People metabolize caffeine differently too. Not saying chugging the death lemonade is a good idea though.

As little as 3g can kill you. But some people can take as much as 10g.

I chugged an entire, room temperature, gallon of Dunkin Donuts coffee one time, which seems to be about 1,500mg.

I did not feel well for several hours after.

A lot of people in here that didn’t hear about that caffeine study mistake a few years ago where students were accidentally given thirty grams of pure caffeine by accident. Thirty goddamn cockshitting grams of caffeine at once. Over a solid ounce of dry, bitter, pure caffeine. Thirty-thousand-loving-milligrams.

The students had to be hospitalized, but they lived.

That is loving mind boggling. For reference, I've worked the night shift for over 15 years now and I used to drink two cans of Monster on the average day. I'm a big dude and I'd sometimes get the tinglies because two 16 oz. cans of Monster is 320mg of caffeine. The thought of downing 1000mg+ over a single day is just... WOW.

When I was in college, I stayed up all night studying for a final and was dead tired. I drank a 24oz cappuccino from a gas station and took several no doz pills. I was sweating profusely, had racing thoughts, couldn't stop tapping my feets and hands, and just felt like I was going to explode. Estimated it was about 1000-1500 mg, and it was a horrible feeling. I can't imagine doing that every day.

I used to hate coffee until I worked at my friend's coffee shop for a bit as a barista and acquired the taste for it.

His rule was if I hosed up the pour on a latte or cappuccino someone had to drink it so it didn't go to waste - he wasn't totally serious but I took it to heart as I hate food waste in general. One morning I messed up a few so ended up drinking like 4 or 5 coffees in a couple hours and learned the hard way about having too much caffeine in the system

Doesn't she say there's a free refill?

So she's probably only getting one or possibly only 2-3 if the refills are limited per drink.

I somehow managed to watch enough of the video to hear the bit that she gets free refills. She's one of those 'takes her laptop to a business and sits in the corner for 6 hours having paid for one thing' types, to add to the rest of her absolutely insufferable disposition

Back in high school, my buddies and I somehow found out that one gas station in a town 45 minutes away carried Jolt so four of us took a trip and bought like eight bottles each. Everyone was buzzed as poo poo on the way home just from one bottle.

No idea exactly how much it was but in high school before I got tested/treated for ADHD, I could legit drink an entire pot of coffee & be asleep like an hour later. I'd get a little boost from it but it was short-lived & I never could figure out why so many other people could have like 2-3 cups & be good for the day. Glad I got that poo poo sorted out before my heart exploded or something, the crash/headache after was definitely NOT worth it.

I only had four loko once but it was a memorable occasions. That is to say, I remember almost nothing from the night except what I've been told by my friends later. Highlights included passing out on the hood of a cop car outside a country bar in Orlando, and attempting to fight a man who interrupted me tying my shoe laces (my shoes didn't have laces).

Lady was drinking way more caffeine than she thought she was

That poo poo has more caffeine in it than iBrawndo! I had a case of it and I would struggle to drink a 16 oz can because my heart would start to hurt before I finished it.

Here are some of the ingredients in a single can. Lemon Lime, 200mg caffeine, Taurine, Inositol, amd Guarana. Its hard to find more about the ingredients since the website to buy it is down and I had to throw away the couple cans I had left because they exploded from old age.

Don't you tell me my business again.
I remember one time facing a 7 hour drive late at night and bought a pack of trucker speed. Yellowjackets or something. I took one, waited a half hour, was still tired, so I took another one and...holy poo poo. Even by the time I got home at like 5am, I was unable to sleep and felt disgusting. Wound up calling out sick from work even though I wasn't scheduled to start my shift until 3pm. It was miserable.
