Everyone’s acting like they forced the boy to drink underage and an insane amount at that, both the people involved (the one who gave the kid booze and the kid himself) are in the wrong
Pretty sure he drank too much that he stopped breathing and the lack of oxygen left him blind, unable to speak, etc. normally when somebody references going blind due to alcohol, they’re referring to methanol as opposed to ethanol. Just 5% ethanol APV is enough to cause you to go permanently blind.
You can drink yourself dead. Given that fact? This was getting off lightly considering the sheer amount of alcohol involved. Never understood why the drinking age in the states is 21, in the UK its 18, we grow up drinking small amounts around our parents from about age 16 or so at functions or holidays and learn at least a measure of responsibility by seeing your parents demonstrating sensible drinking so by the time you turn 18 you at least have some idea. In the states you just turn 21 and get turned loose with a bunch of other clueless kids with zero guidance, Its nuts.

We've had some similar issues with hazing in Belgium. A student died, and the perpetrators of the hazing got a slap on the wrist (it's a 'high class' frat with rich kids so it's to be expected). What's worse is that their actions won't even go on their rap sheet, they got 0 repercussions in their long term life

he was a kid! you can't expect kids to make reasonable decisions especially in large group pressure scenarios, its basic psychology dude. Do you honestly expect an 18 year old to make good choices? no! frontal lobe development doesn't finish until mid 20s, so he physically did not have the capacity to think critically about his choices, not to mention the suck cost falacy where he already had to pay a lot of money just to be able to pledge. You walk out then, none of your new friends will talk to you and your money goes down the drain. Tired of the victim blaming for an innocent child.
If you want to know what’s wrong with American’s that’s easy. Americans are more concerned with looking good in front of others even if it means destroying others than they are about anything else. The ones who refuse to play the game usually end up as school/mass shooters.
@thebrainlessgoblin562. Imagine you have disabled son and now you are behind bars because you take it own hand. I assume it mean beating those kid. It just make the situation much worse.
Alcohol is technically a poison, so if you consume enough of it, your liver wont be able to filter it all out and you’ll have bad things happen. I was really lucky when I got into a short coma after binge drinking. I only came out with severe muscle weakness. Some people just arent as lucky.
❤ I feel for his parents. This poor child. I would explore suing the college. Where is the campus oversight of these immature fraternities? Hazing needs to be outlawed everywhere. (The brain is known to not fully mature until age 23-24, so essentially all these students/undergrads need guidance by staff with common sense, and oversight by college officials.) Never stop talking about this. Don't let the this college bury this tragedy. Colleges/universities often have buried such tragedies. The college regards cover-ups a matter of good P.R. and it has been policy for decades in essentially all campuses. Families: show this video to your children. This is not an isolated event.
As someone outside of America, can someone explain to me the genuine point and purpose of a frat house, they straight don't exist in other countries and for good reason

Wait. You can actually drink yourself blind? I always thought that was a joke
Pretty sure he drank too much that he stopped breathing and the lack of oxygen left him blind, unable to speak, etc. normally when somebody references going blind due to alcohol, they’re referring to methanol as opposed to ethanol. Just 5% ethanol APV is enough to cause you to go permanently blind.
You can drink yourself dead. Given that fact? This was getting off lightly considering the sheer amount of alcohol involved. Never understood why the drinking age in the states is 21, in the UK its 18, we grow up drinking small amounts around our parents from about age 16 or so at functions or holidays and learn at least a measure of responsibility by seeing your parents demonstrating sensible drinking so by the time you turn 18 you at least have some idea. In the states you just turn 21 and get turned loose with a bunch of other clueless kids with zero guidance, Its nuts.
If I were Daniel, I think I would tour universities explaining the dangers of frat pledging
Daniel can’t walk,talk or see
Bro, mf can't talk, walk, or see. How will he achieve this?
Helen Keller wrote a book and she couldn't talk,hear, or see. I thinkthe factor would be how much it has effected his cognitive abilities to think and process information
Pledge Father's daddy must have a really good lawyer
The kid made his own choices. Why anyone would be responsible for HIM drinking is beyond me.
nice pos comment dude. way to go bro!
@@Goreganacher Oh so who made him drink then? Who tied him up and forced liquor down his throat? Sounds like to me you can't take accountability for your actions.
@@GoreganacherWhat’s a pos comment?
@@Goreganacherhe was a grown man who made his own decisions
@@epicchocolate1866 and the decision to haze someone to the point of death?
That’s nobody fault but him self
We can all say he's not tough enough 🤷♀️🤷♀️
Me drinking more than that within 20 min on a Friday night 😭😭
😂😂 was thinking the same 😂😂
Sure bro you ain’t coming close
We need to reconsider the punishment for certain crimes
No. They didn't force him to drink. He can call it a quit if he want. That's on him though
@@xynt8195 You're arguing that the detriments of peer pressure are purely the fault of the peer who was pressured and not of the people who pressured the peer.
