You can die from drinking too much water do we need to ban that too?

I would like to try it sometime. Red Bull does absolutly nothing for me even after I drink 2 cans so I guess I need something stronger

Ban DHMO now!

I wanted to get some of this the other day.

Contacted the company to see if I could order a pallet, and they never responded

Try again, then let use know because there's a few who want it!

Ironic Namesake · 27 Sep 2006 at 23:57

I've tried again!

Can't seem to find contact phone number for the manufacturer anywhere

Fantastic sales idea! That's the sort of dynamite idea that sets people up for life. I'm very jealous!

I get heart palpatations when I drink too much red bull or red rooster.

This sounds like a death trap!

Same, even if I have a couple cups of coffee. It like my heart forgets how to work.

I think a lot of bars are going to stock this, now 8 pints of lager, and vodka Cocaine is not a good mix, drunks going mental and stamping on peoples heads for hours.

Pff, basically are they annoyed with the name or the caffeine content?

Red Bull is a marketing triumph TBH, I drink this:

Made by Coca-Cola Co and I get it for 75p a can, equivalent to 3 Red Bulls and I like the flavour (wierd).

Water is omportant for a healthy body. Caffeine (in the quantities we're talking here) isnt.

I would like to try it sometime. Red Bull does absolutly nothing for me even after I drink 2 cans so I guess I need something stronger

Thats not a good sign - it shows your body is building up a resistance to caffeine.

Why not take a couple of weeks off it, and you'll find that you'll be back to getting a buzz off a single cup of coffee?
