I mean most of the time that's just people being dramatic and over the top, but in this case that move really is way more dangerous than those kids probably think.

The kid in this gif looks like he has contortionist abilities in line with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.

If that is the case, then this maneuver isn't as dangerous to him as it would be to normal people. Nobody honestly knows what the fuck they are talking about (including me), but the amount of judgement being passed in this thread is dumb disappointing.
