Teenage Girl Beaten By Her Mother After Attempting ‘Pass Out’ Challenge, Did Mom Go Too Far? Footage Goes Viral


WARNING: Videos contain graphic language and content.

Online challenge games are the latest trend. All around the country, teenagers are participating in the newest form of competitive sports. However, some of the games have proven to be quite dangerous and potentially fatal.

The latest fire challenge has left several teenagers with severe second and third degree burns after they intentionally set themselves on fire. Another popular game that has been the potentially deadly “Pass Out” Challenge, also referred to as the “fainting game.” For those who don’t know the rules of the game, here’s how it works:

“Sleep/pass out challenge: It’s this ridiculous thing where you bend over, take short, deep breaths really fast to hyperventilate and then someone else pushes you against a wall, pressing hard against your sternum. It often causes one to pass out,” a user explained via Redditt.

Although most teens fail to see the danger in playing such disturbing games, one mother made sure her daughter was aware of the consequences. When she learned her daughter was participating in the outlandish game, she made it a point to express her disdain. Her daughter received a beating some teenagers wouldn’t even fathom in their worst nightmares. Then, to add insult to injury, footage of the jaw-dropping incident was uploaded to World Star Hip Hop.

The shocking video shows the girl being reprimanded for her actions. The video starts off with her mother ordering her to move the coffee table from the center of the living room to prepare for the punishment. Once the floor was clear, she proceeded to beat her with a thick belt. The teenager received several lashes that would probably make anyone cringe. She was hit repeatedly across the back and arms throughout the video. Her mother intended to make a point, because the potentially fatal game has claimed the lives of several teenagers nationwide over the pass few years.

There have even been deaths reported as a result of kids attempting to win the game. According to New York Daily News, an 11-year-old boy died after playing the game back in 2010. Then, there was another fatal incident involving a 15-year-old boy who died after acting out what he had seen about the game on YouTube.

So, the mother’s concerns definitely have merit. However, many viewers expressed mixed opinions about her actions. Some supported her brand of punishment stating it was befitting, while others felt her approach was a bit extreme. The video has received more than 5,500 comments and an estimated 6,200 shares on World Star Hip Hop since it was uploaded on Friday, August 1. The controversial video has also garnered lots of attention from concerned viewers on the hip hop site and Reddit.

“Never understood the logic of an a– whoopin from a parent like that. “I’m inflicting physical pain upon you and showing you that violence and rage is how to solve problems. So take this belt as the explanation of why you don’t do “pass out” challenges! Don’t you get it!”
S–t makes zero sense man.. You wanna know the one and only time I ever spanked either of my kids? One time man, my son only. He slapped the s–t out my niece. I still wish I had been able to handle it differently but the s–t made me upset cause I watched my moms get hit, you don’t hit females, period! If it’s going to be pain you inflict as a lesson, let it be a lesson of what it felt like to that person the child first inflicted pain upon. That’s my take on it, anyways,” a user said via World Star.

However, a user on Reddit felt the mother’s approach was justifiable.

“Call me old-fashioned but I think this looks like the parent at least cares about their kid and is disciplining her so she doesn’t end up being one of the idiots who does the “fire challenge” next, said kg5003 via Reddit. I’m guessing it was recorded because kids record themselves doing this “challenge” videos so this mother probably wanted to record and post the consequence.”

Do you think the mother’s punishment was necessary or extreme?
