"Hopefully it's cap, I'm not a Football acc but my fyp is full of football vids and I love them," said a TikTok user.
But, all the viral videos only provide the caption "March 7," which is accompanied by a sad face or broken heart emoji.
TikTok March 7 Event: Dangerous Stunts No Longer Allowed?
The rumors about the dangerous stunt content ban on TikTok might be true since the social media giant already provided the upcoming changes in its Community Guidelines.

TikTok said that these adjustments would be implemented starting on March 7. If you visit the official TikTok Community Guidelines changes, you will see that there's a section about dangerous acts and challenges.
The video platform said that it would soon prohibit videos or accounts that contain activities that can harm people. These include dangerous challenges and amateur stunts.
However, professional soccer players and other athletes seem to be safe since TikTok only refers to the dangerous acts conducted by non-professionals.
Will Soccer Accounts Be Banned?
Distractify reported that TikTok hadn't confirmed yet if the new Community Guidelines changes regarding stunts also cover the accounts of professional soccer players.
But, some rumors claimed that dangerous stunts were not the only reasons that soccer accounts would be prohibited. They claimed that copyright issues could also play a major role on March 7.
However, this issue is still unclear. Right now, the best thing you can do as a TikTok user is to wait for the platform's official announcements.
In other news, TikTok users who were posting content containing animal cruelty are now banned from having pets. Meanwhile, the new TikTok 10-minute video enhancement has been rolled out.
