World record-breaking alcohol intake
12.19.03 (2:27 pm)   [edit]
RIGA, Latvia (Reuters) - Latvian police said a drunk picked up with around twice the blood-alcohol level considered deadly had probably set a world record but would wake with a hangover to match.

The unidentified middle-aged man was unconscious but stable after a blood test showed 7.22 parts per million of alcohol, police spokeswoman Ieva Zvidre said.

An average person would vomit at around 1.2, lose consciousness at 3.0 and stop breathing at a level of about 4.0 parts per million, Zvidre said, adding: "This is one for the Guinness Book of Records."

The hospital's emergency ward head Martins Sics told reporters there was no record of anybody having survived such a dose, even in neighboring Russia which takes pride in its vodka-guzzling traditions.

"He won't remember a thing when he comes to," Sics said.
[LINE]I hope to break this new record on Monday. :wink:

well ... happy birthday 2 u. BTW I hope you didn't get one of those "21st birthday key" chains to hang around your neck. I remember many who wore it proudly to tell the world that they were finally 21 BUT they very quickly took it off as they would be bombared with too comments on their coming of age. And instaed of feeling like an adult they felt like teenagers tryignt o be all grown up :-)

I saw in the news about a month ago that some guy in Russia was in a vodka drinking contest, drank like half a gallon, went home and died immediately. At least he won.

Winning truly is all that matters. At least he made it home before dying.

I want to enter one of these contests (assuming the alcohol is free, of course). :)
