Getting drunk is not at all cool as alcohol brings along a long list of its negative consequences. These days, teenagers are tech-savvy, they spend most of the time in the front of the screens, playing games, watching videos etc.
Many a times, youngsters watch YouTube funny drunk videos, with attractive people drinking alcohol, doing crazy things, in it. But they need to understand that such videos don’t give the true picture of alcohol.
A new study led by University of Pittsburgh researchers was published in the journal Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research on Friday. The study found that the YouTube funny drunk video depict fake picture of the world.
Brian Primack, the lead researcher and assistant vice chancellor for health and society in the Health Sciences School, said, "We see somebody falling down, we see somebody breaking something, but then through quick cuts or through editing, we turn that into something funny, as opposed to something that might have harmful consequences".
He being a physician also said that alcohol is highly responsible for causing cirrhosis of the liver, family breakups and serious injuries. The study has suggested that people should not blindly believe the information given on YouTube or other online videos as they are not always real.
