This is what happens when kids try to be cool by drinking. What a senseless tragedy.

Come on. She must have had a lot of it or be allergic or ill or something.

Stop acting like "Vodka and Soda" is the devil.

Sad story though.

Exactly. It's more dangerous mixing alcohol and red bull because alcohol is a depressant and red bull is a stimulant and it just messes you up.

I think it's more harmful than mixing it with soda, because energy drinks **** with your blood pressure and everything. But, that's why I drink it like that. It gets you drunk faster and you feel alot more, in my opinion. The hangovers are terrible, though. It is really sad that children are dying due to their curiosity.

I agree, it had nothing to do with what she mixed it with. It's all about how much alcohol she used. And since it was a mixed drink, I'm assuming that she didn't know the proper portions to use, considering this was likely her first time using alcohol. But still, I'm wondering if she possibly had a heart, blood, or brain condition prior to the incident, because I know of many 12-14 year olds who have gone through more than half of a bottle of vodka and survived. Also, I'm wondering if they stopped at just alcohol. There could have been drugs involved.

Actually Mr. Educational, mixing Caffeine and vodka is a lethal combination and kills every year. Coke, Red Bull, Pepsi etc. all possess large amounts of caffeine, too much to be mixing with vodka (Even though I do drink these combinations myself). Caffeine works to speed up your heart rate while vodka slows down your heart rate. This strains your heart while drinking and cause numerous health problems such as cardiac arrest.

So your should probably educate YOURSELF more before preaching to others.
