Why the Dry Scoop Energy Supplement Challenge Is Dangerous
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 11. 2021
- “The dry scoop challenge” is an alarming new trend, and our investigation found that teenagers and other gym enthusiasts across America are gulping energy powder down without mixing it in water, and it can be dangerous. 20-year-old professional dancer Briatney Portillo says she suffered a heart attack after dry scooping. A different workout supplement called “Dark Energy” contains a potentially dangerous chemical stimulant. We went undercover to a store that was selling it, even though it was banned by the FDA.
Literally almost every challenge on TikTok is extremely stupid and dangerous.
Yes Milad I agree especially the one where people licked toilet seats

Don't give them ideas, otherwise, this could be the next "tiktok challenge" 🤐🙀
This sounds like a cool challenge idea I’m down 😎👍🏻
Pretty accurate 😂
💀
Facts 😂😂💯
Respect to the store guy. He is the first person I’ve seen to accept an interview when confronted.
Definitely respect that he accepted the interview as well!
Why wouldn't he accept it? He did nothing wrong. He literally warned them.
That the customer purchases it is on them. They aren't a child to be told what to buy or what not to buy. It's called personal responsibility, kind of like when someone buys alcohol.
On gawd
"Don't sell it how about that?" Lisa Guerrero isn't the brightest person. The business is going to continue to sell it wether it's dangerous or not. It's like selling alcohol and nicotine, as long as it's legal it's still going to be sold by the company regardless. The guy running the store isn't wrong about what he's saying.
Literally the cinnamon challenge all over again
I immitely got flashbacks when I heard about this

Except 10 times worser now
Reminds me of the mad dog 357 plutonium challenge 🔥 🔥
At least cinnamon is spicy and doesn't pose a risk of overdosing on caffeine.
Why don’t they make real challenges like get a job, get a college degree, clean up trash from rivers, lakes, creeks, oceans, etc.
Yessss!!!!
@@user-ki4jc7il1n thank you. I already did the college degree challenge lol.

Wow! I used to dry scoop pre-workout years before being called a challenge. Never had any side effects other than getting great pumps.
I didnt even know it was a challenge
@@luketurley8140 I didn’t even know pre workout was a thing
Booty pop pumps? - Tony Baker
I only dry scoop if I forget my water bottle and have to buy bottled water
@Wildlife warrior lol can you not read sir? "And I have to buy bottled water" I can't fit my scoop in store bought water that's why I dry scoop and drink water after
Store clerk seems to be doing his job. He warned you. That’s all you can hope for. It’s up to the individual to decide what they put in their body. It’s something we need to be teaching people much more.
I mean the store clerk isn’t wrong, alcohol ruins people lives and it’s still legal to buy to the public so there is nothing he really can do.
Not really. Alcohol is legal and u know what's in it. This isn't legal and people will take it thinking it's just for their workout without reading it's not for human consumption
@@reehanshahparast8315 knowing what’s in alcohol doesn’t make it any better. The fact is, alcohol kills 90k+ people every year and the only reason it’s legal is because the government can’t make it illegal. They’ve tried and failed before.
So because alcohol is legal and dangerous, you should be able to sell any dangerous substance?
cigs and dip
@@cjordanvab who even said that?
I’m glad she poured the power into the water to demonstrate how to mix it with water
I think some people might be a little under average in their way of thinking, and her demonstration might have helped those, maybe also people with mental issues

@@eshanbrohi5035 i thought your'e supposed to blend it with a blender
Now you know
@@ForceInEvHorizon wait a minute... you were thinking of blending a powder to make what? A finer powder
I've been dryscooping for years. I just swish water around in my mouth.
And there's literally no way you'd get more caffeine by not adding water
"Or don't sell it?" I mean I'm with the store clerk on this one, he even warned the undercover customers, shows that he prob does to other customers too, he's not selling it to make these people consume it, he's selling it to make profit, other than that, whatever the customers do with these stuff, it's not his fault, that woman reporter is pretty arrogant in my opinion

@@dirkdiggler2379 I also have it. Do you think it has an illegal ingredient in it that’s not on the label?

@@user-kr8ms9mj3t dmaa is fine, you'll be fine but you just have to drink a good amount of water. I have like 4 of these, they don't sell them anymore.
That’s funny
2:16 "And he even pushed another product containing the same dangerous stimulant... its name, crack." Imagine hearing this line without having the video for context.
You dont just try to swallow the powder dry, you put a little water in your mouth and then swallow. I dry scoop my pre-workout all the time and am ok.
I'm surprised the store owner actually allowed to be interviewed instead of walking away and shutting the door.
He has a point though yes he could do what the interviewer said and just not sell it but his point is if he tells people it’s not for human consumption they should probably not buy it themselves or at least listen to him since dangerous stuff can still be legal since it can’t be made illegal
free publicity
He had nothing to hide. He gave the proverbial surgeons warning..
Same thing as cigs and alcohol. No difference.
It’s like rushing in cigarettes store and tell the owner don’t sell it’s dangerous 😲🥱
The news media is more stupid than stupid can get.
Eddie is not that bright...he warned her that Dark Energy was banned but then sells her Crack...true salesman lol
That's capitalism for you

