Boy who injected himself with a crushed butterfly mixed with water 'for online challenge' suffered horrific seven-day slow death, it is revealed - with the insect's toxins feared to be the cause of death
The fourteen-year-old boy who died after injecting himself with a crushed butterfly suffered agonising symptoms for seven days before he died, local media reports.
Davi Nunes Moreira, 14, died in hospital in Planalto, Brazil last Thursday after telling staff he had injected a solution made of crushed butterfly into his leg.
Believed to have carried out the dangerous procedure as part of an 'online challenge', Moreira began vomiting and struggled to walk before admitting his mistake.
The youngster was taken into hospital by his father and remained in the Vitória da Conquista general hospital for a week, receiving specialised support, before he died.
Last April, an online influencer from Brazil nearly required amputation after taking part in an ill-advised viral trend for her two million followers.
'Thammy MC' was left unable to walk after standing in a bucket of ice and salt for an online 'dare' that turned her feet black and nearly required the amputation of her toes.
'We spent 15 minutes with our feet on the ice with coarse salt,' she said, recounting the horror.
'When I took my foot out I never felt such pain in my life. Three of my toes had turned black when it came out of the ice bucket.'
Thammy was treated at a clinic where she was told she was at risk of thrombosis, and that she could have developed necrosis had she remained in the ice another minute.
Unable to put any pressure on her feet, she said she now gets around the house by being dragged around in a garden chair by her mother, who pushes her from room to room.

A contraception debate is gripping one of Argentina's most notable luxury neighbourhoods – not for its wealthy residents, but for its original occupants, the capybaras.
In recent years, the lovable rodents have been accused of overrunning the Nordelta, a meticulously landscaped and manicured suburb north of Buenos Aires.
Now, in a bid to quell reproduction – some accounts suggest the number of capybaras has tripled to more than 1,000 in the past three years – the Buenos Aires government has approved wildlife population control plans, involving selective sterilisation and contraceptives.
Marcelo Cantón, a resident and spokesperson for the Nordelta Neighborhood Association, says that while capybaras themselves are not a problem, the "excessive growth" of their populations is, adding that it is causing the creatures to "fight among themselves, fight with dogs in private gardens", leading to traffic accidents.
"Capybaras have more than 500 hectares of lakes and public parks here, with no predators, no hunters to catch them for slaughter," he says. "There are none of the limits to population growth that exist elsewhere."
According to El País, the new plans would see two doses of contraceptives injected into 250 of the rodents, known locally as carpinchos, which authorities hope will stem reproduction for up to a year.
But not all neighbours are in agreement. The Nordelta sits within the Paraná Delta, an environmentally important wetland home to dense flora, an abundance of birds and dozens of species of mammals.
Silvia Soto and a group of neighbours known as "Nordelta Capybaras – We Are Your Voice" say the plans should be halted, dispute that there is an overpopulation problem and criticise property developers for ignoring proposals to create biological corridors and protected areas.
"For years, we have been asking for different, linked green areas that function as natural reserves connected by biological corridors, to protect the capybaras and preserve their survival and coexistence in their own natural space," Soto said, adding that the group's surveys had "not been taken into account".
Environmentalists are also now weighing in and calling on the government to protect the capybaras, which are the world's largest rodent, and the wetlands.

Hoje, Joyce faz parte de uma articulação que luta por cotas para trans nas universidades públicas. O movimento tem participação de entidades como a Associação Nacional de Travestis e Transexuais (Antra), que elaborou uma nota técnica para orientar políticas públicas sobre ações afirmativas para pessoas trans, travestis, transmasculinas e não binárias no ensino superior.
De acordo com levantamento do g1, ao menos 23 universidades públicas brasileiras aderiram à política de cotas desde 2018, sendo que 16 delas (69,5%) aprovaram a ação afirmativa entre 2023 e 2024. O aumento nos últimos dois anos é fruto da articulação da qual Joyce faz parte.
Lmao, also !macacos chud Paraná still has no quotas. God bless the UFPR.

