Sack Tapping New Schoolyard Prank
Written by admin on June 2, 2010 – 5:24 pm -
I don’t see how this can be a fun way to play pranks on friends but I guess some kids find this amusing to say the least. According to the news going around about this prank kids find it fun to punch each other in the balls. Hey, what ever floats your boat guys!
The way this prank is played boys gather around voluntarily and trade punches to the groin, hence the term sack tap. Usually a phone is handy and the video is immediately uploaded to YouTube and shared.
This dangerous game is getting some attention now because a boy has lost a testicle from sack tapping.
ABC News has decided to highlight sack tapping. In interviewing a number of doctors, all who seem to be discussing a serious and very violent blow to the crotch, they outline the seriousness of this school yard activity. Dr. Scott Wheeler, a pediatric urologist in Minnesota, warned parent’s about sore scrotum.
“Parents need to talk to their kids about this, and hopefully that will have an impact.”
14-year-old David Gibbons is the teen who lost a testicle. He describe the game as one to see which boy can endure the pain of a knuckle blow via a flicking motion.
David’s mom says, “This may be called a game, but it’s not a game. It’s dangerous and it needs to stop.”
I remember I got kick in the groin when I was younger and it was no fun. I don’t see how these kids can think this is a great prank to play on their friends but it may be a way to get back at your enemies. I don’t know about you, but I’m going to do a search for some sack tapping videos right now.
