Dram Laws here would most certainly hold the bartender legally responsible.

A guy I knew in Alaska had a blood alcohol level of .47. Sadly, he was floating face down in the harbor at the time.

Did he make the Guinness Book of Records? He did become a Darwin finalist.

I did 22 shots of tequila once in a five way bet. I won. Played monopoly afterwards. Don’t remember the outcome.
Now the smell would cause palpitations.

That amount seems impossible to imbibe in one setting.
What an idiot, in a group of idiots.

I too blame the British. The French are never wrong.

If the guy who held the record at 55 shots didn’t die then how can the prosecution say that the bartender should have known 56 was fatal?

I drank a shipload of 151 rum on my 18th birthday, after downing a whole bunch of other drinks. The smell of rum gives me the shivers to this day.

It was the guy’s own fault for not knowing his tolerance level. While an 18 year old may not know it yet, after a few years you pretty much know what your limits are.
Myself, I can go through 3/4 of a bottle of wodka with no problems -and on a daily (nightly?) basis. Did it for years with no ill effects, not even a hangover. Sadly, I have had to cut back in recent years after repeated warnings that the human liver was not immune to the effects of such repeated demands upon its resources.
You just have to know your limits. Oh, and it was a LARGE bottle (1.5L), not the smaller one (750mL).

If he was drinking alone, he should have been by himself.

Dang - 55 shots?
Before I got sober I would often drink a bottle of Jim Beam in one evening (solo) - a quart is what, 32 oz? But that's a far cry from 55 shots....

lol. It WAS GREAT being 18. Built like a Greek God (now I’m bloated like the Greek debt) tons of girls, practically no responsibilities, could drink Alabama slammers endlessly, every now and then get into a brawl, get to sleep at 5am, and wake up at 9 and go to work :) :)

don’t remember at all lol. Was at Christine’s house (future girlfriend) waiting for current HOT gf from jersey shore to come, did the contest, played monopoly, girl from Jersey finally got there and screamed and yelled something about me not picking her up or caring about her or something, who the hell knows, left her there and went to the Caves (club)with friends.
