Buried Alive: TikTok bans Nigeria’s content creator account after controversial 24-hour coffin stunt

The TikTok account of the Nigerian content creator,  Young C, who embarked on a 24-hour challenge of being buried alive has been banned by the short video platform.

A quick check on the platform showed that his profile was no longer available, although he already created another account where he updated his fans about his survival after the claimed 24-hour buried alive stunt.

Young C had sparked outrage on Wednesday when he embarked on a challenge to be buried alive for 24 hours.

Young C’s stunt bears resemblance to a similar challenge undertaken by American YouTuber MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson), who spent 50 hours buried alive two years ago to raise awareness about deforestation.

Recently, MrBeast attempted to surpass his own record by spending seven consecutive days buried in a coffin, overcoming physical and mental challenges before being exhumed.
