Thank you all for clarifying.

Exactly what I ment.

While at the moment, no one really had an idea that this would happen, it did.

I have never heard of this type of situation and I dont think many have until this arose.

The body is one great peice of machinery, but, there are break downs and we can only hope it doesnt happen when frivollity is envolved and death occurs.

Hmmm...I know what excessive liquid in a short period of time can do to the body, and it doesn't only cause brain swelling. Doesn't it seem logical that doing anything in excess is dangerous? I'd think so.

i'm with preciousjeni. they might nit have known you could die, but i'm sure they knew that something unsavory could happen... elsewise, why do it? i'm sure they thought the guys would at least get sick to the stomach, throw up some, and be very uncomfortable, and that it itself makes it not so "innocent."
