Vodka

Definatly water - he'd have thrown up whilst drinking it most probably :p

I downed around 70cl of tequila on holiday when i was 16, didnt throw up during as i didnt really taste it until i finished. Its a very strange feeling starting a short walk to the beach sobre and arriving 3mins later off my face. Long story short, vomited several times, made a **** of myself, vomited in some girls handbag, vomited in bed while i slept, slept in my own puke, woke up, vomited between 40-50 times the next day.

Lesson learnt! (though everyone thought i was a legend for downing it :p go me :rolleyes:)

lol, you guys are all girls.

But the things people are saying are just nonsense, why if its the same liquid would a shot not make you through up, but an entire bottle would? Does downing a bottle of water make you throw up automatically, while a shot's worth or water does? no? nonsense. likewise, you down a bottle of vodka, let me think, he will instantly absorb it all, in seconds, so pass out instantly.............. no, alcohol doesn't absorb that fast so theres entirely no reason for him to pass out either.

Rest snipped for space.

Gah, it's not even close to being the same thing. But sure we'll go with that anyway, drink a glass of coke then try downing a 2L bottle and see if you feel just the same after it? You're partially right, he wouldn't necessarily throw up after downing a bottle of spirits but the chances are massively higher that he would feel ill. Related to this I've watched a mate finish a 70cl bottle of vodka in rather less than half an hour and about 10 minutes after finishing that he looked like Bambi on ice so he had to be put to bed then he didn't wake up for another 6 hours or so - the point being that at the time vodka was his tipple of choice.

It could be possible to down a bottle of vodka but for the effects not to be visible, particularly on a 17 year old seem a shade unlikely.

yes but again, your friend might have liked vodka, but not ever drunken much and not gotten used to it. You can drink vodka only exclusively for years, but only have 5 shots a night and drinking 6 times that amount and you'll be drunk. Drink a 70cl's bottles worth frequently for a year or two, and drinking that much becomes pretty damn easy. Also whose to say he did it on an empty stomach, even a hardcore drinker might find himself passed out after that, but if he's gone ahead and eaten himself a nice large pizza right before hand half of it will be absorbed right into the food and take hours to be absorbed with the food in the intestines rather than right through the stomach wall. Theres dozens of variables that mean you could easily get drunk, throw up OR be fine drinking that much tbh.
 
I drank a litre bottle of vodka between a mate and I in about 45 minutes once.

No idea what happened after that, I woke up in alone in a car park. Had to phone friends (just about managed that) to get me to safety because I just couldnt move, turns out they were in the middle of a massive garden party, carried me there and I slept through laying right in the middle of it all on a deck chair with a bowl in my lap.

My friend woke up hours later but was only 5 mins away from where i woke on the side of some banking with nothing left in his pockets. My rescue party walked straight passed him not seeing him at all. :(

Funny thinking back, but never again.
 
I'm a big fan of Russian Standard (Russky Standart)... Belvedere and Grey Goose is what we always have in the clubs and they're good but they're not particularly special.
 
He is lucky to still be here, 26 units of alcohol in a minute, it would probably have given him alcohol poisoning if not cardiac arrest. He wouldn’t have been left standing unless he was an alien. The bottle didn’t contain alcohol.
 
I think it was water too.

Me and my mate where downing shot after shot of vodka when we were out once, I had enough after about 12 shots and order a pint, he however still had five left on a tray, and whilst I was ordering my pint, he downed the rest, I turned around from the bar to see a massive crowd of people and thought 'Oh eye, what's going on here then', I barge my way to the front, to see my mate passed put on the floor of this club, next thing I know bouncers are coming over and carrying him off to a sideroom to sober up, I had to phone his mum to come and pick us up, she was not impressed, he was covered in sick by the time she came to pick us up. :o

And if I tell you that my mate did drink quite a lot of vodka? I'm quite well aware it is possible to drink a full bottle of vodka to oneself during a night but drinking it in what was apparantly less than a minute and exhibiting no ill effects while mixing in other drinks is stretching the bounds of credibility even if you are a regular drinker (nb and at 17 I'd hope they aren't a regular drinker to excess).

//edit and with your theory that volume doesn't increase your likelihood of feeling ill - have you ever tried the Centurion/hour of power type challenge? A shot of beer per minute for 100 minutes (works out to be about 4 pints depending on the measures you use, 25ml or 35ml) and most people I've ever met who've tried it have a very healthy respect for how difficult it is. 4 pints isn't amazingly heavy going inside an hour but it is a combination of alcohol, lack of a break and the extra air ingested that makes it a challenge.

I've done it before, a lot harder than you'd expect. All but one of my mates had to give up. I did it first time xD - Although nearly gave up around 70 on opening a new bottle from the fridge that was hard to swallow :p
 
water - downing that much alcohol in such a small space of time would kill a lot of people. Even an alcoholic would be totally wasted within 10 minutes!
 
this isnt a big thing, while not drinking it within a minute ive had 700ml of smirnoff to myself in 30 minutes or so

downing that much alcohol will not kill a lot of people :rolleyes:

Next time he wants to do this you do one of the following....

A) Take the bottle off him and try to down it....assuming its water then you will look like a hero also, if not you can just stop as the Vodka is nasty :p

B) Hand him a bottle of Vodka yourself :)

only last year a student here downed a pint of vodka and almost died - if his friends hadn't taken him to hospital he would have died say the doctors. sure its different for regular heavy drinkers but still pretty dangerous to have so much alcohol in such a small space of time.
 
Impossible you are telling me 70cl of vodka had no effect on his body, the vodka has to go some where and it will go to the liver, he must have 3 livers if he doesnt get drunk from drinking a 70cl bottle of vodka, tell him to get see the doctor he could be a walking medical miracle.
 
I remember the days of doing shots of cheap wine, lol!

I also vaguely remember the time I downed half a bottle of brandy, and was violently ill within a minute of doing so, waking up with my head in the toilet 6 hours later and being down a girlfriend.....

It was water!

I was asking drunkenmaster really but as I suspect I've told you before you are quite clearly a medical miracle - alcohol doesn't faze you, emotion does not touch you and your abilities at any given task never cease to astound me.

I know the challenge is quite do-able but most people that I've ever met do not find it easy, you might be an exception to disprove the rule but I certainly wouldn't be betting the house on it.
 
I did a 70cl bottle of Tesco value Vodka 2 weeks ago and survived, although didn't down it - was spread across 2 hours or so. I think it depends on the brand of vodka, Tesco's own is awful!

To the OP - I think it may have been watered down vodka for him to try and prove himself, not quite sure exactly what though!
