A 14-year-old boy found dead by his mum was attempting a challenge on TikTok.
Lauryn Keating, 30, discovered her son Leon Brown unresponsive in his room on August 25. The youngster had tried the viral 'blackout challenge' which sees users restrict their breath until they fall unconscious.
However, the terrifying trend can cause low levels of oxygen to the brain leading to severe brain damage or death. Following Leon's death, heartbroken mum Lauryn issued a stark warning to parents.
