Two teenagers have been charged with aggravated assault this week, after attempting to pull off the 'Skull Breaker' challenge on the social media site, TikTok, and leaving a 13-year-old boy with a serious concussion.

Per People, Stacy and Marc Shenker, who hail from in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, claim that their son was left hospitalized back in January after two boys filmed themselves tripping up their son as part of the viral prank challenge.

The video in question shows two boys ostensibly attempting to show the seventh-grader how to pull off a dance move, before tripping him up. The unnamed child was knocked to the ground and hit his head, and school employees called Stacy to say that her son had been taken to a nearby hospital with a head injury.

According to court documents from the Camden County Prosecutors Office, the two boys responsible were charged with third-degree aggravated assault and the endangerment of an injured victim (also in the third degree), which led to him suffering a seizure and concussion.

The documents add that parents should: "Talk to their children about the potential consequences when you participate in a 'challenge' or online trend. While the challenges may seem funny or get views on social media platforms, they can have serious and long-lasting health consequences."

The press release adds, "By having this talk with your kids, we hope to prevent future injuries and raise awareness about the real danger of some of these online trends."

Meanwhile, Cherry Hills Public Schools superintendent Joseph Meloche stated in a letter: "Often, children act impulsively and without considering the consequence of their actions. If your child has an electronic device, ask them to share what apps they are viewing and using. Help them to understand the extreme unintended outcomes that may occur because of a fleeting moment of making a bad choice."
