    If alcohol was absent from all this, the probability of a fatal accident taking place would certainly be much lower. This was a senseless and avoidable tragedy that killed a person and deeply impacted everyone’s lives. I wish people in this age group could understand that bad decisions done during this period of our lives have the potential to change our future and completely destroy the dreams we once nurtured. I think for many young adults there is a sense of invincibility and overconfidence that may place them in dangerous and potentially fatal situations.

      I came to this realization quite a few years ago, when I was driving up a hill at the time high school kids were getting off the school bus. A teenage boy pushed s teenage girl right in front of my car! Was he trying to murder her? No! They both broke out laughing as I came to a screeching halt. There was nothing malicious about the event. The boy had no sense of mortality, and neither did the girl, apparently. Teenagers think they will live forever.

      The world is such a cruel, dark and damp place. It can be very lonely in the winds of change. One can only wonder why the world is so cruel. I for one, do not believe in the concept of sin for I believe all religion to be man made, but why is nature so cruel? Why can fate be so cruel? These questions are far beyond or human capabilities to understand. Heliopolis is one example. Many women and men probably got together and danced by the fire, held hands, sang and dance, but cruel humans come along and pillage them. For why, or why do they do such things? Why cause pain to another? It never made much sense to me to be honest.
      Or how about the bow of the WW2 boat in the air? I never understood that either because Savage was in a waffle house some 30 years ago and this guy there was bragging about how he got married and Randy Savage was sitting there hungry and you know what he said? He said "Buddy. I don't give a fuuuuuck". That's pretty crazy there. And the guy said "Well you better give a fuck" and a brawl escalated to the levels of rig or rag. Can you believe that? Rig or rag levels of sluns.

Anywho, I developed a problem with alcohol so it’s just better to not drink at all. (I never had a problem with alcohol until I was trying to control severe nerve pain without much help from doctors.

"Breath, Nolan, Breath" a doc on TH-cam for example.

    I went to college at SMU in Dallas (TCU's rival school) and went to ACL & Lake Travis every year for fraternity "away weekends". Speaking from experience, when college kids go down to Austin, all bets are off. We would start drinking on the bus ride down and continue drinking all weekend until the bus ride home. Alcohol + drugs + impulsive young college kids trying to impress each other is a dangerous combo. Add a large body of water to the mix & that danger increases tenfold. We always chartered "party barges" operated by commercial drivers who were very cautious about safety.
    I remember two incidents specially: The first time I went, we were getting onto the boat when the owner told us we couldn't have any glass bottles onboard. Of course, all of our liquor bottles were glass so we had to leave those behind and stick to the beer kegs we had. Looking back, this was actually the best time I ever had, since there was limited beer and no hard alcohol so nobody was blackout drunk. We swam, danced, and had a great time. One year we rented 2 party boats, one for freshman & sophs and one for jr and sr. Once we got far enough out into the lake, about 30 minutes since we set off, they announced that we were stopping so we could swim and go to the other boat, but to not get into the water until they gave the signal that the propellers were fully stopped and the boat was anchored. A couple of guys ignored this and jumped over the boat railings as soon as the boat stopped moving. Immediately, the boat operators announced that the day was over and they were taking us back to the dock. We were all really upset and blamed them for "ruining our day". The guys were really nice but firm about it, saying that they had a zero tolerance policy for ignoring their safety commands and they would not continue our trip. We did not get our money back. Looking back now, I am grateful for this, as we had all been drinking heavily before going to the lake and someone could easily have drowned.
    For any college kids reading this, I strongly suggest only taking commercially chartered party boats for these kinds of events. They deal with these risky situations all the time, and know the danger signs to look out for. Even then, it is still incredibly risky. Every year, without fail, there was someone who fell and got injured, cut up their feet and legs climbing the rocks, or got alcohol poisoning. Make sure you also have plenty of water available and sunscreen, and know your limits.

I live in the Los Angeles area, where a lot of people like to go to Las Vegas for the weekend, and a lot of them take party buses for the trip. I would not want to go on one, but presumably it's a lot safer that way. There's talk of building a high speed rail line along that route, and I've been thinking that the trains would need some "party cars" with lots of padding, some toilets, and the ability to be hosed out after each trip.

Cause I heard the same type of messages from my parents about drinking related stuff, from teachers, and eventually from court ordered counselors (dui)...by sheer luck I survived that era with only some bumps and bruises, it could've been much different.

    Too much sympathy for what amounts to be incredibly callous and calculated behaviour. To switch so quickly to self-preservation mode is actually quite disturbing and being a teenager is no excuse. They couldn't give two fucks about their friend. Some may argue that with their whole lives ahead of them, they shouldn't be charged for what amounts to be trivial crimes e.g lying to the police and providing alcohol to minors, but really the charges also are representative of their cold-hearted behaviour. I would imagine if they'd spent more than 30 seconds looking for their friend, most charges would have been dropped. Echoes of Michelle Carter...

      Sadly, drinking alcohol and boating do not mix. When I was a senior in high school, a friend of mine had a younger brother who made a dangerous mistake and jumped off a railroad trestle and broke his neck. He became a wheelchair bound quadriplegic. The next summer another friend had an older brother who died from drowning while water skiing.
      The common denominator was alcohol.
      Two years later, another school friend died from taking a midnight swim while drunk.
      Swimming and drinking don’t mix. Boating and drinking don’t mix.
      Most outdoor activities and alcohol don’t mix.

    I understand they were just drunk kids having fun, but somebody died, they made no real effort to help the guy, they were a danger to any other boaters who may have been on the water, lied, deleted evidence etc... I feel like the charges are pretty light for all of that. Also, this is taking their word that it was an accident. I seriously doubt it was planned, but alcohol can heat situations up.

      Burns initially don't hurt , but when the nerve endings come back the pain is excruciating. Most people are put into a medically induced coma , too help this out. Depending on the thickness of the burns , infection is a major concern. You also do neuro observation , if the pupils are fixed and dilated a sign the brain is not working (other words brain dead )an eeg would be done at . least three times to see if there is any electric movement in the brain , if not technology your brain is dead..The next of kin and the Doctors have too make the decision too take the person off life support.

      Anne had airway damage from smoke inhalation as well as thermal injuries to her airway and of course to her skin. She also suffered a sternal fracture which can cause hemorrhaging, pain and difficulty breathing. The reason she sat straight up on the stretcher may have been because she was in pain, having difficulty breathing and/or in a state of shock and delirium. She was already behaving erratically when she rammed a garage door earlier then fled down the street and plowed into another home causing it and her car to catch fire. She tested positive for cocaine as well as fentanyl, but because the testing wasn’t done until hours after she was hospitalized the fentanyl was likely administered for pain in the hospital. Cocaine induced psychosis is a possibility and can cause paranoia and hallucinations. I am an RN and work in ICU and this is what I have gathered from reports on-line combined with my nursing background. I hope this helps. I too would like to see Dr. Grande’s analysis of this subject.

I can think of a couple things I did after drinking while still in high school where I just am mortified and cringing despite the fact it’s long over and no one died bc I did something or said something stupid while inebriated. I don’t think alcohol itself is to blame but it played a significant part. Hell, alcohol and boats/water activities (?! ha) don’t usually mix well even if you know how alcohol effects you.

I had 1 friend that sunk his boat and managed to swim to an island but it was a miracle worse didn't happen. We were young and did not have forethought or fear. We should have. I don't know how I survived those years (this was the late 70s).
