A man taken hostage by the alleged Boston bombers after he was car jacked was able to escape after they stopped to buy cans of Red Bull at a gas station, MailOnline can reveal.
The carjacking victim, whose name has not been revealed, has told authorities that being Chinese almost certainly saved his life, saying that the brothers told him they would not kill him because he was 'not American.'
The victim was able to jump out of the car and flee while Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, looked to buy cans of the energy drink and chocolate bars.
From interviews with the staff at both gas stations and court records, MailOnline has been able to piece together the frantic events of the early hours of last Friday.
The terrifying sequence of events began when Tamerlan carjacked a Mercedes SUV car at gun point barely 40 minutes after MIT campus police officer Sean Collier was killed as he sat in his patrol car.
Tamerlan jumped into the passenger seat of the Mercedes and told the driver: 'Did you hear about the Boston explosion... I did that.'

He wasn't released. He escaped, probably because the Borat brothers hadn't slept in a while. They were feeding him soothing words the way a farmer soothes livestock before delivering the killing blow. I assume he wasn't killed right away because they needed a driver, and figured he might be useful as a hostage or as a human shield.
That’s not an SUV in that pic. That’s a sedan.
Ahh.. apparently they were in 2 cars..

Good question..probably.
I don’t think they got the “racist” memo.
Thank you. That is absolutely hilarious, despite the tragedy of it all.
>>I love Red Bull.
Uhuh. Let us know how much your adrenals are still loving it in a few years.

ESAD is a double entente - the lesser known meaning being that if you do, you will. Good luck with that.
How I Evolved on Guns During the #BostonPoliceScanner Manhunt - My family won't be vulnerable if an evil man like Dzhokhar Tsarnaev shows up at our door.
So much for the academic myth of "white privilege".
They were probably lying about not eventually killing the guy. Abductions that end in killings generally involve perps soothing their victims to ensure cooperation. The vic escaped, probably because the Borat brothers may not have slept for a while - hence the Red Bull expedition.
I have been drinking 2 to 8 Red Bulls daily for 9 years. Shouldn't I be having symptoms by now?
How long does it take for adult onset diabetes to become symptomatic?
YMMV
Did they buy skittles?
>>Shouldn’t I be having symptoms by now?
Maybe the self-reported fact that you need 2 to 8 cans of “energy” a day to do the standard chores of a house wive is a clue. Have you tried going without it? Folks react differently to being decaffed cold-turkey.
Adrenal fatigue is no bull:

The answer to your question would require longterm observation of physiological measurements such as BMI, BP, Resting HR, blood levels - and some measure of performance against a baseline.
Would you say that Mr. Jihadist’s behavior is more indicative of a fool burning the candle at both ends — or someone who more wisely follows the maxim “moderation in all things”?
