Apparently Tiktok has like 2 BILLION(!!) users. As crazy as that is, if even 0.01% of users is doing some dumb crazy thing, thats pptentially 200 000 kids injuring themselves or whatever when they wouldn't otherwise. Its not a trend among the majority of users, but it is a trend that was spread by tiktok.

Isn't it a Chinese company? They probably make up the majority of the demographic.

Well yeah but thats a lot of people globally. My point is just that something doesnt have to be widespread on tiktok for it to stull reach a significant amount of people.
