Boozing

Many years ago I was making a toasted sandwich.

While I was waiting for the cheese to melt, I decided to chug as much of a bottle of Stroh as I could, straight from the neck.

I remember walking into the kitchen and starting the sandwich. My next memory is waking up around lunchtime the following day.

My behaviour for the remainder of the evening, I'm told, was hilarious.

Yes I did that in my twenties with a liter WVO. Needless to say I ended up in hospital with alcohol poisoning and got very very sick - almost to I point where I got a heart attack. Slipped in and out of a coma and puked my lungs out. If it wasn't for the quick reaction of some friends...
I never ever want to experience that again

To add, it's probably the second most dumbest thing I've ever done. Please don't even consider the idea

What's the first?
 
Should be possible...not safely mind you but possible. I'd imagine reduced liver function for life & a couple years shorter lifespan.

I'm betting it starts either with "hold my beer" or "i dare you".

or 'fsck it' :D
 
For a regular drinker it would not just be possible but safe. What usually kills people is throwing up but not being able to wake up so they suffocate. There's also other factors that would have an effect like rate of absorption (different for everyone) and whether or not they ate before. Believe it or not but it's possible to actually die from not having alcohol in your system because your brain is so used to it.

Care to prove that statement?

Never mind the bottle part - just in principle. afaik alcohol tolerance only goes up in terms of perceived drunkness, not the actual medical effect. i.e. You still screw over your liver no matter how much "practice" you've got.

Short term alcohol poisoning is not about the effect on your liver but on depression of your central nervous system. If you survive it your liver will cope. The more you drink the more your brain gets used to it. It's the same effect with drug addiction. After a while the brain starts to counter the effects and you need to be on a high just to feel normal.
 
Possible.

But it will probably bounce back up rather quickly.

There was some youtube channel where the guy would down a different bottle of booze each week.
 
I got alcohol poisoning by downing 1/2 a bottle of Russian Bear Vodka when I was 16. A mate and I figured we can't buy mix so we'll just down the bottle between the 2 of us. We both passed out where we were sitting in his folks lounge. Woke up the following morning in Hospital both of us. Our folks were not impressed :D

I have a very specific question which might get answered on this forum. Is it humanly possible to down a bottle (750ml) of brandy in one go? Some friends shared a video of somebody doing it and I suggested it might be another substance (like tea), since you cannot see the actual breaking of the bottle's seal (even though it can be heard in the video). I have been demoted to black sheep of the Whatsapp group after that.

Has anybody seen somebody actually doing this and not die? We can discuss the macho aspect of this afterwards, I just want to know if this can be done or not.

Yes, and so is trainsurfing.

I downed a bottle of Captain Morgan Spiced Gold when I was 18, got absolutely smashed really quickly, but didn't get sick, partied for a few hours, drinking just Coke. I was at some student party and they had Blueworld or Thunda or something taking photos at this party back then, I was in 95% of the photos of that album. I would probably have to be rushed to the E.R. if I had to do that now.

Spiced Gold contains less alcohol than your regular spirit. just sayin' :D
