I'll have to disagree with the age range, I've seen high school kids get a whipping that helped straighten them out. But, as you said, it needs to be used under the proper circumstances and it definitely needs to not be an emotional reaction, but rather a corrective one.
A whipping by another HS student is understandably a measure that occurs but young adults respond better to fear than actual physical contact. You'd have to use some pretty serious punishment to have much of an effect, especially with their attitudes. I mean these idiots jump off roofs and crack their walnuts just for Youtube attention. I'd try alternative punishments that embarrass them because being "cool" is one of the most important things for teenagers anyway. Make them wear a silly hat all day that says "I'm a retard".
