- Danny Santulli is unable to walk, talk or see after members of the University of Missouri's Phi Gamma Delta chapter allegedly pressured him to finish an entire bottle of vodka. Eight months later his mom, Mary Pat Santulli, quit her banking job to take care of Danny full time. Extraordinary video footage of the night Danny was paralyzed was released to Inside Edition by the family's lawyer, shows the tragic timeline of the incident.
remember everyone: a high alcohol tolerance isn’t a badge of honor, it’s a problem.
Exactly. I’m 25 and can barely handle 2 shots but I’m proud about it 😌
@@annies6566 People would call you a lightweight but it's not an insult or joke. I was a girl who laughed once. Watch who is pouring your drink. Take time between your drinks, drink water.
When I was younger- being able to drink a lot seemed so cool to me. "Oh you can't drink anymore? Cmon wussy". I took the jokes too seriously when my friends probably cared more for my health. Also, it's so easy to indulge in the vibe (and addiction/temptation). Feel like I intrinsically knew/felt the damage but I made excuses to take it further. Bad ideas! Better way to make memories.
I know no one asked + L + ratio but hopefully some random gets some insight from this. What a terrible incident for Danny and his family :( i don't think anyone else is to blame though. I imagine no one at that college would have thought/hoped this would have happened to him.
Exactly. Alcohol is a drug like all the others. I’m 22 I had to quit. Only 124 pounds & could drink like u never seem cuz I was an alcoholic drinking everyday. Glad to say I’ll never drink again
This is very true statement
We live in a society that glorifies alcohol abuse. That is a huge factor in these kind of tragedies.
Or maybe be independent and smart , I have a lot of Friends who drink heavy when they party and I never ever drink not even a sip , even when they used to pressure me , this kid was raised weak
@@Angel-ku5vq yep
@@Angel-ku5vq True. He could’ve called it quits w/ the fraternity. Yeah, he probably laid down a lot of money for the process of “crossing”, but was it really worth his life? People have freedom to decide, and Darwinism dictates weakness be culled. This is nothing more than textbook actions: put self in dangerous position, suffers the consequences when things flop…literally, haha. I pity him. I’m sad for him and his family, and I honestly feel the others also had some responsibility to look out for their fellow Americans, but again, at the end of the day, they chose their path, and this was the risk. How sad.
he deserved it who cares it nots a tragedy he shouldve been more cautious its only his fault
We live in a society.
"Unable to walk, talk, or see"
Dude at this point why not just let him go, the man is probably screaming inside
Thats what im thinking
sad thing is i don't think there's much inside anyways. he had severe brain damage so a lot of him is gone
A fate worse then death.
That’s what I was thinking, I couldn’t imagine living the rest of your life trapped inside your mind and body like that 😞 I seriously hope that university and anyone involved is held accountable
yeah that's what I'm thinking too, just imagine how much he wants his family to end his suffering but he has no way to get the message across, brutal
I’m a part of a fraternity and we never forced the use of alcohol in any event. It’s incredibly irresponsible.
Whole concept of fraternity is soo stupid ...need iq in negative to join such things
W man
Very good. Keep people safe, first.
maybe just not forcing a 130lb stick to drink an entire bottle of vodka, and you do realize this was his decision?, not if the frat forced him to stay and drink it that’s a whole different situation
What kind of fraternity is this 😂😭 Saint Simon and Jude
It’s horrible to think that a single decision can lead to a lifetime of suffering.
This i can agree
Yep even the small ones that we don't think of, something so small as not tying your shoe lace and tripping down a flight of stairs could ruin your life, little stuff can be so dangerous it crazy
College where you have and know where people do dumb things. This is America welcome to it nothing is gonna change. Hope all you young who read this have children so they could experience the stupidity of the world while you attempt to protect them from everything.
I KNOW THE MAMA IS GONNA LOVE THAT INSURANCE MONEY she even looked off to the side lol
This was definitely a chain of decisions
I've never understood why the hell these rituals in college were ever acceptable. It's bullying and destructive.
Why would colleges care? It’s about money
Seems like you have described any system of power 😅
Bullying??? He drank to much ya dork
All part of the life scam your trying to get out of
@@LL-LLLL9 I stopped drinking even before I got to college. Had no interest in joining any of them either, hanging out with dumbasses isn’t really my thing. I saved a whole bunch of money not drinking which I instead used to go abroad after every semester and graduated with no regrets in that regard.
Anyone who pressures you to drink that much alcohol isn’t a friend.
So sad and haunting how he was blindfolded during his last moments of sight.
bro was not drunk out of his mind there, if he was pass out drunk he wouldnt make down the stairs
@@saramorin4792 🤓☝
He was already drunk with thos body and was drinking more. dont be dumb @saramorin4792
This is really sad. People need to be aware of the dangers of alcohol abuse. It’s important to teach people to say No and not give into peer pressure. The whole culture of fraternities and hazing is messed up.
True. Till this day I have sworn to stay away from alcohol, I dont care if people call me boring or not.
@@maiden5427 very wise 👍
@@maiden5427 extremes always lead to silly problems. Alcohol is easy to moderate and almost never a problem until you make it one. These men set out to make it one.
@@jisezer exactly
lolololo
The fraternity and university need to be held criminally liable.
University allows these bad behavior so they could get more students to come in .This is all too common among universities. This kind of behavior should be not acceptable in an educational system.
Frat culture itself needs to be held accountable
he did it to himself and now trying to put the blame on someone else its too common these days. I was in college but I never drank just a few beers and I did go to a party school UCSB
But did he get in
@@blanca2000ify at a certain point at drinking you lose control.
At this point anyone giving you more alcohol without consent is a crime.
im nauseous just imagining being in this situation. deep condolences
It's too bad that the doctors were able to revive him because now he has to live the rest of his life like that and his mom had to quit her job to take care of him full time
Never feel pressured to be part of something especially if you know it’s something harmful

