The #MilkCrateChallenge is not for the faint-hearted

What is it with social media and crazy challenges? They just seem to be getting more insane and dangerous by the day?!

The latest challenge to hit the web is the #MilkCrateChallenge. No, this does not involve seeing who can drink copious amounts of milk without getting sick - this challenge involves balance, skill, bravery, and a little bit of imbalance upstairs.

The aim is for the person partaking in the challenge to navigate their way up a tower of milk crates. Sounds easy, right? No… far from it.

The tower of crates is far from stable, and the issue arises the higher up the person gets. As a result, injuries have been reported, but that hasn’t stopped people trying to get the better of the challenge.

What did Albert Einstein once say? “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Yeah, that. That definitely applies here.
