A South African man dies after drinking jagermeister.
According to local authorities, a South African man who was trying to win a $12 wager consumed the entire bottle of Jägermeister but ended up passing away.
The unidentified drinker, who was reportedly between the ages of 25 and 30, was reportedly competing in a drinking contest in Limpopo where the winner would receive just under $12.
The German digestif was being drank by the man as others cheered him on in the now-famous video, which has gone viral on all social media platforms.
He is alleged to have finished the bottle in less than two minutes before passing out and being rushed to a local hospital, where he was later declared dead.
The man passed away on Sunday.
According to Brigadier Motlafela Mojapelo, spokesman for the Limpopo Police, the matter has been opened for an investigation by local authorities.
Please, if you are reading this, never compete in a drinking and eating contest with anyone. It is incredibly risky.
Similar reports on persons who passed away as a result of drinking and eating competitions have been reported dozens of times.
It is not reasonable in terms of both the spiritual and the bodily.