If any “fraternity” requires you put your life in danger as a “test of loyalty”, they do NOT have your best interest in mind.
HE drank to much if you think that is anyones fault but his own you might be a bit of an air head
@@lockethomas7165 It is the fraternity's fault for pressuring Danny to drink an unhealthy amount of alcohol. If you think otherwise, you're just as bad as the fraternity.
It's called a "cult"
They dropped him on his head probably what killed him.
@@lockethomas7165 Anyone who suggests finishing of that amount of vodka during one night is obviously way beyond an airhead
Shoutout to the guys who actually checked his pulse and made sure to get him to a hospital. They were also probably very drunk but knew what to do. Even if they contributed to it, they knew when it wasn’t fun and games anymore
I’m 21, finishing up college. Was at a hall of residence in 1st year where obviously there’s booze everywhere and even in the “non alcoholic building” it was quietly rampant. I refused to give in to peer pressure and play drinking games, which truly is just a euphemism for alcohol abuse. I hardly drink now. I used to a lot then but after a scary experience of lacking control after 6 well-filled glasses of wine within two hours I decided to give drinking up. I’ve never been fully drunk but just seriously tipsy. Always have water and food with alcohol. It’s so sad that young students glorify drinking and voluntarily abuse their bodies for the sake of “fitting in”. I feel amazing, but it’s sad that people admire you for saying you don’t drink only to subtly build peer pressure and ridicule you if you don’t participate. But if that happens then you’re hanging out with the wrong people. Your body is your temple guys (I know it sounds kinda tacky but it’s true), you’ve only got one.
Only the least intelligent people in society glorify drinking....
They get what they deserve....
Save your empathy and sympathy for actual victims..
I’m so sorry for this young man. We have to teach our kids values over fitting in. Because trying to fit in has devastated too many to count.
He was just having fun not fitting in
@@abdulcisse4381 I guess you don't know how fraternities work.
@@thenormalberries6767 no not really
@@thenormalberries6767 u sound experienced, care to share how it works?
No one is to blame besides the kid though. He chose to finish the bottle by the end of the night. No one forced him.
This happens all the time. When I was in college this exact thing happened only the guy died, never woke up the next morning. College kids have no idea how destructive alcohol is.
Omg!
No lie, bozos think they can just sleep it off
It needs to stop. Hazing and alcohol abuse should be done and over with.
I graduated HS back in 05. and all this crazies been going since before me. haha. it's only getting more wild with these new idiot generation.
did u miss the part where he was dropped on his head an thats how he ended up like this
This is why it's important to teach your children about critical thinking and independent thought. I hope my children would look at this situation and say nope.
Wow I can’t imagine just having so many abilities just stripped away from you. I wish him and his family the best going forward.
I can’t imagine what Danny is thinking, just living in a shell of himself for the rest of his life. This is heartbreaking and everyone that made him do this needs to be held accountable to the fullest extent.
No one made him do it, he is a big kid now. He makes his own choices and he chose to drink like that. He didn't have a gun to his head being told to drink all of that. He made a bad choice and now he has to live with it.
@@williamsnowball4267 exactly
@@williamsnowball4267 He was a teenage boy in college who drank like almost every other teenager. I doubt he realized that much vodka could kill him. Most people actually DON'T know that overdrinking like that on your first few goes can kill you. This isn't a "bad choice he has to live with," it's a horrific accident. Lots of people drink and this doesn't happen to them.
@@williamsnowball4267 he chose to be in a fraternity not to end up brain damaged it makes me sick people put the blame on him .Once you said you want to be part of the brotherhood it is very complicated to backtrack they won t let you and they coerce you in to doing these stupid things
