Red Bull

I know I know ... not healthy at all. Last two finals tomorrow and I can finally go on summer break.

So anyways ... I was wondering ... HOW unhealthy is drinking 3 cans in 24 hours? Isn't it just sugar and caffeine? I had one last night around 2AM, one this afternoon around 1PM, and I'm on my third right now (midnight).
 
Heh, you'll be fine.

I've had a good 6 or 7 in an hour as part of vodka/red bull mixes.

You have a frail mind and hence are prone to Red Bull's placebo effects 😉
 
it's not that bad...
i've had 3-4 in a couple of hours and i'm still alive.
just don't do this every night.

Oh of course not.

I have two months of vacation after 12:30pm tomorrow! 😀

Won't need RB for a while.

Finals?? Where do you go to school? I've been on vacation since the 20th of May. Dont worry about the Bull's, I use to have 3-4 a day, but cant afford that now.

I'm in high school in Southern CA. Most public schools got off last week, but my school gets off this week since we had a lot of unnecessary holidays and late starts and half days.

Well, I heard that some people died a few years ago after drinking lots of Red Bull or something, so I was just making sure 😉
 
Long as you don't knock back one every few hours you'll be fine. Oh and don't mix with stuff like pro-plus either, or you'll be flying....

Pretty much the only thing you have to worry about is the high caffeine content. Make sure you keep hydrated by drinking other liquids in addition to the Red Bull, and yea it's probably not a good idea to drink a 6-pack before running a marathon. :thumbsup:🙂
 
Come back when you've done three double vodka Redbulls and then a triple vodka redbull after a night on the lager...

So when it's legal for me to drink?

Hopefully AT will still be around in 2011.

i drank a red bull at mile 20 in the L.A. marathon last year

great boost of energy but i died at around mile 24 (heat)

last 2.2 miles were excruciating
 
On finals day in my Chemistry class (highschool), as a joke my friend and I both downed 2 redbulls in ~2 minutes. Our teacher is dead set against them, so we thought it would be amusing. He just shook his head. Now, I get to see him next year!

I took a Red Bull to school today in case of emergency. I had my math final between 10:30 and 12:30 ...

I finished at around 12:20 and waited for the bell to ring ... I took my RB from under my desk and put it on top. My teacher, an avid marathoner and long distance and mountain biker saw it and pointed at me and shook his head.

And that's the last memory that he'll have of me in his class. Yep.
 
bahahaha, come back after you've drank 8 cans in 12 hours noob =P


(only time i'll get to say it on these forums, so i took full advantage and called you a noob)
 
Yes, caffeine rules.

And redbull doesen't contain nearly enough of it. :frown:
 
Pussy... 😉

So, did you need to take out a loan to buy those? Those freakin things are like $10 for 4 in the local grocery store... :thumbsdown:

Really? I can find them for $1.99 a piece just about anywhere here. still expensive though.
 
A can of redbull only contains 85mg of caffeine.

Meh. I'd rather just take a caffeine pill at 200mg. 😀 Much, much cheaper, too.
 
Yeah, in the local grocery store it's like ~$9-$10 for a four pack...

I haven't really looked but I just assumed it would be cheaper for a 4 pack than buying them individually. Even $2 each though is steep for the amount you get...little pussy cans. 😉

Give me a 20oz Red Bull for $2 and I would be so there...😉
