Lol! Dumbass.
A teenager has turned off the life-support machine of a fellow hospital patient because he said he couldn't sleep with the noise.
Frederik Moelner's attempts to get some kip were interrupted by the noisy machine that was keeping the 76-year-old in the neighbouring bed breathing.
So the 17-year-old, who ended up in the intensive care ward after he was involved in a car crash decided to turn it off, reports Ananova.
Luckily medical staff at the hospital in Southern Germany quickly realised what had happened, and reconnected the lucky pensioner who survived.
They then contacted local police who are now investigating.

This or they should have smothered the fuck with a pillow.
If they locked him he could be smothered while biting the pillow.
she's 76 and it's fucking breathing for her, she's pretty much dead anyway. just wasting space and money. FUCK HER
Have you ever tried to sleep in a hospital? It is very difficult.
The hospital should not have been crowding two people in the same room like that. When you are not doing well, you need privacy and quiet! I can certainly understand that the boy just got frustrated at the intrusive noise. Being stuck in a place with some continuous annoying noise that is beyond one's control can drive one near to insanity.
The old person did not have long to live anyway.
Oh hi Anders. It looks like the conspiracy has been debunked everyone. Make up a new reason that zoklet is down.
On topic: Correct it is nearly impossible to sleep in a hospital. I don't think I'd take someone off of life support over it though.
Did you seriously just feed that troll?
Holy fuck this.
He might be a horrible person for doing this, but who's idea was it to keep these people alive?
What social or economical value does a 76 year old guy that has to be in a hospital, hooked to a machine to live bring to the world?
It matters if he was going to recover and be able to live life outside of a hospital, but if they were just keeping him alive for shits and giggles, it's rather pointless. The money keeping him alive could to go better causes. Sure, it's sad, but please think about it realistically. I would never want to be in that state.
Exhale! Your really quite out of it when your doped up on that Morphine. Obviously the guy was ready to leave the ICU if he was able to get out of bed and walk across the room. Crazy shit happens in the hospital..