@@mariea.8100 it should be common sense to not chuck a whole bottle of vodka on the first go, he probably felt terrible going through just one sip but keep pushing. This is sure tragic but still his fault.
Yeah a highschool student that went to my school was allergic to alcohol. They slipped some vodka into her orange juice and she was completely unaware. She became very intoxicated and drowned in her own vomit cause no one checked on her. She died of suffocation and multiple organ failure. Things like this shouldn't be taken lightly and charges to the full extent of the law should apply to anyone involved.
Did the people get charged who spiked her drink?
This is not a case of someone spiking a drink though. Don’t compare a crime to a situation where a kid consented before consuming the alcohol
@@tecumsehdc hazing is literally a crime. One did not consent, the other was pressured by a community, both didn't know the danger, both (almost) died from negligence and for the entertainment of the other party.
But I guess it makes you look more like a tough guy when you can judge someone behind a screen and tell yourself you wouldn't be in his situation.
@@tecumsehdc you're right this is much worse
@@tecumsehdc also this is a crime and I can compare it
I really don’t know how they think this is “cool” and this is the type of things they make someone do to be apart of a frat club!! Disgusting they definitely need to be punished!!
I’m so sorry of everyone here mostly Danny. His whole life senselessly ruined.Just aweful. Needs to end. Prayers for your family especially Danny🙏
Anyone who pressures you to drink alcohol is sadistic.
They don’t care about you.
And a POS.
Yup, im a regular drinker but pressuring someone to drink is disgusting.
It was his choise
He could have said "no"
@@dereinzigwahrenico8156 ya ever heard of peer pressure
Shut up and have a beer.
When I was growing up, my parents drilled into my head "Be careful who you hang around with". That advice has served me well for many years.
If you run with the dogs sooner or later you're going to start to bark lol
@@pennywiseballoon4646exactly, my grandma said the same thing ! His parents failed him !
same either this kids parents never lectured him or he was just ignorant to their advice and thought a cringey frat was more important than his life
Even God advises that. Lol
Exactly. Very important! As much as I feel sorry for him, I still think he would have avoided this. Or at least get rid of the alcohol. The urge to belong sometimes is what really kills
I am in a fraternity and hazing is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN. I am very happy I joined because of the fun activities and fundraisers we do together and it is a safe space to just spend time with the boys. It is disgusting to see these kids leave a pledge OBVIOUSLY in critical condition unsupervised without help. And in the first place, letting it get to that point is unacceptable. Although everyone should know their drinking limits, it is also a responsibility of upper years and older brothers to keep a look out for their less experienced friends. What an awful, tragic event. I am so sorry to the family.
stop protecting frats LIAM go join freemasons or something the world is waking up to these bas tards.
lol sure
@@boobenshnozle691shut up
Yeah, what you were told to day....
Wow! I was not expecting those results! That’s extremely sad!
Fraternities won't do you good, fraternities would lead you to bad things. I joined a frat in my college days and it was my most regrettable decision I've ever had.
explain, i’m about to go to college and i’m on the edge about joining. i already drink about everyday tho
what's a frat ?
@@slipperylatex872 a simple explanation, mate a frat is a bad influence. Go fight him, go fight them, maim him, maim them. Though forming brotherhood but it teaches you to not to be an independent person and keep on relying on someone.
When I tried to join, I asked them “what do you guys stand for? Or simply, what do you guys do?” No one gave me an exact answer and only talking about socializing, building community bonds, this and that, I decided not to join any.
@@slipperylatex872 just find your own "brothers" and form your own group
This also happend in the Netherlands. A boy died.... You don't need to be part of a fraternity... just make your own friends.

