There comes a time in life when we must all step up and accept a friend’s stupid dare.

These two guys have challenged each other to lick an electric fly-swatter.

The 53-second clip opens with a group of mates laughing outside as one man sticks his tongue out just inches away from the device.

‘Just do it,’ one guy is heard saying. ‘This is bad. Make it quick.’

He leans in – a crackle is heard – and he jolts back from the shock.
