A bizarre reaction from a teacher to a student collapsing while standing as punishment has ignited controversy.
The sudden death of a 16-year-old male student has become a hot topic across Chinese social media platforms.
Reportedly, in Hebei, China, the student lost consciousness and passed away during a physics class in March last year after being asked to stand as punishment for breaking the rules.
The released CCTV footage shows the student collapsing on the floor after enduring 20 minutes of standing.
The male student had a severe seizure, but the physics teacher continued with the class without intervening.

Only after a while did the physics teacher call the student’s homeroom teacher for assistance in moving the boy.
Upon hearing the news, the homeroom teacher urgently called for an ambulance for the student to receive treatment at a hospital. However, it reportedly took 40 minutes for the student to be transported.
Doctors later confirmed that the student tragically died because he did not receive treatment in time.
The student’s family expressed on social media, “His friends came to check on him. Only the teacher showed no concern. My family and I strongly condemn the teacher’s irresponsible behavior.”

The student’s father added, “My son was healthy. He had no underlying conditions and went to school as usual that morning.”
Following the incident, local police announced they were conducting investigations and collecting evidence.
The teacher’s responsibility will depend on the results of the police investigation. It could be due to the teacher’s lack of awareness and ability to provide emergency treatment or because the teacher was completely unaware that the student was in danger and failed to act.
News of the incident has triggered widespread outrage among parents on social media, denouncing the physics teacher’s negligence.
