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.
Viewers demand ‘jail time’ after streamer crashes McLaren whilst filming leaving his friend bleeding inside
The content creator was streaming at the time of the crash
observers have been left affrighted and demanding’ jail time’ after watching footage of banderole
and influencer Jack Doherty crashing his McLaren.
The 20- time-old YouTuber and happy creator has made captions after footage surfaced of him crashing his high- powered McLaren supercar into the rail on a binary expressway.
It would appear that Doherty had been live- streaming on Kick at the time of the crash, with footage from the incident latterly appearing online.
In the vids which have been participated on X- the content creator appears to be driving down a trace in heavy rain while putatively detracted by his phone. It’s unclear what exactly causes Doherty to lose control of his vehicle, as he begins to swerve to the right and smashes into the rail.
The videotape also cuts to the fate of the crash, where a shocked Doherty can be seen standing outside the auto blurting ‘ Holy s ** t’ before turning the camera towards his cameraman Michael, who’s bleeding from the face, and asking” Are you okay?”
” Oh my god bro, my whole f**king auto bro,” he adds, showing the auto rammed under the hedge with corridor of the bonnet bestrew across the road. He also hands the phone to his injured friend and asks him to continue recording.
Another videotape depicts the moment bystanders pulled Doherty and his friend from the auto.
substantiations saved the content creator and his friend from the auto while they continue rephotographing, with Doherty heard saying” My f**king auto, holy s ** t no.”
Doherty latterly participated updates on the fate of the crash on his social media accounts, attesting that both he and his cameraman Michael were n’t seriously injured in the incident, still, Michael did bear aches to his face.
The videotape creator has also posted an update on his own account, thanking everyone who reached out to check if he was okay after seeing the videotape.
While Doherty’s followers were relieved to see that he and Michael were safe a lot of people online were n’t impressed by the videotape and have called for the content creator to face impacts for his conduct.
” License suspended, jail time,” one person wrote on X.” This is well proved reckless driving. At a minimum he should be banned on all platforms for this.”
” reckless driving,” a alternate person reflected, while a fourth added” So your telling me he started recording the moment the crash happed yeah wtf.”
It would also appear that Doherty’s Kick channel has been removed in the wake of the incident, with a link to his runner now coming up with an error communication.
It’s unclear where exactly Doherty had crashed, a road sign spotted in his videotape suggests he was in Florida, still, it’s worth noting that all of the US countries( with the exception of Montana) have restrictions on using your phone while driving.
