no to something that sounds dangerous.
Unfortunately, children are susceptive to peer pressure and the like; even the most intelligent of youngsters can be coerced andfmconvinced to partake in stunts that promise dire consequences.
Just ask the parents of 11-year-old Tyler Broome, who suffered horrific injuries after trying a YouTube craze known as ‘the roundabout of death’.
Yes, the name alone pretty much tells you the salient facts of the matter, but for Tyler it wasn’t so much an incredibly dangerous stunt as a way to show his friends how fearless he was.
The 11-year-old thereafter sustained injuries consistent with those seen in fighter pilots, after bein subjected to extreme gravitational force (G-force).
The craze he participated in – known as the ’roundabout of death’ – sees participants sitting in the middle of a playground roundabout whilst it’s spun at high speed using the rear wheel of a motorcycle.
Shortly after the ordeal, Tyler was found unconscious near the roundabout, left with possible damage to his brain and vision.
Extreme force
It’s believed he was subjected to the sort of G-force usually only encountered by pilots and astronauts.
It’s reported that Tyler was at a local park with a friend when they were approached by a group of older teenagers who dared them into the game.
Terrifying ordeal
“I don’t recognise my child – he is on the verge of having a stroke. Tyler sat on the roundabout, and the boy who came over was about 17. Tyler doesn’t know him, they are not friends,” his mom Dawn said, per British newspaper The Independent.
“He puts his motorbike on the floor, gets the roundabout spinning at such a speed. When they all stopped, the group just cleared off – it is bullying.”
Dawn claimed that hospital staff had never seen such injuries and had to do research before they were able to begin treating her son.
“The injuries were so extreme, he just looked like the Elephant Man. They have never seen it before, they are going to make a medical report from it.
“His head has completely swelled up, his blood vessels have burst, his eyes look alien. His vision is blurry. You can manage a broken arm but this? He doesn’t remember it, he doesn’t remember the detail.”
Parents, please always bear in mind that children are susceptible to trying things we adults would stay well clear of.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to young Tyler and his family. Share this story to spread the warning over an incredibly dangerous game.
Bull has spent his entire life behind bars, and the sight of his newfound freedom is truly a breathtaking moment
In a touching video, a bull that had spent nearly his entire life in chains finally experiences freedom. The moment is beyond words.
This story serves as a reminder that we should pay more attention to the treatment of farm animals, like cattle and pigs, and show them the same compassion given to pets. As Rolling Stone once pointed out: “Every state has laws against cruelty to house pets, but few protect farm animals”. Sadly, this rings truer than ever today. Still, there are many compassionate people working tirelessly to help neglected farm animals.
In this case, a dedicated team managed to release a bull named Bandit after years in captivity. Bandit’s reaction to his newfound freedom is nothing short of incredible, he leaps with joy, savoring the experience. The video, originally posted by the German YouTube channel Gut Aiderbichl, has since captured over 30 million hearts worldwide.\
When a sanctuary volunteer first steps into Bandit’s stable, the bull responds with gentle licks to his hand, visibly emotional. Just moments later, Bandit finally tastes freedom, and his exuberant leaps and kicks reveal his happiness and new vitality.
Today, Bandit has found a new forever home where he can live in peace. Watch this heartwarming moment in the video below!