Eu sei que o título parece
, mas não é.
Não estou falando nem de subs como o /r/Brasil, que já são basicamente branches da SECOM. A maioria dos subs brasileiros que eu vi que estão comentando sobre o negócio da OpenAI/DeepSeek tão claramente sendo astroturfados.
Não precisa ser necessariamente um setor em Pequim com um monte de chinês fodido do pau pequeno postando bosta, pode ser só os webcomunistas de reddit que já são pró-PCC fazendo o bagulho, mas não importa. O resultado é o mesmo.
''Gente'' chamando o massacre de Tiananmen de ''revolução colorida'', ou falando tipo ''ah, quem liga pro que aconteceu naquela praça lá, tenho conta pra pagar'', ai tu vai ver e o cara tá chupando a rola do Xi Jinping no /r/BrasildoB.
Eu não visito mais o rBrasil, aquele lugar é uma singularidade de estupidez, mas eu tem mais ou menos uma semana que eu tô vendo bastante uns subs brasileiros.
Esses dias eu tava no sub de investimentos e tinha uma notícia pró-governo. Você abria a página de usuário do OP, e ele estava escrevendo em 3 linguas diferentes (tailandês, sânscrito e vietnamita) em subs aleatórios, até que um dia ele decidiu postar esse link pró-governo no sub de investimentos (e nunca mais postou nada em português).
O reddit brasileiro está praticamente inutilizável

Brazil negotiates with the US to end handcuffs in flight of deported Brazilians
The use of handcuffs by Brazilians throughout the deportation flight from the United States to Brazil has generated discussions. The US claims security measure, but for Brazilians themselves, their families and authorities, it is humiliating and unnecessary for those who do not have a criminal conviction.
Two more planes chartered by the United States government should arrive this Friday, 11, at Confins International Airport, metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte. In one of them, 200 passengers arrive; in the other, 135. They must land, once again, handcuffed. But the measure has generated indignation.
Despite the appeals of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the US government's procedure is due to "security issues".
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MRE) reported that the issue of the use of handcuffs in deported Brazilians is still under discussion by the two countries. "Brazil has been expressing its sensitivity to the subject at a high level and maintains its expectation of an adequate outcome. In particular, he has insisted that the vast majority of Brazilians who return on such flights do not have a prior criminal conviction and does not represent a threat to the safety of the aircraft. Itamaraty remains committed to ensuring dignified treatment to all nationals abroad, especially minors," Itamaraty said in a note sent to Correio Braziliense.
According to the MRE, in conversation with the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, on the 30th, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Carlos França, expressed concern about reports of handcuffed Brazilians. "Secretary Blinken indicated in response that he would convey this concern to the competent government area. He also reported that the possibility of flights composed solely of family groups in which handcuffs are not used would be examined," the note stressed.
Washington authorities also admit that they continue to dialogue with the Brazilian government on the subject, but the signal is that the rule is the same for all deportees, regardless of the country of origin. The procedure is for the safety of crew members and passengers, in order to "avoid fights during the flight" or even a hijacking of the plane.
Since last November, US migration authorities have used Title 42, a border closure rule due to the emergency resulting from the covid-19 pandemic, to accelerate the deportation process, which occurs, on average, in two weeks. In the cases of Brazilians who test positive for the coronavirus, it is necessary to wait longer until the confirmation of the negative test for boarding one of the two authorized flights, weekly, to Brazil. With information from Correio Braziliense.

Starts with post on /r/Brazil about the deported !macacos not having stewardess on their flight home
No Water Or AC On Flight, Handcuffed: How Brazilians Deported From US Reached Home
One Australian expat in Brazil asks
Can you imagine the outcry from Trump & his cronies if Australia put 100 of them on a plane, handcuffed & shackled & flew them back to the US?
The responses he gets from !burgers were not what he'd hoped
Well Australia should send them back if true
I fully support the US deporting illegal immigrants and I fully support other countries deporting Americans who have overstayed their visa and are thus illegal immigrants, they violated the law, I have no issue with them being handcuffed while they're returned to the US
I don't think Americans care, many would probably enjoy seeing them get deported.
Deport them.
Do it. If they've overstayed visas and aren't legally allowed in Australia anymore they should be sent home.
Most Americans wouldn't have any sympathy for them doing something stupid and illegal.
Kick them out if they are illegal.
Well, those 5,000 are probably unhappy about America, so you can keep them, deport them, what ever you want. America doesn't care.
I think Trump would nt have a problem with it
No outcry from me, what's fair is fair. They made an agreement and violated it.

!macacos é pra gente sentir dó desse cara?
Porra, torrar 170k R$ como se ele estivesse fugindo do Afeganistão. Tem cada sem noção.
Also, if Lula was based he would deport illegal burger "expats" on cuffs, but instead he's going to at the UN like a cuck.
I hope Orange Man sends all those vira-latas back to the fatherland.

Every Brazilian I've known in America has been white for some reason, and I have never met a single white Mexican.
Probably because unlike the beaners, we can't just cross a border to get to your country, so most Brazilians who go there are middle class and tend to be white or castizos. If you go to a big city in northern Mexico or an upper class Mexican neighborhood, they'll probably be white too.
