Title: Bird Box Challenge
Post by: oldbuddy on January 14, 2019, 08:02:33 am

Have you heard about this crazy craze yet?

I can't believe how many people are stupid enough to risk losing their lives over something so obviously useless.

Haven't heard of the challenge.. Did however see the movie... and it doesn't suprise me that there is now a challenge for it.. I don't understand all these challenges.. they just seem to get stupider and stupider.. Snorting condoms, eating tidepods, car surfing, hot peppers , etc.. It's absolutly incredible the amount of stupid this world is coming to.. ::)

Good grief!  Where are people's brains??? 

I can't believe people are idiotic enough to take any challenge or dare that could be deadly to themselves and others in mere seconds.  Drive blindfolded????  Testing and driving is dangerous enough---illegal in most states--

Such insane challenges are thought up these days. I am not at all surprised. Hopefully they will stop doing it soon.

A few have already stopped, when they discovered the consequences.

I heard about it on the radio on the way in to work today. Reminded me of that stunt kids were pulling (also based on a movie scene) where they would lie down flat on the double yellow line on a busy street.


Movies are movies, video games are video games, and real life is real life.  There is no rewind or reset button folks!

I watched Bird Box a few weeks ago. As I was watching the scene where they were driving with blacked out windows using the GPS to navigate, first I thought 'nope, sorry, GPS isn't that accurate' and then I thought 'I wonder how many people are going to try to do this now.'

I have not heard of this challenge yet.  Kids will do some really dumb things as challenges.  Some might be harmless but others are not.

         This should be illegal.

People committing suicide because of the movie? Because people kill themselves every day.

It's called common sense, which seems to be deteriorating year after after.

The movie was ok, people going around driving blindfolded and walking around is stupidity, really.

I had not heard anything about it until I started seeing on Twitter where people were crashing after driving blindfolded.  IF someone does that and they hurt someone it should automatically be at the least life in prison. If you kill someone then it is automatically the death penalty.  I am so sick of the stupidity that encases our country.  If there was swift, immediate punishment for stuff like this the others would not be so quick to follow suit.  That and not getting instant fame.

Hello! :D :)

No, I haven't heard about it until now and I can't believe how stupid people can really be to try this. Apparently, life is not short enough they want to shorten it some more. I went to watch the movie after so many people were obsessing over the movie but to be honest it wasn't even that good. Certainly not good enough to lose your life over it! :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

Post by: vg7405 on February 01, 2019, 04:05:48 pm

The things that people do in order to re-invent the (dangerous) stunts that they see on television and in movies. Although it is a different concept, I thought the Pokémon Go craze was idiotic enough. But the human race as a whole sunk to a new low with this Bird Box crap. When Net-freaking-flix has to issue a statement on something that, on the surface is common sense, you know there is a problem.

I actually can't believe how much common sense is not shown anymore with these types of stunts.
