Alcohol often makes people behave stupidly.

According to the University of Birmingham, alcohol damages brain receptors, which leads to stupid drunken acts.

“Alcohol impairs the activity of the brain circuits that make us feel anxious and, at higher doses, alcohol inactivates a second set of brain circuits that control fear so threatening stimuli no longer seem quite so scary," the Daily Mail quoted professor Ian Mitchell as saying.

"Alcohol also compromises our ability to conpute risk so that situations we would normally shy away from may now seem quite inviting."
