Cocktail with liquid nitrogen at the corporate party: man's stomach ruptured

Incident at the corporate party: consumption of liquid nitrogen led to injury

According to Главком: During the corporate event at the culinary studio 'Game of Tables' in Moscow, 38-year-old Sergey was hospitalized after consuming a cocktail with liquid nitrogen. The incident occurred when the man drank a beverage containing liquid nitrogen, which has a temperature of about -196°C. As a result, Sergey was diagnosed with a ruptured stomach.

Chef Vasily, who was responsible for preparing the cocktails, did not warn guests about the dangers of consuming liquid nitrogen, which likely led to the tragic outcome. After consuming the cocktail, Sergey was urgently taken to intensive care, where medics performed surgery to address the consequences of the injury.

Fortunately, Sergey came to his senses after the surgery, but he will require a long rehabilitation period. This case highlights the importance of awareness regarding the dangers associated with consuming beverages containing liquid nitrogen and the necessity to adhere to safety measures during their preparation.

The necessity of safety in culinary practice

This incident raises concerns about the safety of culinary practices in entertainment venues and the need for clear instructions for staff. The use of liquid nitrogen in cocktails has become a popular trend; however, the lack of information about the risks can lead to serious injuries. It is essential for food service establishments to implement strict safety standards and educate their staff about potential hazards.
