A tragic incident in New Zealand has resulted in the death of a 19-year-old, Ryan Satterthwaite, after he suffered a serious head injury while participating in a full-contact tackle game inspired by a viral social media challenge. Known as "run it straight," the game involves players colliding at high speed without any protective gear. While played casually in the region, the popularity of the game has increased, raising significant safety concerns. Authorities are urging caution due to the risk of severe injury in such activities.
The tackle game played by the group of friends was based on a social media-driven trend, where participants compete in full-contact collisions without protective gear.
While this was an impromptu game among friends, not a planned event, this tragic outcome does highlight the inherent safety concerns with such an activity.
