A Washington state mother is warning families about the "duct tape challenge" after her 14-year-old old son nearly died while taking it. The boy ended up nearly choking on his own blood as he friends watched, Sarah Fish said.
The so-called “duct tape challenge” popular on YouTube involves having your body wrapped in duct tape and seeing how long it takes to escape. Skylar Fish, 14, and his two friends took the challenge on Jan. 16. His friends taped his legs and hands with duct tape as he stood in a room and then waited for him to free himself.
