It isn’t so easy to overdose on alcohol. Your body will reject it (vomit) or you will pass out before that limit is reached unless you are binging on a dare/initiation with so called ‘friends’.

It’s a hell of a lot easier ingest a fatal overdose of alcohol than it is a fatal dose of marijuana.

“It isn’t so easy to overdose on alcohol. Your body will reject it (vomit) or you will pass out before that limit is reached unless you are binging on a dare/initiation with so called ‘friends’.”

It’s pretty easy. Passing out does not save you from overdosing, because at that point, you have already consumed plenty of alcohol. It may actually be more danagerous, because now, if you vomit while passed out, you can suffocate.

As for vomiting, unless you vomit immediately after chugging some alcohol, it is going to do little to prevent an overdose. Alcohol does not need to be digested by your body, it is absorbed directly into the bloodstream. So by the time you vomit, all the alcohol may already be in your system.

When you talk about vomiting and/or losing consciousness because of alcohol, you're describing an overdose. Overdosing does not always result in a fatality.
