Bradley Eames mixed gin with tea bags, bragging 'This is how you drink' before consuming the concoction that was the equivalent of taking 30 shots.

This is why I stay away from tea.

Looks like a bottle of Tanqueray.

...and then we die.

Oh well, sometimes good taste and bad choices go hand in hand.

Now there’s someone who was looking for a Darwin award. And may get it.

I like drinking alcohol as much as the next guy but having contests to see who can drink the most is just stupid.

NekNominate is not causing the deaths. People freely choosing to drink a poisonous quantity of alcohol is causing the deaths. They deserve no sympathy.

What is this anglo-saxon cultural thing about alcohol? Why is is considered fun to lose contact with reality? To get stoned, smashed, soused, etc etc.

One less idiot!
