My wife thinks it’s hilarious when I drink an energy drink. I’m normally a pretty quiet guy but a jolt of caffeine like that makes me pretty hyper. I looked it up recently and apparently if you drink enough of them it will kill you. According to energyfiend.com if I drink 130 cans of my favorite energy drink in a row it will kill me. I suppose that there are a lot of things that would kill me if I drank 130 cans of them in a row.
o.0 y’know I always seem to imagine Biff as a very relaxed guy, every time I see him he seems so mellow no matter the situation. So this just makes him look crazy strong.
i frequently drink half a dozen gatorades a day, and i do (not) work out or exercise in the least. i am also not fat. i thank my genes for a powerful metabolism and kidneys of steel.
I don’t use energy drinks; I’m hyper normally (diagnosed ADHD) and I don’t think anybody would take the risk of letting me have some, even if there’s a chance it would calm me down. I pull all-nighters by waking up at 3 in the afternoon and having internet access.
Caffeine knocks me out in 15 minutes (You can almost set a timer to it)
Root Beer and energy drinks do NOT taste alike. I love root beer (btw: Barq’s is the only root beer with caffeine) but I hate the taste of all energy drinks. The only time I drink them is when I need to guarantee that I’ll be able to sleep (whether for a big paper the next day, or early-morning work.)
Fun fact: Chugging a mere 10 liters of water within 30 minutes will result in fatal blood loss for an average-size person.
Bah energy drinks don’t make me hyper
don’t know why but all they do is make me worse XD
Mmm I love my energy drinks. My mom hates them because the news made a story that said energy drinks kill, and I told mom “the kid died because he drank 100 some cans in a row and then ate candy.” She still thinks that me sipping my Monster will make me drop dead -_-
The first time I had Bawls I was awake for 2 days!
It wasn’t even my first energy drink. Before that I had about 30 other various energy drinks. (over half a year though, not at once. That would kill me!)
according to that site it would take 60 cans of my fav rockstar juic to kill me, but it tastes really good, I am yet to find a soda to replicate the taste of those rockstars
Though it may not be all that likely you’d kill yourself by downing a lethal dose of caffeine via your favorite energy drink, remember not to indulge in such drinks when exercising. Whether caffeine acts as a stimulant or a depressant for you, it is still a diuretic. It would be unwise to consume many energy drinks when exercising, particularly if you’re not drinking water, too.
I’ve never had an energy drink … when I was little and played soccer I used to be addicted to candy, but now I don’t drink caffeinated tea, coffee, energy drinks, pop, etc. The one thing I consume for instant sugar high is dark chocolate … I can’t give that up. And I’ve read studies that say it’s healthy anyway. x)
Wow Look at his last finger on the hand that is not holding anything, is it cut or broken or something?
I recently ahd to rush a friend to a 24hr medical centre when she got the shakes and heart palpitations halfway through her 2nd energy drink. Not a pleasant evening..
I used to drink energy drinks all the time, when I worked nights. It actually takes me between one and a half to two weeks of drinking one triple size monster to become addicted to caffeine, and then it takes me a week of none to lose the addiction. I played lots of games with my body and energy drinks. I am also ADHD, so having one normal sized one actually slows me down, the second hits me like they hit everyone else, and a third throws me into orbit. (Think the squirrel in “Over the Hedge”) I’ve found that eating right before indulging in the energy drinks prevents any crash, but also throws my metabolism into “CONSUME” mode. I will eat nearly anything in such cases, even if it’s questionable in taste or safety.
on a normal basis i intake hardly ANY caffine. so when i pick up a caffinated pop or an energy drink im freaking hilarous and talk nonstop about everything that zips thru my head for about four hours before i stop dead and fall asleep for another hour. then i’m back to normal…
