I actually did partake, as a 90's kid, but I didn't know how dangerous it could be. To us, it was a harmless game the older kids had played in their time. I tried Googling this at the time but the information on it was scarce. The Wikipedia article has fleshed out since then to include some risks, and links to asphyxiation for a more thorough analysis. We had no idea why it happened at the time.

We had no idea why it happened at the time. You mean you didn't know why the game induced a loss of consciousness? Or are you referring to the mystery of the emergent social phenomenon, for why information got around via word of mouth, and kids were discovering the game? You have no idea "what" happened? What do you mean?
