You wont 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, couldnt move the big man. Fearing trouble with cops, they stole a piano cover from the lounge and draped it over Andres 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. Thats a beer every three minutes, non stop. Thats beyond epic. Its beyond the ken of mortal men.
I am sure many here are thinking he was drinking 'weak' beers.
Andre the Giant was AWESOME!
