On the bright side, the decedent wasn’t so stupid as to dangle his legs over RR tracks.

An MIT student named Scott Krueger died from alcohol poisoning in a similar incident back in 1997. He died when is BAC went north of 0.4.

MIT ended up paying out $6 million as a settlement, of which $4.75 mil went to the dead man's parents.

I never took a bet where you’d 3 or 4 shots in a row. I figured I’d be the guy who got shot #3 halfway down and then blows it back out through his nose, I’ve seen that before. Stupid stuff you do in college, not smart.

Dieing from drinking an entire bottle of mild poison is not a tragedy but an expectation
