A boy who was desperate to “power up” after watching “Transformers” started drinking gasoline in emulation of the mechanical heroes of the film, suffering permanent brain damage as a result.
The boy, a 14-year-old schoolboy living in China’s Sichuan area, apparently enjoyed good grades and was good with machines, perhaps explaining his fascination with Transformers.
His parents running a shop selling lighters, he found himself with ready access to lighter fluid, which he began covertly snuffing, in spite of being caught several times. Soon he progressed to filching gasoline in bottles and using the vapours to get high with.
All this apparently took its toll on his cognitive faculties, and soon he hatched upon a scheme based on his viewing of Transformers. Seeing that his mechanical heroes gained power from fuel, he too resolved to try this, and began stealing fuel in mineral water bottles, which he would drink habitually.
Eventually his theft came to light, and he was taken to see a doctor, where it was discovered that he could no longer perform simple sums and appeared to have developed a severe mental disability.
Doctors found him to have become addicted to gasoline, the lead content of which entered his body, causing brain damage. He was subsequently hospitalised in order to curb his addiction.
When asked why he imbibed the fuel, he said only “Because I wanted to power up.”
Via Heaven.

"transformers brain damages fan"...what a misleading post title.
that boy is already stupid to begin with >.>
His response when asked why he did it is classic. Wow.
really? really?
*Facepalm*
14 years old and drinking gas? He must have already had brain damage BEFORE hand. Which came first? the chicken or the egg?
What's next, he's gonna GIVE A RANDOM TRUCK HIS FACE?
what a dumb child. *facepam*
Oh noes! we must protect the children from those abominations, someone must ban fictional robots because they incite children to drink gasoline!
Where is Agnes-chan!? where!?
somewhere drinking gasoline. now where did you think she get those banning loli ideas from anyway?
Let's face it: it's just an excuse. He was just addicted to it and used transformeers as an excuse. He could wel be saying Optimus Prime runs on crack
......... -_- Major face-palm now commencing.
Well his 14, if he is doing stupid things like that, there isn't much of a loss. I thought the kid was like 7 or something.. Seems like it was only a matter of time.
Haha, what a sucker :) Good job wasting your brains and life kid, keep it up.
Last time I checked, Transformers don't drink gasoline as an energy drink.
But above all I lol'd. Literally.
they watched chinese subbed movie, and their subbed group is terrible....
Man, any Transfan worth their salt knows you gotta freebase Energon to power up.
Wait, he was NOT brain damaged before he thought of drinking that?
hahaha.... dumb chinese XD
Typical Chinese: from gasoline to rugby to drugs...
>Typical brown-skinned Filipindio: from gasoline to rugby to drugs...
Fixed that one for you.
It seems we have a new Sand Ninja.
see unleaded is always better if he and china weren't so cheap he might be just very stupid
who DOESN'T want to power up, amirite guis?
its weird that he has now mental disability when in fact i too am inhaling gasoline just to get myself on the get go and still remain "sane" <_< well "insane" if you look at a philosophical point of view but thats just me
First off the kid was high sniffing gasoline,Even I was educated on the subject of chemical hazard when I was 7 years old not to sniff gasoline or drink it. I feel bad for the kid now how has to pay the price of being sterotype as a Chinese Gas sniffer.
They should employ stupid people label care. Warning if your a kid or mental person drinking gasoline will cause brain damage.
but stupid people wont read it.
if they ARE stupid, they won't get any stupider than they are now by drinking the gasoline. for a very very slim chance, they might become smart after consumption. there is a fine line between genius and psycho
Wow I thought we were done hearing about chinese and lead being in everything they make, but seriously everyone knows that if you really want to "power-up" then you get a red bull. But its official now,the kid is now a RETARDICON!
sad and fucked up
It's America's fault, they hate Chinese people
Instead of power up he got power down
But everybody know if you want to power up you must wear shabby costume,make a party of four,bully children,push old people,expose yourself and collect treasure form trash bin.
Hell the quickest way to power up is by near death experience,"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"
powa up yo
Transformers FAN damages BRAIN.
14?! that's way to old to be doing stupid crap like that, he should be taken from his parents, they are disgustinly neglectful.
aboriginals here in australia do the same with petrol its quite sad, they're called petrol-sniffers and they have been known to tie a tin of petrol on string and wear it around their neck to keep on inhaling it while walking
A top quality, standards-based web browser. ,
Pity he didn't pass his common sense class.
Nice try kid, but you're still no Cody Porter: Master of S&
well, at least he didn't play P3 and shot himself in the head >.>
why is it taht whenever a kid does something idiotic..
they say hes was "such a bright/intelligent child"
DARWIN= 1, STUPID-KID= 0
And yet again, the games/movies are blamed for the actions of an idiot.
and eroge are blamed for the actions of rapist or loli
Human stupidity is limitless nowadays...
