A 12-year-old girl has become the latest victim of a dangerous new online trend which sees people setting themselves on fire.
Daisy Schumer, of Missouri in the US, had to be taken to hospital with burns to her back after taking part in what has been dubbed 'The Fire Challenge'.
The new trend has seen videos posted online of people pouring alcohol over themselves and setting themselves on fire.
Daisy told how she was injured after taking part in the challenge.
She said, “This person poured the perfume on my stomach and then I told her to stop and then she lit the lighter and I was rolling on the ground trying to get it out and it burned my back.”
Earlier this week it was reported that another American teenager was recovering from second-degree burns after copying the new trend.
The 15-year-old, who did not want to be identified, poured rubbing alcohol over his chest and filmed himself.
He said, 'I just poured alcohol on it, and lit it, and it just automatically went and burst.”
Firefighters arrived at the home of the boy's aunt and took him to hospital for treatment for severe burns on his chest and abdomen.
Firefighters in Lexington in the US said they hope others listen and don't try to copy the teenager.
“What they don't show at the end of the videos is the consequences of doing this, getting second and third degree burns,” Lexington Fire Department Captain Chris Harrod said.
Videos online reveal a number of youngsters - some as young as 10 - either using an aerosol canister or alcohol as an accelerant and then lighting their chest, legs, arms or even genital areas.
