What is the raw egg challenge?

The "raw egg challenge" is a dangerous internet trend where people attempt to crack a raw egg on their forehead and avoid getting any egg yolk on their skin.

Here's why it's dangerous:

* Salmonella risk: Raw eggs can carry Salmonella bacteria, which can cause food poisoning with symptoms like fever, diarrhea, and stomach cramps.

* Head injuries: While some people may be able to crack the egg without getting yolk on their skin, there's always a risk of the egg hitting the head with force, potentially causing bruising or other injuries.

* Infection: Even if the egg is clean, cracking it on your forehead can introduce bacteria and other germs into open wounds or abrasions.

The raw egg challenge is not worth the risk. It's important to remember that internet trends can be dangerous, and you should always prioritize your safety.

Alternatives:

If you're looking for a fun and safe challenge, there are many other options that don't involve putting your health at risk. You could try:

* A physical challenge: Do a plank for as long as you can, or try to do a certain number of push-ups.

* A creative challenge: Write a short story, draw a picture, or learn a new song.

* A learning challenge: Learn a new fact every day, or try to learn a new language.

Remember, it's always better to be safe than sorry!
