If you haven't heard of what this is...let me explain a little.

It is usually when I group of three or more people try and each drink one gallon of milk to try and induce vomiting! Sometimes they mix other things with the milk such as eating chilli sause in between, to make them more sick! I have also seen people eating blocks of cheese!

I have seen on youtube, teenagers having parties specifically for this purpose...not alcohol, just drinking gallons of milk per person!

It is very popular and if you search on youtube and type in "puke fest" you will get LOTS of results.

Now...what people don't get is there are many dangers to this...severe dehydration, enamel loss on the teeth if repetidley done, internal bleeding etc. This is becoming as popular as "suffocation roulette"/

What is your opinion on this matter? Do you think it is becoming another one of the deadly "teenage crazes"?

It's that kinda thing that makes me despair about life..

When I throw up it comes out my nose and everything smells like vomit for a while.

I only saw this activity once on a clip from Family Guy, I had no idea it was real.

I work in a hospital laboratory... I handle body fluids, basically. Mostly just blood, sometimes other stuff.

It's a great way to get free food....

Me: "Hey, that ____ you're eating reminds of the other night. I got this specimen from surgery that looked just like that, it came from the patient's _____, all bloody, smelly, etc."

Them: "OH MAN, that's GROSS!"

Me: "Uh, if you're not going to eat that, could you pass it over here? " :wink:

Way to go Mac! I'm glad to see that someone else has tried something similar. About four years ago, in high school, we all attempted the gallon of milk trick, and only one of us pulled it off. Seconds after the hour had passed he was projectile vomiting all over the backyard. It was a wretched experience, and vomiting is the only way out. Luckily, its on video somewhere...

We were doing that on the Alaska Fire Crews way before that!

We called it a 4-4-30

Drink 4 quarts of water (4 canteens worth)

In 4 minutes

And keep it in for 30 seconds

The winner got to keep all the money pooled for the bet!

We usually did this after coming in off the fire line.

I have this SPECTACULAR shot of me with a huge stream of water cascading from my mouth

I was starting my 4th but just couldn't finish it.

Funny thing for me was how smooth it felt coming back out.

Wanna see the pic? I may be able to find it! :twisted:

i now have a whole new image of you.... :wink:

that is just nasty....but boys will be boys i guess...lol!
i wouldn't win...i'm a sympathetic puker, so i'd be puking whether or not i even drank anything if someone else started it....
i'll pass. we'll have to come up with a 'nicer' party game...

Awww, now you're making me feel bad!

That particular stunt was 12 years ago... I haven't repeated it since... I swear!

When I worked in a blood bank, I got to see all the sympathetic puking I never wanted to see.
I don't get grossed out by it, but to have everything come to a stand still because of chain-reaction-vomiting, well... that sorta wrecks the whole blood drive for the day! :roll:

We have people in our own lab who can't stand stuff like phlegm. Why anyone would work in a medical laboratory if they couldn't stomach the sorts of things they're going to work with... I can't understand! :roll:

Yucky!

I think this could qualify for the "Worst Things on the Internet" thread. I hate being sick and if I throw up, I have a headache I can't seem to get rid of all day. That people make themselves sick on purpose is crazy!

I often drink a gallon of milk in a day - its never made me throw up. Though that is several glasses throughout the day.

*interestingly, I just asked my lactose-intolerant roommate yesterday if he's been drinking my milk because i went through 5 gallons in the past week and thats even without having any for a day. He hadn't but said he also noticed how I'd have a full gallon in the morning, then barely any milk in the jug in the evening when he got home from work

OMFG! What will stupid frat boys think of next! Thos question is obviously rhetorical. Yeah, I find any game that causes one's teeth to rot and one's stomach to develop al large ulceration really COOL! At least in ancient Rome, they ate a large feast first and then went to the vomitoriam to relieve themselves. So, then could go back to eating more crap. Gluttony RULES!