@@badgamedevreacts3855 So people chear you jump of building you do it? Do you even use bit of your brain?
Play stupid games win stupid prizes, kid should of known better than to be drinking it's his fault as well he isn't a victim
@@xynt8195 So you're saying that people cheering for somebody to jump off a building are good people who deserve no punishment for literally encouraging suicide???? So glad you're not in charge of anything in this world.
But seriously. You know better then to DRINK A FUCKING LITRE OF VODKA.
He might not have known how much it actually was. He was blindfolded and inebriated.
We've had some similar issues with hazing in Belgium. A student died, and the perpetrators of the hazing got a slap on the wrist (it's a 'high class' frat with rich kids so it's to be expected).
What's worse is that their actions won't even go on their rap sheet, they got 0 repercussions in their long term life
6 MONTHS???!!!! That family need to sue immediately and get everything that’s owed to them
We need to ban pledges in frat and women groups too
They’re called sororities.
6 MONTHS!?? The FRAT FATHER SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER, THEY ALMOST KILLED HIM! The FRAT FATHER SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH ATTEMPTED MANSLAUGHTER!! SHAME ON HIM!! 🤬
I am shocked that this hazing RUINED this poor freshman's life as he knew it. 🥹 My sympathy goes out to Daniel and his family. 😢
Nobody forces people to go through this, he stayed and played stupid games... I've been there, only difference is I'm not a tomato
Bro who’s the idiot who said yes?
He joined the frat, it’s not like it was peer pressure either.
@Mythical4227 For real, everyone wants the leader nailed to the cross and it's nobody's fault the intiate wanted to be a superhero and ended up a superzero. Plus frat dad's are usually like 30 ish, all they know is first aid and how to survive a night with the boys. So how do you blame the most responsible one there?😂
HE shoulda known better. yeah the frat guys shoulda too but they prolly do this all the time and its fine. its not their fault he dosent know his own limits
Lucky to be alive? “Blind, unable to talk, will never walk again.” I think that’s a fate worse than death, dude.
The people who thought this amount of alcohol was ok are too stupid to go to college but should pay money to Daniel for the rest of their lives to support him as he would have been able to live before they tried to kill him.
He did it to himself. Don’t give into the collage frat bullshit yall. Them people don’t care about you. As a matter of fact don’t waste your money on a collage period.
I agreed until you said don't go to college. You want doctors with no proper education? College has proven to result in higher income as well.
@austinhernandez2716 evidently these people don't need to be cheating becoming doctors in the first place. I'm sure these guys are going for some real important stuff such as "sports" 💀
I won’t waste waste my money on a collAge like you said. They use up too many magazines. However, collEge is definitely worth spending money on
@@austinhernandez2716 higher debt you mean. Student loans start you out with debt in life. Being a doctor is one of the only valid professions that need doctors. The rest can go to trade school. And good luck finding a high paying job in your field with no prior work experience. Collage sets 20 year old kids up for failure and brain washes them as well
Guy wants to work a minimum wage job for 20 years.
all the people who tell you to join a frat for the “benefits” are stupid. you’re paying for friends
Why do people actively want to participate in something that can harm them?
Colleges: “Oh no hazing doesn’t happen anymore.”
The frat bishes:
I'm sorry but...play stupid games win stupid prizes.
True
Luckily he's the smart one
Did he at least get accepted into the fraternity?
he was a kid! you can't expect kids to make reasonable decisions especially in large group pressure scenarios, its basic psychology dude. Do you honestly expect an 18 year old to make good choices? no! frontal lobe development doesn't finish until mid 20s, so he physically did not have the capacity to think critically about his choices, not to mention the suck cost falacy where he already had to pay a lot of money just to be able to pledge. You walk out then, none of your new friends will talk to you and your money goes down the drain. Tired of the victim blaming for an innocent child.
@@erickmejia1643 20 yrld kid, yeah.
Definitely not adult who can walk, still need diapers change regularly
How the fuck is this a misdemeanor
Don't be peer pressured into doing something harmful, whether it be to yourself or others, no amount of "clout" is worth it. 😢
Joining a frat is always a bad idea no matter what. Anything that has any form of hazing is always something to avoid
The fact that "hazing" is a separate crime shows you how different the law is for them, if they weren't rich this wouldve been manslaughter
He isnt lucky to be alive
If you go through hazing it means you are a spineless pawn
It's really sad that he made those choices to drink so much.
First the school shootings and now this? Wtf is wrong with the USA?
You say it like either of those things are new. I'm pretty sure hazing got popular before school shootings too
If you want to know what’s wrong with American’s that’s easy. Americans are more concerned with looking good in front of others even if it means destroying others than they are about anything else. The ones who refuse to play the game usually end up as school/mass shooters.