I love how the seller just answer honestly instead of refusing to say the truth or refusing to talk with lisa but this man is just confident into saying and warning customer about this dark energy we need for sellers like this🥰🥰🥰
He’s just a man with a job. Something a lot of people need rn. Don’t crucify him. People can make their own choices.. at atleast he reminds them of the warning and not tryna lie saying it’s a great product.
that guy has a good point and he’s completely right. Right or wrong, that’s just business
Exactly
Well it boils don't to being unethical. And also proceeded to sell another product that was also illegal!
True, they make him look like a bad guy
@@fireflymiesumae he is the bad guy ! it’s unethical, doesnt care about his customers just profit
Facts and they acting stupid that girl why don’t u ask the government the same question
I like Eddy, he don’t force it down no one’s throat, he literally told even then not for human consumption, idiots still go to buy it. He made a choice to sell it, they made a buy & consume it.
fr the Lisa kind of made me irritated
@@GiveMeBread1 she literally went out of her way to search for the product and found it and tried to make the situation bigger than what it was. What did she expect? I’d hope bodybuilder and people that workout check into what they’re consuming beforehand anyway
Fr, at least he is doing a good deed and telling people that it is not for human consumption and the reason why the company put that there.
He's not really to blame, he's just doing his job and selling it, he even warns about it
I use to dry scoop back in the day. Plenty ppl did this in the 90s. But we actually thought it was safe. No one died but when we found out it could kill you we stopped.
@Wildlife Warrior I'm sure it's a lot you never heard of.
@Wildlife Warrior yeah keep thinking
I don’t blame the dude at the store at all. He’s just making a living. If he doesn’t sell it people will find it somewhere else if they want it that bad.
What about for the people who sell drugs?
Inside Edition is savage, she really called that dude a "gym rat" 😆
Edit: I understand now that it is a compliment, no need to leave your reply along with the 5 other people who already informed me.

Suddenly banning TikTok doesn't seem like a bad idea.
I don’t think Tik Tok is to blame here. They usually take this type of stuff down, it’s just the people that do this stuff.
@@vibin7703 it gets everywhere because of tik tok so shutting down tik tok suddenly would do a lot of things.
so...should we ban Jackass, and every prank show too?
This is a dumb argument, banning TikTok will not stop such idiotic action. Another app will just replace it, why not strike at the problem? Give huge consequences and fine those idiots or jail them.
@@nagabamiko8098 I essentially mean that TikTok doesn't crack down enough on dumb challenges. They give them a platform, and don't take it down until it gets media attention.
Well technically the guy has a point. This is similar to selling and buying smokes, people still sell and buy it. Even though it’s says on the package “use on your own risk”.
2:46 - that look to his response that "what do you want me to do? I don't make people's decisions for them."

Bleach is not for human consumption but we still sell it. It's the consumer's choice to decide how they want to use it
i agree with your point but why compare it with bleach lol it has other uses than drinking (DO NOT DRINK BLEACH)
Speak for yourself
@@agigamestamil there’s still the fact that after a customer/buyer buys something it’s up to the customer/buyer not to be stupid with and to defiently use the product properly. Like with protein powders&energy boost powders you should be smart enough to use it/mix it with water and not to use it dry since you aren’t suppose to use them dry anyway if someone uses it dry stupidly that’s on the customer/buyer for not following the instructions that the powders come with properly or at all that would not be on the person or store selling it.
Um… but bleach is usually sold in the cleaning aisle and advertised as a cleaning chemical. This powder is sold in a supplement store…and the guy is advertising it online as a good source for energy when consumed…
@@olinggy which it is a good source of energy. Your not supposed to over take any supplements including vitamins. Since y'all want to say bleach was a bad comparison, what about water? Drink too much water in a short period and you can die just like preworkout
The business owner is in the right. Yes, he shouldn't be selling Dark Energy but it does warn "not for human use" to where he told them about that. Again, it's up to the customer to decide if they want it or not
Well if its not for human use, what else can you use it for? There would be no reason to buy it
@@deed2157 thats up the customer. The business has its right to sell it, he isnt promoting it for consumption
@@ZvoGenius He literally said "that's only for special occasions so don't use it everyday" so he is promoting for consumption. The business itself is for people who want to buy specific products if they're into fitness, an athlete, want to be healthier, or lack of certain nutrients etc..
while he is totally in the wrong for selling them, you cant hate the player, hate the game, he tells them its not good for people and people still get them
@El Topo And how is this any different from most corporations?

Honestly I see nothing wrong with selling what he sells. As long as there’s a demand, and there’s a supply, if the customers don’t buy from him. They’ll just buy from someone else. So why not him make the money? He gives full disclaimer that it isn’t exactly safe

When I'm working or working out & need more focus & energy, I dry scoop. Also, when I'm on a long solo road trip, just 100 miles from destination, need to be more alert, yep. I put the powder in my mouth, 1/4 - 1/2 scoop, then a sip of water, it helps a lot.
