WATCH: #TheBackpackChallenge is the New Social Media Challenge Trend

It’s hilarious. Potentially unsafe, but gosh, hilarious.

I have no idea who actually comes up with these social media challenges (is there a social media challenge regulatory board or something?), but there is a new one now and it’s called #TheBackpackChallenge. If that sounds a bit complex and might need some explaining, basically it’s some random dude (or gal pal) running through the middle of his or her peers who would all be throwing backpacks at the brave, foolish soul who took on the challenge. I’m also not sure what the point of all this is, but who gets any of these challenges anyway?
