Could you complete the 12 can challenge?

You won’t find it in the Guinness Book of World Records, but Andre the Giant holds the world record for the largest number of beers consumed in a single sitting. These were standard 12-ounce bottles of beer, nothing fancy, but during a six-hour period Andre drank 119 of them. It was one of the few times Andre got drunk enough to pass out, which he did in a hallway at his hotel. His companions, quite drunk themselves, couldn’t move the big man. Fearing trouble with cops, they stole a piano cover from the lounge and draped it over Andre’s inert form. He slept peacefully until morning, unmolested by anyone. Perhaps the hotel people thought he was a piece of furniture.

Think about it: 119 beers in six hours. That’s a beer every three minutes, non stop. That’s beyond epic. It’s beyond the ken of mortal men.

I am sure many here are thinking he was drinking 'weak' beers.

Andre the Giant was AWESOME!

No, it's just not good beer.

Agreed, it's not cheap but it's not great. I like it though. It's one of the cheaper imports available here @ $16 for a 12 pack. I like it better out of the cans but those aren't available here.

I can polish off the entire pack in 12 minutes. One minute for each can.

I do not drink alcohol. I did however finish 12 energy drinks in 6 hours once. I thought my heart was going to explode.

Once finished around 20 energy drinks mixed with vodka in like 3 hours, didn't feel a thing from the energy drinks but the booze got to me

I can't understand how people drink that much. It's not the booze that gets me, it's the volume of fluid. I could drink the equivalent of booze in shots no problem, but that much fluid in my stomach just makes me sick.

2 -3 beers max for me and my stomach looks pregnant and I feel bloated.

in a case race in college I did 16 in about 3 hours since my partnet started yakking at the 2 hour mark

I was smaller and a freshman, so a n00b to drinking. by sr year I could do a case in 4 hours

now that I am old and out of drinking shape, I would think the 2-3 hour window is still attainable
