Drinking a lot.

Yeah..let's just get to the story. June 26, 2010, I drank about.. 25-28 FL. oz of 54-proof alcohol all in a period of about 3 minutes tops. All of the math and research I have done suggests that I should have gotten extremely sick, passed out, blacked out, etc, as well as death being a very likely outcome. However, all that happened was I had small brownouts whenever I was physically moving(just couldn't remember what was going on while I was moving), I threw up a little, and then I stayed up until I would have gone to bed regularly before finally just going to bed for four or five hours. When I awoke, I felt no indication that I was heavily intoxicated the day before. Is it normal?

    It's normal because you didn't drink very much at all.

    I drank almost two bottles of 151.
    Woke up in a cell with no shoes, belt, or cigs... Your tolerance is high but don't push it. I am very lucky I didn't kill/hurt anyone with my wreak less behavior.
    Do yourself a favor and quit while the quittins good..... That stuff is poison.....

  • 25 shots is a lot to drink but since it was 54 proof it wasn't that much. I mean it was a lot but I'm not that surprised you didn't die. I wouldn't think you would. That's like taking maybe 12-14 shots of regular liquor. A lot to drink and definitely risking puking or maybe even alcohol poisoning if you drink it fast enough but not enough to just flat out kill you or anything. First I read it and thought it was 25 shots of regular liquor. That would most likely kill you almost instantly if you took 25 shots of 100 proof or whatever. It's stupid to drink as much as you did though. Don't do it again, you could end up getting alcohol poisoning

    Everyone's body reacts differently to alcohol intake, and when I first read your post I did misread it and was lead to believe you drank 25 oz of 54% alcohol and I was like "damn thats a shit load of alcohol" but after reading the comments, yeah that really isnt that much. I say just enjoy what you're drinking but know your own limits. If you're worried about drinking then reduce your intake

    I'm not an expert on this, but what the other people have said on here seems to indicate that you really didn't drink THAT much. And if that's the case, then normal. Everyone is different in terms of how much alcohol their body can process and how quickly. Some people, they get drunk almost immediately and some others take awhile to start feeling the effects. So for you, most likely normal.

    54 PROOF alcohol is only 27 % alcohol so really it's not THAT much. Basically you drank a bottle of a high wine. Not that big of a deal.
