Watch: Young man licks freezing pipe for 'banter' and it unsurprisingly ends painfully

As a general rule you shouldn't lick things. There are obvious exceptions such as ice cream, lollipops and your bosses hole.

But you should really never put your tongue on ice cold surfaces; had this kid not seen Dumb and Dumber!?

Jamie is 19 from the UK and was having the BANTER with his mate. He saw a cold pipe and his mate dared him to lick it. Jamie is never one to back down from a bit of cheeky BANTER, so obliged. What transpired isn't just painful looking, it's downright hilarious.

Jamie was grand in the end, he was just in a bit of pain. But was ultimately cheerful about the experience. ‘It’s not the best idea I’ve ever had but it was a laugh,’ he said.