“initiation is killing urself with a lethal amount of alcohol”
this full time student - “YA I GOTCHU DADDY” 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 play stupid games win stupid prizes
They should show this to all in coming college students
misdemeanor hazing is crazy. If I was the parents I wouldve taken it into my own hands 100%
Parents should've raised their kid better. He chose to be apart of the Frat and drink the alcohol.
Action to your own hand? You already had disabled kid and want spend you life in bar instead? Do you even use your brain?
He’s a grown man lmao, parents have no right to step in. He knew what he was getting himself into
Dude was literally an adult and willingly chose to drink 1L of vodka. Who tf are you mad at?
@thebrainlessgoblin562. Imagine you have disabled son and now you are behind bars because you take it own hand. I assume it mean beating those kid. It just make the situation much worse.
It's his own fault. No one forced him to drink. He willing participated to get accepted
listen here queer, it was frat party pledge, every new member was forced to drink 1 liter of vodka
I wish I could dislike your comment twice
So he ruins a 19 year olds life who could have easily lived atleast 30 more years and all he gets is 6 months?
I need way more context than this does anyone have any links to articles written about this?
One frat made a guy a dude i inew drink a gallon of water and he died
That’s impossible it had to be more the human body can process 5-7 gallons of water a day
I agree but was it in one sitting no air or something??
Wow those kids and everyone involved in the hazing.Need to be locked up for way longer than six months
I might sound dumb, but how did he go blind and paralyzed? was the alcohol really that strong enough to cause all that damage?
@@JustAnAverageJoe12yep, he drank like a whole bottle and was forced it down his throat. Too much alchol can mess you up badly.
Why? Nobody forced him to drink. If I tell you to rob a bank should I get punished if you actually do it?
@@edgysnarfbrownie5778 yes because you are an accessory to robbery.
They all want to be like Steve will do it not realizing off camera Steve goes and throws up after doing it.
Justice ? You raised him to be an idiot who's fault is that?
I didnt know alcohol could do that
Yes alcohol can kill you literally too much water can kill you moral of the story too much of anything can kill you
Alcohol is technically a poison, so if you consume enough of it, your liver wont be able to filter it all out and you’ll have bad things happen.
I was really lucky when I got into a short coma after binge drinking. I only came out with severe muscle weakness. Some people just arent as lucky.
Then you probably shouldn't drink.
@@fkUTube449 lmao
Are you serious? 🤦🏽
Parents should be charged for letting their child join a frat.
He's in college not living at home and an adult. They have literally no control on what he does.
Cringe comment tbh
I left a frat because I was LP and almost got shot. It was literally the worst decision of my life to join that waste of space
❤ I feel for his parents. This poor child. I would explore suing the college. Where is the campus oversight of these immature fraternities? Hazing needs to be outlawed everywhere. (The brain is known to not fully mature until age 23-24, so essentially all these students/undergrads need guidance by staff with common sense, and oversight by college officials.) Never stop talking about this. Don't let the this college bury this tragedy. Colleges/universities often have buried such tragedies. The college regards cover-ups a matter of good P.R. and it has been policy for decades in essentially all campuses. Families: show this video to your children. This is not an isolated event.
Just being so powerless in a situation where you can't even say no is so scary
It's not like they were going to shoot him
I wouldn't say he's lucky to be alive. I'd rather be dead than "live" like that.
Dude just kill me if that happens to me
Chose to do it himself.
Wow , that was pretty dumb , whatever
He also shares some responsibility for drinking that much in the first place. Just make smart choices.
So sad to see how far people are willing to be in fraternities. Im happy to never join one.
How is that man only getting 6 months ? What is wrong with this!
He didn’t make the guy pledge and he didn’t make the guy drink the vodka. Any reasonable human knows a LITER of. Straight vodka is idiot move
If I tell you to drink bleach and you do it, then I should not be in trouble as it is you that messed up. 6 months is stupid.
@@krashdummiez007still very much so not normally a health problem amount tho
His sister bad tho
😨😨😨
Darkness
Imprisoning me
I cannot see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Living my life in hell
Hes not lucky to be alive tf?? Hes trapped in a living hell far worse than the peace of death.
Womp womp bitches....
It's just vodka...
Parents can always get another frat fucker in 18 yrs
What the fuck
What??
Man you’re awful.
Bro I’m genuinely concerned for you
I hope this is rage bait
A liter of vodka in an hour?????
Who thinks they can drink a liter in an hour, half these kids probably can’t stomach that much water in an hour
All of them should have to pay him for the rest of his life.
As someone outside of America, can someone explain to me the genuine point and purpose of a frat house, they straight don't exist in other countries and for good reason
Id assume he was also blind before because somebody said "drink a liter of vodka" and he didnt see anything wrong with that
He was blindfolded. They probably didn’t tell him how big the bottle was.
