Haven't got a clue, his video is as dark as hell. And he just drinks it from the bottle, so I'm pretty sure he didn't drink a pint.

yah a lad from carlow :/ he jumped into the river after it or something was found this morning and brought to my local hospital :( agh poor lad, especially since we've had weather warnings and he went and did that

The amount of peer pressure on my Facebook wall is astounding.

The problem isn't really the game itself in my opinion it's the fact that people want to go one better than the last one, get more likes etc. Some are funny, a friends friend for example went on a wrecking ball like thing in a park with wrecking ball being played, someone did the lazy song with monkey masks.

Some people just take it too far though. I read some have drank stuff like oils. While I think it's bad that some might be peer pressured into doing it, a lot of the people doing the dangerous stuff seem to know what their doing and just aren't thinking.

Oh and someone I work with did a sick one where basically he added drink with a load of crap into a blender. I'm talking about a tin of tuna, Reggae Reggae Sauce, a tin of soup, a load of spices, a full egg still in its shell etc. Knocked it all back in one go without gagging even though it tasted rank. I would have lost at the smell of it

At uni I heard someone talking about a guy that added crap to his protein shake for a neck nomination, And when I say crap, I mean actual faeces.

Yeah I've heard of someone who just put **** in if and drank it or I've seen a naked guy in a barn with cows surrounding him and pissing into a glass and drinking it...

When they start competing and taking it over the top and mixing god knows what it gets silly and dangerous compared to just a few simple drinks.

IMHO if you're going to do this and end up needing treatment at hospital, you deserve to be billed for it.

I had never heard of it, and then a week after this thread was posted it exploded all over my Facebook News Feed. I've not seen videos, but status', so I've been going around commenting 'a guy died from that'. We all know that it's probably not true, but the media will do anything to associate students with irresponsible drinking which is so stupid - we're not all like that. >.<

Can't you just down a glass of water and say it's vodka if you want to look cool
