In less than four days, at least 11 high school students ended up with injuries and fractures at the Naum Ohridski hospital alone, following the "superman" tiktok trend. It is a dangerous challenge among high school students, but also among elementary school students, which is increasingly present in schools.
In Zelenikova, Skopje, near the primary school, a father reported to the police that his son was seriously injured by this challenge.
The challenge is for someone to jump with an outstretched arm like the comic book character Superman, and the group throws the challenged boy or girl into the air. He jumps over a group of kids who will either catch him or not. This video was made in one of the secondary schools in Skopje.
Also, in some elementary schools from the eighth and ninth grades they accept this challenge. From the videos, it is often seen that the group moves aside and the child falls directly onto the concrete. The director of the "Naum Ohridski" hospital, Nebojasha Nastov, explains that the children have various injuries.
Doctors say that such challenges are very dangerous. Injuries can have much more serious consequences for children's health./Alsta.M/
