Congratulations, you guys are awesome! That was a cool video, even more when you noted that you guys had already eaten, so pushing that last mile was really awesome. .. blaugh lol, mishiri, I seriously thought I was the only person who ate little nips and chewed, haha. It's even worse when I drink fizzy soda...lol.

I'm confused as to why eating a small bowl of rice is a challenge >.> Make it a plate where they can't use hands???

As with any stunt/challenge, it's not something one should do unsupervised, that anyone underage should ever attempt, or should be attempted without knowledge of the risks involved. There's going to be some level of risk to any challenge, such as choking on saltines.

I agree that the other challenges could be risky as well. But I am still glad Gaia staff did not have to do the Cinnamon challenge. I have heard it has become a trend lately among kids and teens, a dangerous one that has led to near deaths as some other Gaians mentioned. I think you should have posted this caution information in the Original Post. Because a lot of your users are in an age group who might attempt this, because kids and teens do stupid things- and I just don't think seeing Gaia staff do it too will help. I know user welfare off site isn't your responsibility, but I would think you wouldn't want to be seen as encouraging dangerous behavior.

Please know too though that we also didn't want to see Gaia staff harmed from that challenge. I don't know for sure, but I think cinnamon can be more dangerous than other foods because it's in powder form and maybe the heimlich maneuver wouldn't work as well and the person could suffocate. So I hope you guys had a medic on hand , for all the challenges. The peanut butter one can be pretty dangerous too.
