Popular video-sharing platform, TikTok, has permanently banned the account of Young C, a Nigerian man who embarked on a 24-hour challenge of being buried alive.
Young C had caused a stir online on Wednesday when he embarked on a challenge to be buried alive in a coffin for 24 hours.

Prior to initiating the feat, he broadcasted a video on his Instagram handle, affirming the authenticity of the impending 24-hour act.
Nonetheless, TikTok proceeded to deactivate the entertainer’s profile for contravening the platform’s community guidelines.
In response to the suspension, Young Cent issued a plea to his followers via a video on his fresh TikTok account, created soon after the stunt’s conclusion on Thursday. He urged his audience to join him on his new channel to stay abreast of his activities.
Part of his message read, “It appears my previous TikTok profile has been deactivated, and I’ve established a new one under the handle ‘@youngcententertainment2’. I implore everyone to connect with me promptly. Help me reach a milestone of 1000 followers so I can initiate live updates and keep you all informed.”

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.
