There are many challenges that are being made up by this generation. These  challenges are very dangerous to people’s well being. The challenges being made up are: ‘Charlie, Charlie Challenge’, ‘The Momo Challenge’, ‘Blue Whale Challenge’, ‘Salt and Ice Challenge’, ‘Cinnamon Challenge, Eraser Challenge’, and the ‘Fire Challenge’.

  A lot of these challenges have to do with harming yourself. For instance’, The Blue Whale Challenge is a suicidal game based on killing yourself once the game ends. Then , there is the ‘Momo Challenge’ shows a scary creature that arrives in kid tutorials and it tells children to harm themselves. That they need a sharp object and that they can’t tell anyone the creature is on their screen or they’ll harm them at night. The Salt and Ice Challenge is where  the person rubs ice on their body and then applies salt on their skin. This is dangerous because, it can injure the nerve and damage the skin much more quickly.
