backpack challenge

Remember last week when the hottest teen trend was standing still as a statue in goofy poses while your friend panned by with a camera? A simpler and safer time. Now, inspired by a group of students at Palmdale High School in California, the newest challenge to emerge from the primordial internet ooze involves lining up and forming a gauntlet on either side of a single person and then having every person in the lines throw their, ostensibly full, backpacks at him or her as he or she runs past, at full tilt, until succumbing to the packs and crumpling to the floor.
