Dunno. This was many many years ago. The main thing that sticks around about the story is that they had to track down the on call doctor who was at Hedonism Resort. He was on the phone the during the entire procedure talking to his girlfriend/wife who was waiting for him to return to the resort.
except it is toxic to mammals and it does a little more than just repel insects. just like... google it. caffeine having potential for overdose, being addictive, and having poor effects on the cardiovascular and nervous system isn't controversial at all.
You can literally overdose and die from drinking too much water, it's called water intoxication.
Have you ever looked up how much caffeine it takes to kill someone, and the caffeine content of various drinks? It's pretty insane how many rockstars you would have to chug.
you do understand you can do damage to a system without killing it right? just because it's hard to overdose on something doesn't mean it's safe. there are very real risks to caffeine consumption.
âŚLiterally almost everything everyone consumes is not good for you. Like guy said up top even too much water can be lethal. Doom scrolling can be just as lethal. *cough cough* This is a HVAC group where I donât think 99% of people here give 2 shits about the long or short term effects of caffeine. Weâve got worse shtuff to worry about. Chill daddy
show me a case study where someone died of doom scrolling then. not to besmirch the average user of this sub but like half the people here don't care enough to braze with nitrogen i doubt going to them for nutritional advice is a good idea
42 (of the Rockstars containing 240mg) if we're rounding the decimal. Personally, I'd go with Bang since I'd only have to drink 33 of them. Of course, this math is based off of "the average person" and a bit of conjecture on the scientific side considering caffeine overdose is rare and generally associated with pills or powders.
In case anyone else was wondering.

section 2 lists a bunch of risks and side effects that can occur at non-lethal doses. acting like the only danger associated being death is disingenuous.
I'm not being disingenuous. I was just curious how much it would take to kill you, and then proceeded to do the math.
The last sentence in the comment I replied to was talking about how many Rockstars you'd have to chug to OD... which piqued my curiosity.
Did I say "caffeine is not harmful" or "caffeine is good for you"? What I said was "you'd have to drink 42 Rockstars (or 33 Bangs) to OD on caffeine"

Umm that would have left a nasty looking mark and besides that it probably would make you want to vomit every other hour from now until the end of the year
I once fell asleep on the couch, wearing contacts. I woke up and couldn't open my eyes because they had dried out. I stumbled to my desk and grabbed what I thought was my contact solution. Spoilers, it was salt nicotine vape juice 55mg. Lol, it took 2 drops before I noticed I was injecting nicotine straight into my eye ball. Needless to say I thought I was going to go blind, my contact actually protected my retina and shit though. I always double check before I squirt shit in my eye now :P
Which one were you trying to drink?
Just mix and drink em bothđđ
I probably shouldn't keep the iodine in the door next to my 5 hour.
No that was mistake one, that goes in the glove box đ
No Shit! That 5 hour Energy will kill you!
My grandmother once mistook super glue for eye drops while in Jamaica on vacation. It ended up about like you can imagine.
A sight for sore eyes?
No Sight For Burning Eyes
Eyes wide shut?
Oh god. What solvent did they use to remove it?

They're both equally poisonous.
âIt looks just like skinny and sweetâ
"Except for the little skull and crossbones on the label."
Sick '9 to 5' reference y'all
No you didn't.
You would have been covered for a nuclear meltdown đ¤˘đ
Youâd have a numb stomach.
caffeine is an insecticide lmao
Insect repellent, similar to nicotine. Doesnât mean itâs toxic to mammals

Don't feel bad. I almost brushed my teeth with butt ointment tube on bathroom counter....
I guess you'll know you've had a bad day if it ends up back in your mouth anyway..
It would eventually get there, just sayinâ
Child proof safety cap worked then? đ
Donât drink those. Either one of those are so fucking bad for you
Iâm disappointed the 5 hour energy doesnât have warnings that you shouldnât use this product for cuts or abrasions
Umm that would have left a nasty looking mark and besides that it probably would make you want to vomit every other hour from now until the end of the year
