Capitán Bermúdez – Argentina: A 12-year-old Argentina girl died after attempting the deadly blackout challenge popular on TikTok. The incident took place on January 13 in the city of Capitan Bermudez, Bermudez, Santa Fe Province, Argentina.
The girl, Milagros Soto, was found dead in her home after allegedly attempting the chocking challenge. Milagros Soto had successfully attempted the challenge twice before, but is believed to have died on her third attempt.
