Condom challenge

The condom challenge is a viral internet challenge. The challenge most recently involves filling a condom with water and filming it being dropped on one's head, and often involves the condom becoming stuck to one's head. The challenge originated in May 2006, when a video was uploaded onto Break.com of a young man successfully completing the challenge. The term "condom challenge" was coined in May 2012 following the widespread popularity of the cinnamon challenge, but the idea is several years old and videos of challenge attempts date to at least 2007.[1] The challenge went viral in April 2013, when WorldStarHipHop posted a video of two young females attempting the challenge, and several people subsequently uploaded videos onto the internet of themselves attempting the challenge.

The original stunt poses potential choking hazards.[2]
