此挑戰完成後通常會導致二級灼傷[7][10]有一個來自肯塔基州的青少年參加挑戰,挑戰後表示挑戰後的疼痛"無法忍受"。[11][12]

除了明顯的灼傷危險之外,許多挑戰者不澆熄火焰但周圍亂跑,周圍的氧令火勢更容易蔓延。[13] 另一個危險是挑戰者吸入過熱的空氣而損害肺部[13]

赫芬頓郵報這樣回應:

"我們基本上說不出話來。雖我們曾與吃燈泡的人聊天,但我們仍然感到震驚。這些人都是訓練有素的專業表演,但這似乎是一個被誤導的青年。最可怕的是,他不是唯一這樣做的人。"

"We're basically speechless. We hang out with guys who eat lightbulbs, and we're still shocked. Granted, those guys are trained professional performers, where as this appears to be a misguided youth. The scariest part is that he's not the only person who is doing this."

凱特琳杜威向華盛頓郵報指出:

"YouTube上有已知的危險、破壞性的和不明智的趨勢,但即使是規範,「火燒身挑戰」 達到新低點。"

"YouTube has known its fair share of dangerous, destructive and ill-advised trends, but even by those standards, the "fire challenge" hits new lows." [14]



多個當地和國家消防部門都表示反對火燒身挑戰,火燒身挑戰往往引來重大的和損害和不可預測性的火災。[15][16][17]
