Kolina Hocevar period 5 drinking game deadly

"Thanks for the nomination Luke," jokes a young man in a YouTube clip pouring what he says is a new, unopened bottle of Sambuca spirits into a pint glass along with another, unidentified drink. As the liquids mix, he observes: "And that is congealing nicely ... whew ... okay," before knocking back the potion.The game, known as Neknominate, is thought to have originated in Australia and is now sweeping the world. It involves you filming yourself downing a drink -- often alcoholic and of large quantities -- and then nominating a friend to outdo you. All this is posted on social media -- be it Facebook or YouTube. "This is a lethal game," Dr. Sarah Jarvis, medical adviser for the UK-based charity Drinkaware, told CNN. "The point about alcohol is that it affects your ability to recognize that you're in danger, and it absolutely affects your ability to react to danger. So we have a double whammy." "This is a lethal game," Dr. Sarah Jarvis, medical adviser for the UK-based charity Drinkaware, told CNN.

This is very depressing how young people can abuse abuse. Alcohol is bad for you especially underage. Many young people abuse alcohol we need to raise awareness to people.

  1. I agree. Underage drinking has been overdone to a point of risk. Sadly, prohibition is not an option.

  2. If only kids could exercise a little bit of control. What is appealing about almost killing yourself?
