It started as a prank on each other before it ended tragically when one of them died in a fire at a public toilet in Bandar Puncak Alam on Sunday (28 August)
According to Malay Mail, Selangor Fire and Rescue Department (JBPM) director Norazam Khamis stated that they got a call at around 2:35 pm before dispatching the fire unit to the scene.
When the team arrived, they saw that the fire had been put out and also discovered a body of a young 16-year-old boy, Muhammad Damin Mikhail.

“We then removed the victim’s body. The body was then handed over to the police for further investigation,” he said in a statement.
The victim’s two friends were playing a mobile game in the toilet while he was sleeping on a sofa in front of the toilet door. One of his friends thought it would be funny to light a fire under the sofa as a prank, but the fire got bigger and smoke filled the toilet forcing them to run out of the toilet.
“The victim woke up in a semi-conscious state and ran into the toilet,” he added.
Guys, please remember that pranks that are in their limits are fun but when they cross the limits, they can be very dangerous!
Don’t place your friend in a dangerous situation in order to prank them!
