The guy in the vid is Brennan Lee Mulligan and he runs a ttrpg game show for dropout TV (previously known as college humor). It is probably one of the funniest show available to watch. Season 1 is free on TH-cam.
....yeah thats not true at all. Theres literally tons of videos of people doing it. Also medical records are private because of HIPAA so you would have no way of knowing that.
@If You're Feeling Adventurous... Ah, I should have been clearer. 😂My bad. No one "ingested/swallowed tide pods, that I've been able to find. Poison control keeps incident reports. 86 people did bite into them, and regretted it.
@If You're Feeling Adventurous... 😢The one trend that was and is still dangerous and has put thousands in the hospital, (again, poison control reports) are the sleeping meds challenges. Thousands of vids for those. Mostly kids overdosing on benadryl, melatonin, pm medicines etc.😢
I have no sources on this. I could research to find them cuz its been awhile since I did, but this is a youtube comment, not an essay or video I'm making so take my comment however u'd like. 🤷♂️ Yeah the tide pod "challenge" was something that initially some kid did with minimal social presence. Then the news picked it up n labeled it a challenge. Kids like challenges n if one kid did it so can they. The kids doing it did it only after the news picked it up n broadcasted the idea around. Before that, i'm sure a lot of kids thought about doing it, but no one was really trying to. The news advertises these challenges to ppl who wouldn't've known about them but who would want to participate in them. Sometimes they make up challenges based on incidental reports, other times they bring more attention or revive an old challenge, very rarely they actually help prevent a challenge from becoming big. I say rarely cuz I can't think of any n saying never would require a hell of a lot of research. The mentality of "if it's big enough for the news to pick up, it must be huge" is a dangerous one. Some reporters will search records for a good story n news channels will see that smaller story, believe it was well researched already, n broadcast it leading other news sources to do the same so as not to be left behind. If I remember correctly, this exact scenario played out with an article from "The Onion", a satirical news website, that was picked up by a reporter without research n spread to all the major news outlets cuz of it. It happens when ppl don't do their research when researching is their literal job description. I was still really young at the time of the tide pod challenge n had no social media presence. Found out about it cuz of the news then later, internet memes. The fact that my generation was labeled the tide pod generation for so long cuz some reporter decided this single case of a kid eating a tide pod was worth a full report is really annoying imo. This was long n no one's probably gonna read it. Especially since it was a comment reply. Thanks to whoever did actually read it. Have a great day.

Nobody actually ate a tide pod. There isn't a single hospital record 😂
