Funny story. Years ago we had a train derailment in my village. Tank cars carrying wood alcohol tumbled snd released their contents into the air. Three younger FIrefighters walked between the stopped cars to get to the station. They ingested enough of the stuff to be taken to the ER. As it turns out “ethyl alcohol.” Is the antidote. The were treated by IV and kept to a .2 BAC for three days. It was funny to see these guys so drunk. I remember them swearing off alcohol for a long time.
