'Door-kicking' TikTok trend mistaken for home invasions
Fox ^ | 12/2/2021 | Fox

Police are alerting schools, parents and community members of a potentially-dangerous challenge seen on TikTok which encourages others to kick in the doors of homes.

In videos shared on TikTok, young people kick doors to the beat of the song "Die Young" by musical artist Kesha before running off. Some use enough force where doors are kicked open entirely.

Jennifer Pritchard of the Petaluma Police Department in Petaluma, Cali., said danger is heightened when people are unfamiliar with TikTok trends and could interpret the prank as a "a real life or death situation."

Pritchard said those participating in the door-kicking challenge "don't know which door" they're about to kick.

Black and Tan, 120 pounds and lays 8 feet from the door. Someone would be leaving their leg behind as a chew toy.

GOOD DOG!!!

Bad guy in this video ignored the dog sign and paid with his life. Dogs will not be put down and owner not charged. Bulldog involved looks like my American Bulldog 10 years from now and about 20 additional pounds.

Beautiful!

My dog would bolt right to the door if someone kicked it in. She’s quite the defender.

It’s all fun and games until someone gets killed but then again, that might be the point.

Yes I shouldn’t even joke about the drill!
There are a small number of people who would actually attempt it.

From the memory hole:

October 17, 1992, Japanese exchange student Yoshihiro Hattori was shot to death after “knocking on the wrong door”.

Most of the stories I found were slanted. MSM has ruled for a long time.