Exactly plus you’re technically paying for friends

When they asked me to join a frat I told them I’m already a part of Phi Beta Me
lolololol
Thank you, for reporting.
This is horrible! Praying for Danny and his family 💔💔
NEVER let anyone peer pressure you into doing ANYTHING, your life is significantly more valuable than looking "cool" or fitting in.

I'm a freshman in college and glad my parents always had a talk with me about these stupid and harmful things that happen in college. I don't even go to college parties and in the very few ones I've been to, I never felt peer pressured. Fortunately I can strongly say no and no one can budge me from my decision to not drink
👏👏👏
Keep strong!!
Keep it up 👍🏻
High school and college means nothing.. its just a small part of ur memories. Just get passed it safe.
Well you don't have to be a lame-ass either
That's the power of trying to fit in and be accepted. Learn to follow your own path in life.
😢just so sad. My heart breaks for that family.
My mom's worst nightmare when I went to college was exactly this: me being desperate to fit in and doing insane things to make it happen. I have never even been tempted. I'd choose a bit of loneliness anytime over endangering my life.
is this a trend? if it is, wtf?
@@uriel6018 fraternities? Yes. Very much a trend alot of students feel the need to join one as soon as they get into college.
True. But its important to make sure the teens actually realize the risk of both death AND and lifelong handicaps for doing things like this. I think the risk of getting crippled for life should deter just about anyone. If someone still does it after that, regardless of peer pressure (unless outright threatened/forced), they're just being an idiot and got no excuse. But its still a punishment more than they deserve.

They were all drunk.
Just shows you can't trust most people. So freaking sad to see this happening. God bless you young man. You deserved better!!!
he deserves better b/c he was a spineless little loser? lmao... I feel sorry for your family for having someone like you who clearly has notion about taking accountability
@You can trust most people. It's when they become a group when you can no longer be so trustful. A single person is almost all the time trustworthy when you build up your relationship. A group can have high tendencies to abuse, use, and treat you like a bag of garbage and won't even mourn for your death. It's not just fraternities or sororities. Even religious groups ironically often treat their members like tools. Like Mormons and JW's. When you become a member, your goal now is to preach and find new members. They don't care about you as an individual.
There was an 80s Vietnam movie called Platoon. I thought it was cool how they separated units in camp between William Defoes unit which was laid back, not racist, cool and weed smokers. Then there was the hard ass, alcoholic, racist group that everyone was miserable in. Crazy to think this is still true today and powers that be that keep it that way.
He has internet and is a university student. Could have resisted peer pressure. Even Russians don't drink a while bottle of undiluted vodka. I wish his family should not try to ruin another students life.
Can't trust who the kid who drank a bottle lol
I go to the university of Missouri. This is so common it’s ridiculous. I know about 5 people that have died of drug overdoses. I heard about this case but it was like last year. Sadly this is just one of many. That poor guy
This still happens. Why? I am genuinely curious not only why this happens but how everyone just gets away with it all?

@@KennyMcCormick5467 I know you're trolling, but in his case living seems to be a lifetime of misery. Your trolling needs work buddy.
@@nathanwilliams4005 Don't bother giving him/her attention, he/she most probably has a poor self-image and tries to suppress it by being malicious and welcoming other's pain. He/she doesn't have any good purposes .
It’s so wild that they continued their hazing ritual despite cameras. To me, that means they knew there wouldn’t be repercussions (or none severe enough). I’m sure this isn’t the first party the frat has had there, and I know alcohol consumption on campus is against many university policies (people of course still do it) so you’d think that alone would warrant some type of action from administration.
It's kind of sad that the family takes no responsibility for their sons actions. Like you have to have enough wits about yourself to walk away if that's what it takes to get into the fraternity bro, smh.
Exactly
Poor Danny ❤️ My heart breaks for his family 👪 💔

Exactly. And the chapter isn't closed until the criminals pay and the victims get justice.
I agree. They should be held accountable. Negligent carelessness that pretty much cost that young man his life. What kinda life can he lead now. They too everything from him and I think they should be held accountable for it

My God. I didn’t even know fraternity’s still hazed. You have got to teach your child to not engage in peer pressure and never be afraid to GET UP AND LEAVE!!
Edit: feel the need to add that I am not trying to take away from the tragedy that occurred. It really is heart breaking what happened to him. The “my God” was more a “my heart breaks to hear that” my God. As a mother and teacher, I really try to stress the importance of never being afraid to walk away from a bad situation verses feeling the pressure of staying because “you’re in too deep”. I realize people on UA-cam can be negative and cynical and I hate that my comment might have come off that way.
Or just realize every choice has a consequences I don’t feel bad for danny. Just like I don’t blame my drug dealer for when I overdosed. I knew the chance I took . That’s life.

