Nowadays a lot of teenagers will do anything to get a reaction out of their friends or for viral fame.
In this day and age it's the ultimate sign of validation. It doesn't matter what it is, or what the consequences will be, if it makes a good video, it's getting done.
This is epitomised by a teen who body slammed then threw a 68-year-old woman into a pool with her two dogs.
The teen was attending a party in Broward County, Florida, when Nancy James interrupted the event to complain it was too loud. She entered the back yard with her two dogs while being filmed.

After a lot of shouting, the teen comes out of nowhere picking up the 68-year-old and instantly dropping her thanks to the slippy floor.
The 16-year-old was later arrested for one count of battery on a person 65 years of age or older, according to NBC Miami. He was sentenced to 21 days in juvenile detention, which will be served at his home while he wears a tag.
He told officers: "I messed up and I have to own up to it," according to an arrest report.
Nancy came away from the incident hurt, having a large bruise on her leg from when she was dropped. Following her being thrown in the pool footage shows the majority of the party leaving, running out of the house.
"He picked her up below the butt and that's when he slipped and fell," a girl at the party said. "We started to scream when she fell cause we thought she had hurt something. Everyone started running after that cause we all got scared."
"She doesn't walk that good, you can see that. Like, why would you do that to her?" Nancy's friend Shay McNair said. "She was recovering already from what I understand a broken hip from not long ago."
