Últimamente se están haciendo virales retos y juegos extremadamente peligrosos que pueden llegar a causar la muerte. Primero fue el 'Hot Water Challenge', que consistía en echarse agua hirviendo en la cara, después 'Hielo y Sal', que causó quemaduras en la piel, y ahora aparece el 'Tide Pod Challenge'.
The challenge in question is to cook, bite or eat detergent capsules as if they were food.Dr. Alfred Aleguas in the USA Today ensures that this challenge can be a "threat to life" because swallowing only a small amount of detergent can already cause diarrhea and vomiting.
In fact, even part of the detergent could reach the lungs and cause breathing difficulties.
The name of the game, 'Tide', has as reference a well -known American detergent brand.The company has already warned consumers of the risks that lead to use their capsules for anything else that is not to wash the clothes.
However, the American Association of poisoning Control has already registered 10.500 poisoning for detergent consumption.
