TWO SOUTH CAROLINA TEENS PASS AWAY AFTER JUMPING FROM A BRIDGE ON A DARE CHALLENGE. (PHOTO).


 Two South Carolina teens pass away after jumping from a bridge on a dare.


16-year-old Rayan Al-Nasser and 15-year-old Zakaria Chaar, both sophomores at D.W Daniel High, have been identified as the victims in a heartbreaking incident which occurred Saturday night.


According to officials, the two were part of a group chat where students were daring each other to jump from the Twelve Mile River Bridge.


Eventually the group met up to make good on the dare however things quickly went bad.

According to reports the first teen landed awkwardly when he jumped from the bridge and immediately went into distress.  Upon seeing his friend in distress the second teen jumped in to try and rescue his friend.


Sadly both boys disappeared under the surface of the water presumably being pulled under by the current. The two never surfaced. Another teen at the scene called 911 at around 10:28 pm. Although first responders were on scene in minutes, the boys were not recovered until Monday. 


They were found 8 feet apart in 15 foot deep water. 

There has been no clarification on which teen jumped first and which teen tried to save him.

Our thoughts are with the families and the community as a whole.
