Barman tried over fatal tequila

A Berlin barman has gone on trial accused of having served a 16-year-old boy 45 tequila shots, which killed him.

The barman is charged with having "fatally injured" the boy in his bar in February 2007. The barman has admitted responsibility, German media report.

The 28-year-old barman, identified only as Aytac G, allegedly had a drinking bet with the schoolboy, but poured mostly water for himself.

The boy fell into a coma with alcohol poisoning, and died four weeks later.

The case triggered outrage in Germany and a heated debate about binge drinking by teenagers.

Two men aged 18 and 21, who encouraged the 16-year-old to down the tequilas, were sentenced in November to complete a compulsory social training course.

Prosecutors accuse the barman of having also served alcohol illegally to youths on 173 occasions in 2005-2007.

Holy shit, my hero. 45 tequilla shots is insane.

intoxication and pride - writing the consumed drinks on your arm so you don't forget.

I'd bite on it S O F I, but I have a hot date tonight and I need to shave my balls.

It's not even 4pm...it must be lengthy...time-wise that is.

What the fuck, I dont think I'd last long enough to be able to take 45 shots. Sad story though.

Just...stupid. Kinda sad but predominantly stupid.

This.

I mean, i'm an alcoholic and everything, but at 16 45 shots of tequilla?

 

[_carmi]

45 shots of tequila? Craaaazy. How could he even hold them and bring them to his mouth at the end??

Most I drank was about 10 shots, and a few beers. But I wanted to be sober enough to walk a few miles home b/c i didn't trust the rides home...I was 17 @ the time, so I can see why the kid drank so much. One thinks hes so macho when we are young.

There's thinking you're macho and there's thinking you're Superman. At 16, you're usually neither but the consequences of thinking the latter can be a lot more, hm...grave (get it? grave? huhuhuhu)