I lol'd
eh? They drink gasoline?
One shall Stand, One Shall Drink Gasoline I guess
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...........
I am speechless
HIS POWER WAS OVER NINE THOU--... and then it fell down to 0.
Natural Selection, hard at work! This kid has a Darwin Award in his future, I can see it!
This kid deserves an honorable mention.
Must be the bad shanzhai translation. everyone knows that transformers run on energeon. He should have at least created an energeon processing plant first
rofl power up xDD
ugh, if an idea THAT stupid can cross his mind, one wouldn't dismiss the possibility that he already had brain damage before the ordeal.
transformers run on energon not gas
he probably failed to understand the difference between a machine and what he is human.
For me it's to power up with a good sandwich,drink and some chocolate
and use WD-40 as cologne
14 years old lol, I think battery acid is better.
hey, have you heard? 2 teenages got arrested by the cops: one was drinking battery acid and the other was drinking gasoline. one was charged and the other couldn't handle the heat.
correction *2 teenagers
LMFAO
Retard is retard.
epic win
wait, isn't his brain already damaged if he is dumb enough to drink gasoline?
Correct response.
I'm just waiting for the parents to do something even more dumb than their kid, such as suing the gasoline company for making such tempting hydrocarbons.
Interesting that it was actually the lead content in the fuel which caused the most damage (the more you know...).
This is terrible, and I feel terrible for having such a huge grin.
He wished to transform and now rolling out in pain.
Deceptecons (sp), Deceiving retards since the dawn of time
stupid... -___-;
Damn funny ahaahaha!!!!
Watching Transformers 2 already gives you brain damage so I see no harm being done here.
ALL HAIL TRANSFORMERS!
ALL HAIL CHINA!
stupid… -___-; :facepalm:
Transformers suck.
You spelled "Gobots" wrong.
Transformers din drank any gas at all...
Gasoline.... hmm.... i should try some... smells good....
That guy must be dumb to drink gasoline and drinking it makes him even dumber....Hopefully it doesnt become the new "crack".
It probably will now.
Geez... when did transformers actually drink gasoline?
The closest referrence would have been insecticons trying to suck oil from a tanker. Even then they never show it like them casually drink it just to 'power up' They consume energon to sustain their functions... not to 'power-up'
-__-
"A boy who was desperate to “power up” after watching “Transformers” emulated what he had seen in the film and started drinking gasoline, suffering permanent brain damage as a result."
Gammon he was stupid to begin with. It looks to me he already had brain damage.
dumb....
wonder if the good grade statement were true in the first place
He's Chinese! Of course he has good grades!
he has good grades because all his classmates are dumb@$$es.
i don't know if I'm flattered or pissed about this typical stereotype remark... i'll go smoke some weed instead and go back to study for my exam next morning....
... I guess sarcasm really doesn't work on teh internets.
Well, there are different tipes of intelligence in this world. He may have had all his brains focused to intellectual works and the rest...oh, well...
Maybe there should be a "Please do not try this at home kids" disclaimer before the movie starts or something.
Oh please.. along with the warnings that you can't put live animals in the microwave to dry them?
There will always be some exceptional idiots finding a way to inflict damage on themselves or others with pretty much anything.
But it'd be there to protect the creators and anyone such from the relatives of such imbeciles, obviously.
transformers dont drink gasoline...
Maybe a Chinese version of Transformers?
His mech name from mow on is Megadumb. Ore was it NoBrain? XD
His gasoline bill is over 9000 yuan.
Does this count for a Darwin Award? I mean he's not dead, but he's too dysfunctional to ever possibly have children.
At least he didn't pick up other bad habit as well like lighting up a smoke while he was addicted to gasoline.
ITS OVER 9000!!!!
If someone makes on more fucking "over 9000!" joke...
You fail to see that the most major cause of his brain damage was lead poisoning... China still sells leaded gas... *There the reason for global warming*...
..not worth repeating.
^This. Epic Comment.
*ROFLMFAO*
Failed Combo~!! XD
USA 1 - 0 China
Is...
THIS...
You just made a typo too^^
anyway, sad story
Nice typo, Storm. I almost tought you're a dumb@$$ yourself ^_^
technically No they don't, instead they transform gasoline and energy in to energon...LOL
his Powerlevel is now over 9000 ^^ lol
In the recent series yeah they do. It's like their booze as demonstrayted by thecfact that they have the constructiconsdrinking it endlessly and their construction crew stereotyps. The animation is shit the story is well i havn't seen enough but theyy do crave gas.
gasoline did not cause brain damage. he was born stupid
Yeah, they haven't been seen drinking any liquid in the movie. Maybe it's just an excuse to get high.
Excuse? Of course it's an excuse. Naturally, they dont want to admit that. It's nicer to blame "those Western influences".
like blaming RL rape on eroge...
