A teen is lucky to be alive after downing a glass of bleach after watching a prank video online.
The viral video, which originally surfaced in 2009 sees a man pretending to drink bleach, he then throws up fake blood and collapses on a table.
The 17-year-old boy was rushed to hospital and suffered severe burns to his osephagus, after drinking the bleach at home in Sint-Pieters-Leeuw, Belgium.
The teen had made a bet his friends and they promised him 10 Euros if he drank the bleach.
Kris Weemaels of the Don Bosco school in the city of Halle, where the boy is a pupil spoke to the media.