Best way to prove you’re the impressive one is by thinking for yourself and knowing your limits so as to not incur any unnecessary harm.
Tragically, it is easier to give into demands and authority figure. If only he knew what would happen would he travel a different path entirely.
And the fact that you have to pay them just to be your “friends”.
This is heartbreaking so so terrifying
when you see the *almost* part in the title and feel relieved, only to realize it's far worse than just dying
This is so sad. I genuinely can't tell which is the worst way to go, losing your limbs and senses to a landmine like the soldier from Johnny got his gun or your own friends leaving you on your own and then losing them when they come back to rescue you. My condolences go out to him and his family, and the university should be held responsible as well as the other Frat boys.

He's just a shadow of his former self literally bro can't even see his shadow
Depends how lucid his brain is, but yeah it's alcohol so I can't imagine it would be good in there.
I had a friend break his ankle when pledging to a frat house. I honestly can't believe the things people will go through to fit in with a bunch of losers.
Considering other horror stories you read its nice to hear at least the other frat boys actually tried to help him.
This is really sad. Almost makes me want to cry. I commuted to college while living with my parents and barely had any friends, mostly spending my time reading in the campus library (I’m a nerd lol), but seeing stuff like this honestly makes me grateful. Perhaps if I was a frat boy things could’ve gone south in many different ways…Either way, people need to wise up and stop these dumb “frat pledge” dares. It’s more like a “suicide pledge”. So pointless and tragic. I really wish this kid all the best.
What happened? I don’t get it
Nothing bad in beeing a nerd🌹
Better alone than with bad company ❤
Suki2669🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺 Not to brag about either.
These things happens really rare, no need to limit yourself, just dont try to drink whole bottle of vodka in one go, and you will be fine.
A lesson for everybody: drinking excessively is usually a terrible idea, and never a good one. Being young and dumb doesn't make you invincible.

@@NoLimitsHtx that's a very unfair statement, you can be very well raised and still end up going wild for a while at uni

Can anyone take responsibility for this kids poor decisions? He put himself in that situation.
Seeing the videos of him running around and smiling at the end broke my heart. He didn't deserve this and this is why it's important to teach your kids to stick up for themselves. I hope he finds enjoyment in life
Right he looked like a real sweetheart in those. I'm so sad to see what happened to this young man. Poor boy just wanted to fit in at college 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Technically he chosed that
He chosed that uni, he chosed to enter a frat house, he chosed to drink instead of running or saying no,
At least he can hear that's good part
This news made my day 😀
It’s sad that they were able to revive him. I say that because he’s trapped inside his body now, and if it were me, I wouldn’t want to be trapped in my body, nor would I want my child trapped like this. If someone has been deprived of oxygen that long, it’s better to let them go. Poor Danny, this is so sad. His life was over that night
My biggest fear as well. To be trapped inside my mind. Gosh. This is the most tragic thing I've ever heard
Push me down the stairs, please!!!
I would tell the doctors to kill me tbh i cant imagine living like that
hes probably such a veggie that he doesnt notice tbh
Eh, I'd rather be alive if I didn't have to worry about costs to my family and loved ones.
I’m sure glad i never Let peer pressure get the best of me! Feel sorry for this young man and his family.
How is he now my heart ❤️ goes out to them 🙏
I almost died when I was 16 from hypothermia and alcohol poisoning. All my friends left me at the place we were drinking because my gf at the time was there... all 120 lbs of her and 190lb me. She couldn't get me over the fence we climbed to get in and thank God she called my parents without my consent. My parents brought me to the hospital and the doctors told them if i was outside 30 minutes longer I would have died. If it weren't for her I wouldn't be here right now
Hope you didn't lose that girl, bud

