The pair were named Eric and Hannah. They were designed to mimic people's body conditions when they kept watching too much TV in 20 years. /CFP

According to researchers, sitting before the screen for too long with a lack of exercise and a poor diet, people are likely to develop issues including premature aging, bald patches, bloodshot eyes, obesity, varicose veins, misshapen leg muscles, "dead-butt syndrome" as well as some psychological effects. /CFP

The study aimed to warn the danger of TV addictions, especially during the pandemic, when people stuck at homes had shown a tendency to spend plenty of time on streaming services. /CFP
