PG Rated




The Irish calls it the American Dream. And the Americans call it the Choking Game. Children all over the world call this game by different names. But any person in his or her right mind would know that it is definitely a deadly game.

This is how it’s played: A kid would choke a playmate until he or she passes out. Then they wait for that person to come to and they repeat the same thing all over again, taking turns in choking each other to get high. These games are recorded on video and posted on the Web for every other kid on the planet to see.

For those kids who do it, the Choking Game is just a fun pastime. But a good number of children have already died from playing it and some have barely survived and are now suffering permanent brain damage. Parents cannot be too careful in supervising their kids' activities, especially when some games have now become deadly.
