26 Crazy Things People Did For Social Media Attention



People tend to partake in extreme stunts to promote their brand. Others do it to build media status, hype their courage, and importantly for the Attention. From acting plain idiotic to bad stuff, people are pushing the limits to draw attention to themselves. And instead of garnering fame, they’ve continually made themselves a laughing subject matter. Many people, especially extroverted beings, want to be loved and be in the spotlight. 

But unluckily, a large fraction of this humankind who are willing to go any length for both adoration and attention have landed themselves in chaos. Proving that common sense, including morals and decency, is quite rare, such individuals have ended up on the list of some subreddits, and undeniably, you can’t just get enough. We’ve compiled 25 of the awful ones for your perusal, and they’ll, of course, leave you thinking. Have a look!
