Gently advising parents to keep your children off TikTok, something awful is circulating.

Hope this is ok to post here, I haven't seen it mentioned elsewhere on the site as of yet.

There is a video circulating on TikTok (and other platforms) of a man committing suicide. Some disturbed individuals are saving and re uploading the video which is appearing in unsuspecting people's feeds.

People are also disguising the video with slides of animals which quickly changes to show the suicide clip, so people/children are seeing it before they realise what's going to happen and being traumatised.

My children are too young for mobiles and apps but I know alot of parents whos pre-teens/teens use these things.

Just awful Sad

Apologies, I've just found a pre existing thread discussing this. I'll ask MN to remove this one.
