timmy Posted August 12, 2017 Report Posted August 12, 2017 Blue Whale Game: What Is It in 6 Points Last month a 9th standard student in Andheri in Mumbai jumped to death, apparently because of the Blue Whale game. A 7th standard student in MP jumped off a third floor this week. The Blue Whale challenge is not a video game. It is simply a set of instructions, like a chain letter, but made viral with social media. Social media savvy teens have discovered this challenge from different hashtags on Twitter, Tumblr, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. Networks like Tumblr and YouTube are now trying to help by showing suicide prevention groups contacts when users post Blue Whale related keywords. The challenge was created by Philipp Budeikin, a 22-year-old Russian, who directly handed out instructions to some children. In an interview this year, he said he made the game to "clean society," as people who participated in it were "biological waste." He has been jailed for three years. It remains unclear who is the current administrator now, and how many of them exist. It gets its name from beached whales, that get stranded and die. Reports of deaths linked to the Blue Whale game go back to 2015, and started in Russia.. http://gadgets.ndtv.com/social-networking/news/blue-whale-game-challenges-tasks-in-india-what-is-it-1736367 Quote
