The Cinnamon Challenge: Rules, Risks and Videos

Most cinnamon challenge videos turn out the same.

Everyone watching knows what to expect except the poor sucker doing the challenge.

It is a slow and painful wait to see how the poor fool would fail and pour it all out, and then we all erupt in laughter, as the poor sucker hustles for water to help the dry throat.

In this hilarious and what must be a painful moment for the sucker, the realization that this was an impossible challenge set in.

The sucker decides: “someone must pay, someone else must swallow cinnamon while I watch the excitement and hope in the eye of the fool and laugh as the idiot realizes that hope is a drying river and cinnamon drys up the throat.
