What stories have you heard?

All, including this one, must have included copious amounts of alcohol.

Now see, this is exactly what the NHS should refuse to treat. Numbskull's like this, should have to pay privately.

The one about the kid who died after being made to drink loads from his shoe on a sports social.

Fifteen university students have been permanently scarred after branding themselves with heated coat hangers.

The group from the University of Exeter branded their chests with the initial of the halls they lived in last year.
A reshaped metal coat hanger was heated on a stove before being pressed against the participants' flesh for 10 seconds.

Following the private house party last month, three of the branded students were treated in hospital and given antibiotics to fight infections.

A burns specialist has warned the students will have permanent scarring.

Did this 'specialist' not appreciate that was perhaps the point?

Just what this thread needed: a half-baked, wishy-washy nonsense suggestion.

People do stupid things regularly. What's the point of this thread and the countless others on this very topic?

lol, self-owned.

At least these "daredevils" have upheld their rep lol

I have done some stupid stuff when drunk, but you would need to be on some pretty effective drugs to think this was a good idea

I remember a kid I knew doing something like that...his friends proceeded to poke lemon juice, tcp and salt onto the burn...they thought they were being cruel...infact they were doing their part to stop their friend getting an infection :h:

although anyone stupid enough to think you can do something like that and have it be not stupid because you used tcp...don't just don't
Pretty stupid thing to do to be honest but what do they expect?...hey let's burn ourselves...that's not going to do any damage at all!
