Dangerous Pranks Say goodbye to the 'Bird Box' challenge. Inspired by the Netflix film, people were attempting to perform everyday tasks while blindfolded. A Utah teenager crashed her car into oncoming traffic attempting the challenge. YouTube has completely banned its users from uploading dangerous challenges, citing similar instances such as the Tide Pod challenge and the Fire challenge. A violation will result in the removal of the video and a “strike” will be added to
the account. Users with a "strike" are limited in what they can do for 90 days. YouTube spokesman, via CNN
