Social media challenges which could potentially harm participants pop up and die down randomly, and the current trend involves milk crates and dangerous stunts. Videos with the hashtag #milkcratechallenge on TikTok have racked up more than 10 million views – but what does the challenge actually involve? Well, people stack up milk crates in a pyramid in order to form steps they can walk up. They will then attempt to walk up and down the construct as it gets more dangerous.

The highlight of the videos is usually the fall, with people wobbling as they get closer to the top. Most of them end in complete destruction of the structure, with the person crashing onto the floor below. Some doctors have warned at the trend’s potential to really harm people. Some doctors even reminded those who might get injured doing the challenge that, due to the pandemic, there might not be a hospital bed for them. One woman managed to walk up and down the construct wearing heels, proving it is not technically impossible given the right balance…and dress code?
