And bowing to peer pressure and doing things that are not safe, such as alcohol, drugs, stunts and other activities can certainly result in physical harm and even death.

What happens when you get beaten?

You get really hurt most times, both physically and mentally. Some injuries will be minor and some will be so bad that they will change your life forever, Try your best to avoid it but if you can't, then try to talk to someone who you trust and don't let it get bad enough that it becomes too late to stop it. If you don't have anyone to trust, then you need to talk to your school's guidance councillor or to the police if it gets that out of hand. Please don't use violence unless it will save you from being terribly hurt, and avoid provocing the attacker(s). I hope you don't get beaten up and that it was just pure curiosity that drove you to ask this question.