@@trollingdaddy2568 nice troll. Not the time
What led you to do this?
same situation but I wasn't going to let my buddy die. I dragged him to my house and kept him alive all night. I was 14 and he weighed at least 100 lbs more than me. we found a bottle he drank the whole thing. our parents were out of town.
I don’t know what frustrates me more: the fact that a college-aged boy can’t reject a stupid command to finish a whole bottle of vodka or the fact that this hazing culture is still going in this modern era.
You never pledged a frat so you wouldn’t understand
@@isaiah5654
Yeah pledging frats can be quite stupid
Or the fact that his relatives blame everyone but him for his own actions .
Seriously. No wonder he did this without a second thought. This is what happens when parents never hold their children accountable and always tell them how it's "not their fault ".
I feel sorry for them but seriously. Calling the other boys disgusting when their son was the one that actually did it...
@@GojoTheHonoredOne9 if you’re not comfortable with some of the stuff you have to do then why pledge?
This again one of the US only things, i have never heard of any similar events in Europe. And i find the whole idea of fraternity or whatever where you have to prove yourself and fit in extremely idiotic.
I don’t get what’s so amazing about being a drunk who will have alcohol abusive issues in the future
Ima be honest I’d suffocate myself so I can die if I couldn’t see or talk or walk. I pray for his true recovery. This is hell.
Online classes looking real good now
I'm taking online psychology
Staying indoors as well 😍
That’s not funny in this type of situation
@@ABlueyFan don’t be sensitive. Maybe he’s serious? Maybe he’s joking? Mind your business
@@ABlueyFan mate everything is funny if you try hard enough. That "online classes" quip is actually extremely tame in terms of dark humour.
I found it chilling that before the incident he was walking just blind-folded at first to being led on permanently blind afterwards.
Prayers to the family.
+ he was the only one with a odd color head band
:( that’s so sad omg
@@user-rn5un7kh2p tell me about it sometimes it's better being alone cause people's intentions don't be good
@@Sosababy618 exactly the truth 👏
@@Former_Pastor it takes the real to know the real gotta keep good people in your life
Fraternities should be banned. This is gonna keep happening if somebody doesn't put an end to it.
This is so sad. I can’t believe those boys still get to walk around like nothing happened!
One stupid mistake changes your/ your loved ones lives forever. Just WOW…
@JoJo to be cool, to fit in, to not “look” like a loser who backed out from downing a bottle.
@@hotbbqporkbun8214 actually it’s called peer pressure
@@GalacticStudios69 or that yes.
@@hotbbqporkbun8214 it's fun. I've gotten blackout drunk at a frat before. Forcing them to drink X amount of hard liquor is very dumb though. I've only seen those kind of challenges for beer. Hard to get brain damage from chugging too many beers vs. vodka/spirits.
Luckily I was able to stop my daughter from participating in hazing. She was about to inspite of her better judgment. I feel horrible for this family and Danny. Praying that he recovers and that his family gets justice.
What is hazing?? Is that like “AKA”??
@@fleurdemeraudee It means any activity expected of someone in joining or participating in a group that humiliates, degrades, abuses, or endangers them regardless of a person's willingness.
Recovers? Nope. Not from that kind of injury.
@@fleurdemeraudee it's similar to cult initiation. If u want to belong to fraternity or sorority, u have to execute anything they put u through.
@@fleurdemeraudee hazing is very rarely taken to this extreme though. most fraternities will make you down a few shots, shotgun some beers and that’s about it. maybe run around campus half naked. i’ve never seen someone have to chug a whole bottle of vodka, that’s beyond absurd.
Omg. Poor baby. Oh no this is absolutely tragic
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
Social acceptance just isn't worth becoming disabled or dying for
Hazing is outdated
Its indoctrination, they use psychological tactics to keep people in wether deliberately or not. These people cloud your judgment because they get you to trust them.
Facts
It's outrageous that the college is still allowing those fraternity "brothers" to stay enrolled there, this school should also be held accountable for what happened to this young man..sad. This makes me alot more thankful that the only friends I ever needed or wanted were my family, fiancé and MAYBE 1 or 2 childhood school-mates. Screw trying to "belong" or fit in
The colleges cant stop it, its a group of boys who all pay to live in a mansion
It’s insane they still get to go walk around freely on the campus after hazing these kids!
They saved him he drank to much and had no pulse so they took him to the hospital
