I just heard about this. It's a suffocation game that young kids play.
Basically you choke yourself to the point of passing out and it gives you a head rush.
The problem is that the window between head-rush and death is and
this much. Many kids are dying from this stupidity. I saw something last night on
The Fifth Estate about it.

When an Alberta mother went looking for clues and anwers as to why her well-adjusted nine-year-old might have committed suicide by hanging, she discovered some information about a disturbing social phenomenon called the choking game.

Very scary... and very stupid.
