Girls stomach removed after drinking liquid nitrogen cocktail
From that article:
I hope she gets laughed out of court and has to pay full costs. How many times does this need to be said? SHE DRANK LIQUID NITROGEN! This doesn't mean she's entitled to compensation it means she's a f**king idiot.

Beware Jason, if I come down to your place for that bbq I'm going to injure myself in some way and sue you
but she didn't go out and buy liquid nitrogen and drink it, she was served an beverage that was supposed to be drinkable
A beverage which was bubbling, unlike any beverage she previously had consumed in her life.......
If you went to a restaurant and you got served something that was burning, would you eat it just because you were in a restaurant and assumed that everything that was served was safe?
Probably not asking the right person I suppose......
i refer you again to the Liebeck v. McDonald's case
at the end of the article is responses to the story from the public. It seems the majority seem to think the establishment is at fault?
Since when were the majority of people to be trusted? Most people probably still think Fiats are unreliable rusty things......
Never said they were to be trusted, a lot of people read these responses as they do with the posts/threads here on FF...don't shoot the messenger.
I didn't shoot you!
I just get annoyed with the opinions of the masses, I saw a picture the other day on FB saying that we shouldn't test stuff on animals when we've got prisons full of paedo's we could be testing on. Firstly, I don't like animal testing, but what kind of sick people would test on other humans even if those humans have committed horrible crimes? It's like Nazi Germany again.....
There's some really interesting points being made on that article by the public, one point is I bet the barman feels bad whether he is to blame or not

The thing is we're only hearing her side of the story. The barman might have told her to wait till all the bubbling is gone before consuming it, we just don't know.
I will come back to my original point which is that if you come across something like a drink which is making a noise, emitting smoke/vapour, on fire etc etc etc then you really should have a think about why it's doing that and consider the impact upon your health. It's why people feel strange about eating raw fish and other things which aren't "normal"
no Nazi Germany killed and experimented on innocent people

We're too kind too ours. More hospitable than most travelodges lol.
yeah, but no one, and I mean no one deserves to stay in some of the travelodges that I've stayed in.....
That said, nothing beats the hotel I stayed in when I was in Metz. These were the three biggest stains in the room.....
I've never felt as dirty as I did that night.......
Because people are idiots does not mean that we should protect them. Doing so removes the incentive for them to learn from their mistakes and re-inforces the retarded notion that no one is at fault for anything no matter what they do. That's a load of nonsense.
It does and that's scary. We need to turn this nonsense around. Make people realise that if you do something glaringly, obviously, stupid that you - not anyone else - should pay the price for that.

If it was burning, you wouldn't be able to get a massive amount on your mouth before spitting it back out and having a big glass of water.
This was totally drinkable and didn't cause the damage until it was inside her stomach.
I agree the bar should take responsibility - unless there was a massive warning sign somewhere, it shouldn't be assumed she knew there was a problem.
this is first time ive heard of some one going to pub/bar buying a drink, drinking it and ending up having to have stomach removed. yet i hear ever day of people ending up dead in a non fault car crash, yet we dont call everyone who drives stupid for being out there risking their lives
