The #MilkCrateChallenge has been the latest social media challenge clogging our feeds this week. People have been stacking plastic milk crates to form a pyramid, and then recording themselves attempting to walk up and over them successfully. Why watch the Tokyo Olympic Games when you could participate in your very own Hood Olympics?
You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to know that upside down milk crates can’t support the weight of fully grown human beings, but people are trying it nonetheless. Unfortunately for those that have (and have been unsuccessful), their painful-looking tumbles have been shared across the internet. Fortunately for us, it’s the kind of fucked up content we live for.
This isn’t to say that it’s completely impossible– some people have made it to live another day. One woman even completed the challenge wearing high heels. But it’s amazing the level of boredom people will reach to do things, even if it means a trip to urgent care. We’re not condoning or encouraging people to try the #MilkCrateChallenge. (But if you must, please let us watch).
Here are a few:
