New Craze gets kids high

I'm trying to find a link to this but I heard it on the news this morning.

Basically, kids get a rope and try to hang themselves. This stops the blood getting to the brain. At the last minute, they undo the rope and all the blood rushes to the brain. This gets them high like the use of heroin but without all the side-effects and dangers.

The problem being kids are unable to get the rope off OR try and take it off to late and they die.

Good Site. I love their slogan:
Quote:

by honoring those who remove themselves from it.


Anyway, I doubt that it doesn't have some side-effects (besides dying if done incorrectly). I'm sure that restricting oxygen to the brain kills plenty of brain cells, no matter how you do it.

something similar I heard would happen. Kids would push their hands against their necks hard enough to get dizzy probably from restricting the jugula vein.


Stupid, sure, but very different in my opinion because when they start to lose consciousness they necessarily release their grip, allowing their brain to get oxygen again. Not so with a rope.

true this is totally stupid.

but think of the totally stupid things your or your friends did at that age.

kids do stupid things as part of growing up and its out job as "adults" to tell them their idiots.

its like throwing rocks in a glass house. sure its fun. but once you break something, your really in the "sh*t" then.
