charger, for example from an iPhone, so that the contacts of the plug are a little visible. In this position, a metal coin must be thrown into the gap between the outlet and charging. It will cause a short circuit, as a result of which sparks begin to fly and smoke begins to flow.

At the same time, information appeared on the network that several incidents had already occurred due to the Outlet Challenge challenge. It is noted that in one of the schools in the English city of Plymouth, students burned a class, trying to repeat a dangerous trick. It is noted that no one was injured as a result of this incident. Firefighters arrived at the site, found a charred charger from the iPhone, as well as a coin welded to the outlet. At the same time, rescuers note that doing such a trick, schoolchildren are seriously at risk. As a result of a small explosion, a coin can fly off directly to the face and get into the eye. Clothing may also catch fire due to sparks. In addition, you can get a fatal electric shock.

It is worth noting that the school from the English city of Plymouth is no longer the only one where similar incidents occur. Firefighters also report other cases when students try to repeat the flash mob not only at school, but also at home. Rescuers ask parents to inform their children of the serious dangers of the Outlet Challenge. “We need to make them understand that this is all very dangerous. If someone got away with this trick in the video, this does not mean that you will be lucky either, ”experts say.

According to Gamebomb.ru, some students who fall for similar activities in the walls of the educational institution will be punished.
