Don't lick that frog. Also don't take these yesteryear 'trendy' challenges

Some frogs and toads secrete literal poison. So this is a no-brainer, right? But Americans are licking Sonoran desert toad to get high. The trend is catching on so fast that US National Park Service has had to make an appeal on Facebook urging people not to lick the toad.

It does not matter for takers of this challenge what season it is. If people on the internet are doing it, it must be done. The ice-bucket challenge became a huge thing some years ago with global celebrities taking it like there was no tomorrow.

It doesn't apparently suffice to get frostbitten because of ice and salt mixture. Need for sure-shot injuries is only fulfilled by fire right? This bizarre logic led people to pour inflammable liquids on parts of their bodies and set them on fire.

Real macabre this. People were clicking selfies with remains of other people whose funerals they were attending. Enough information.
