How about the 'Beat your ass with a tire iron' challenge?

CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) — Another social media challenge is pushing safety limits, and this one involves loosening or removing lug nuts on car tires. 

Police in Massachusetts have said the prank, called the “lug nut challenge,” has been seen in their communities, and an unnamed WWLP viewer said their family fell victim to the prank, which led to a wheel falling off of their moving vehicle.

  1. It’s Chicopee. If you live near there you’d understand.

  2. If someone is maimed or killed by these ignoramuses I'd find out who started the challenge and give them 30 years to life.

    1. I would agree with that ... unfortunately we live in an era where Soros' district attorneys wont prosecute unless it is one of their privileged classes that was attacked.

    2. 'Life' meaning a shove from the deck just beyond the twelve-mile limit off the coast.
      Pay-per-view.
      Chumming should hilariously increase their attempts to 'walk on water'!

  4. My wife told me the newest TikTok challenge is slap a teacher. I may not be religious, but I am praying daily that there is video of some punk ass, wanna be bad boy getting his ass beat by the football coach.

    1. Most schools these days would end up firing the coach and giving the kid a hefty paycheck.

  5. That's about on the same level as the government's "get the jab" challenge, with people killed because of loosing a wheel also counted as covid deaths.

  6. I'm thinking the best punishment for someone caught doing this is placing them under a car with a leaky floor jack holding it up. It would give them a little time to think about their poor decision.

  7. Somebody trying to murder (or maim) you is not a prank.

    Piss on their graves.

  9. Its an easy fix. They can be found on social media so charge all who share the Challenge with Conspiracy, Conspiracy to commit murder, Aiding and Abetting, Use of a telecommunications device to commit a conspiracy. All Federal Charges under Title 18. This stupidity would soon stop. It'll never happen though.

    1. Years ago there was a website called - if memory serves - "Charleston Thug Life". It was a couple of people who just searched Faceborg for profiles of guys with felony records and collected the posts of them posing with drugs, guns, other felons/gang members, etc. They even had examples of hits getting planned, or discussed after the fact. All prosecutable offenses, all out in the open. They gave up after the police and DAs never did anything.

  10. Hmmmm... The torque on my Chebby's lug nuts is 140 ft lbs.

    Loosening that seems to be an awful lot of work for a Modern Youth.

  12. Lost the left rear driving a 'Vette one time. Required extensive fiberglass repair and a new set of lugs all around. And a new pair of underwear.

  14. 1975 or so.
    1965 Chevrolet El Camino.
    Somebody loosened four of five on my right rear.
    I realized the situation in the middle of Greenback and Sunrise in Citrus Heights, California.
    Eight lanes crossing eight lanes.
    .
    Four left the scene, one allowed me to flip-flop into the Montgomery Wards parking-lot.
    .
    Ha.
    Ha.
