I woud like to drink 10 cans and see what happened.

She bought it from an off license.

10 cans would just make you ill and throw up, the body can't handle that much caffeine. 3 cans is the daily maximum they recommend I think.

You would just be sick...

Sounds like a challenge.

A girl at college drank two cans off that at lunch time. 45 minutes later she was climbing the walls. First time she had ever drank a stimulant drink, her trip ended with projectile vomiting. :\

Sounds like a plan to me! Anyone game?

I can't find the page on erowid anymore (read i cba to trawl through a shed load of pages) but the lower estimate for the human LD50 of caffeine is 3g. Seems like quite a risky challenge!

a tenner says i can eat more caffeine than you and stay alive

Staying alive doesn't bother me.
I'm just curious.

Sounds like something that would be good to see happen at the Swansea meet, if your all going?

Tenner says I'll drink more of the stuff than both of you of the stuff

Drink 4-8 cups of coffee a day, often when out 6-7 cans of red bull

Anyway ... red bull and coffee should do the trick no problems

I've never drunk coffee, but looking at some t'internet chart it contains like 65-100mg caffeine (instant). Maybe time to start doing so! Diet Coke is a meisly 45mg (usual tipple whilst at work).

When I worked 12 hour nightshifts I often stayed awake for 36 hours. All I needed was light regular meals and plenty of fruit.

Caffine never really made that much difference other than to make me a bit restless and maybe a bit more tired as it wore off.

What goes up must come down.

tend to avoid cafeine these days, bar exam times previously so i was alert for the morning papers.

ive managed 36hrs before, dunno why i did it, but the second i sat down and stopped i was out like a light

If you do start to fall asleep when/if you sit down then get your mind working on some Sudoku puzzles or just do some sums in your head e.g. Run through your timestables

Smiley Man · 13 Nov 2006 at 01:23

I think I had a bit too much :eek:

40 hours and only just a tad sleepy

caffeine overdose isn't nice guys

auditory hallucinations, convulsions and tinnitus

I will try to go to sleep soon but its not nice at all

I reckon I took about 1000mg over 10 hours :eek:
