Ah, teens. The idiot portion of this population – of which I, a good and right human, was never part of – have found a new path to viral fame and possible internal bleeding.
The #BackpackChallenge involves teens lining up and pegging their schoolbags full of books at a fellow teen as he or she attempts to run through.
As you can see, the teen rarely makes it through.

Palmdale High School student Abucci Wood claims to have invented the Backpack Challenge, which has spread it amongst the network for Idiot Teens™ (Twitter) to other high schools across America.

Often we millennials who graduated high school just as Facebook was finding its legs express gratitude that we made our dumb teenage mistakes before the rise of social media, but I propose we extend our thanks to growing up before internet challenges were de rigueur.
The BackPack Challenge, like its idiot predecessors the Fire Challenge or the Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge, can get fucked.