@@Jb64271 I agree, stop blaming the guys lol, like no offense but he chose to drink that much and it’s no ones fault there
@@Jb64271 They dropped him on his head
He was pressured but not forced, that's an important distinction, he made a consious decision to drink the whole bottle in a short span of time!
Remember guys, the boy also desired to seek the approval of his brothers, including drinking that much alcohol. Blame the fraternity yes, but the boy isn’t free of all blame
Let this be a lesson in peer pressure. Know your limits. Know what position you’re going to put yourself in and know who’s around you to trust if you’re in a bad situation like he was. Poor Danny. Sad he had to pay the price just trying to fit in 😔🙏
I keep seeing comments say that the people he was with were untrustworthy but they weren’t. If anything they were incredibly trust worthy and were worried for his well being the entire time.
not so poor Danny, noone pointed a gun and forced him to do that, he always had the option to say no or to stop drinking, still extremely sad that this happened but it's what it is
@@gabrielfernandes5855 yes, poor Danny. He’s a kid and made a mistake, do not strip him of sympathy because “nobody held a gun to his head”. We all make mistakes, he got the worst end of it. Sorry Danny and I hope you do better ❤️🩹
The people who provided the alcohol need to be criminally charged. This is practically negligent manslaughter.
@Rye Bread 😂😂😂
The family said to finish the bottle of vodka.
So I guess they share the blame too
So... your mom?
@@Jugeum He's a grown-up man and made choices.
This shows you EXACTLY what a Pledge to a Fraternity can cost you. Never allow this to happen to you. This is Real. His life is over and he is a literal vegetable now. He is 100% an Invalid.
They should be charged with attempted murder.
With "brothers" like that you don't need enemies
This is why ahead of time I’ve told my family if I ever get to point like this, I want them to pull the plug my only hope is that they realised I was serious and didn’t think it was a joke because one of my worst fears is just to be alive there and not being able to interact with the world in anyway
That's a hard decision for the family because you will always never know if you did the right thing.
@@benijen A person's basically dead when they're in that sort of position. And I think the same way. If something like that happened to me, I'd want the plug pulled too. Sure it's not the same for everyone. But in my opinion, there's just no point in staying around anymore. My family would either suffer mentally with my death, or I'd suffer physically being kept alive in a state like that.
Yup me too. If I’m ever a vegetable I told them to pull the plug. My family will suffer either way.
Hard topic to talk about
That's true. He's basically trapped in his own body now
The irony is they „saved“ his life to let him live in this condition, which is worse than dying tbh
Pretty hard to feel bad when no one forced you to drink that much
Hazing is so outdated. Fraternity life never interested me, but fraternities/sororities need to see these videos to prevent unfortunate consequences like this.
No the law needs to make hazing illegal!
Watching videos like this will never end it..... Unfortunately. It can make people aware but students will only become more crafty at what is done.
@@kennyhumble3699 it is illegal. That's the problem.
They do, it still doesn’t change
"Outdated" You aint never had fun before, He deserved it!
As a mother of a 16 year old young man this hits home.
As a human being man this hits home
@@newname3021 right
Hopefully you raised him right and he knows better than to put himself in a situation like that
As home this hits a human being
I thout it looked like techhsamrt he looks like a UA-cam
the worst feeling i ever had by far is beign heavily intoxicated with alcohol, i felt both my body and mind were breaking down in the worst way possible so i get a glimpse of the pain he had to endure
Crazy how he pretty much did this to himself. Wow people will do anything for friends.
WHY PEOPLE ALWAYS LET their surroundings to be an influence? Stand up and YOU BE an influence to them. Otherwise, you don't need those kind of friends. Do that which you know is right, not what you which to be right.
That's what I'm saying lmfao it's Danny fault for not stopping they ain't had a gun to his head forcing him to drink he just had too much pride and it was his downfall
I somewhat agree with you, but I'm not out to become a powerbroker. It's not my place to influence the decisions of the ignorant masses. I'll look after myself, and let everybody else do the same.
@@stonerslawth6258 exactly bruh and they’re blaming the frat lmao
@@Daniel.03286 We always want someone to blame instead of hoding people accountable for their actions. They said this was the worse hazing all time. Where was the worse part, they told him to finish a bottle of alcohol. Nobody beat him like some of the other hazing videos I see.
Not everyone is raised to be a leader, sadly
