There is a craze on social media which has caused a huge uproar.

The #DeadPoseChallenge has taken over social media. It is a prank in which someone pretends to be dead in order to get a reaction from someone else.

Thandolwethu from East Coast Urban came across a video online this weekend that left her in tears. 

Warning: Some viewers may find the video below disturbing.

The child can be seen in the video crying and seemingly in distress. The mother, on the other hand, is heard laughing at the end of the video. She clearly believes that this is funny.

The reaction from Thandolwethu and the overwhelming response from KZN listeners was sheer disgust at the mother’s actions.

Listen to the podcast below and share your comments on whether or not you think this challenge is plain stupid or just harmless fun?
