A blundering 16-year-old has told how his face was left badly bruised after attempting to take part in the internet craze dubbed the Kylie Jenner challenge. Embarrassed schoolboy Kevin Coulton wants to expose the dangers of the gruesome internet fad after it left his face swollen.
He posted a picture of his damaged face on Facebook, with the line: "Don't suck into a glass." Kevin is one of the latest victims of the bizarre experiment and was left in agony with a severely damaged set of lips.
The schoolboy says the trend is all the rage amongst teens, but is warning others not to follow in his footsteps. He told the Manchester Evening News: "It's a bit stupid. Everyone's doing it and I just thought I would too. There wasn't really a reason.
"It really did hurt, and it went all purple and bruised straight away. It hasn't gone down three days later. My parents were shocked. "I did it with a glass. A lot of people say it should be done with a shot glass to do it properly. Everyone in school is doing it. But I want to tell people not to. It hurts and the bruising takes ages to go down."
A Twitter search of #KylieJennerChallengeGoneWrong brings up hundreds of images of teens posting the results of their attempts at the disturbing social media trend.
