New Delhi: A new online challenge involving taking a selfie with cockroaches on your face is spreading across the Internet. It was started by a Facebook user Alex Aung from Myanmar. The teenager posted a photo with a cockroach on his face on April 20, 2019 and asked others if they could also do something similar.

Following Alex Aung's post, many youngsters accepted the challenge and started posting their own pictures with cockroaches, with some even putting the pest inside their mouth.
