It's been going on in Australia for quite a while. I think it's based on Nek minnit. Not sure what that means. Get someone from that side of the world in here to explain.

Some irish guy did one and jumped into a river. Drowned.
Now people are claiming facebook needs to stop the trend.

It's been going on for about a month here (down under).

But it got stupid, e.g people skulling bottles of bundy, doing it whilst driving and the like. so it's kinda dead here now.

It seemed to start after our greatest living PM, Bob Hawke, necked a beer at the Sydney Test. Fun Fact, Bob Hawke used to hold the world record for drinking a yard of Ale, and this record still stands at Oxford University.

Been going on at Uni for at least 2 years, everyone posted in a closed group so it never went viral. Im sure Unis have been doing it for ages though
