Can you imagine what the 3rd guy must feel like atm if he didn't get in the car because there wasn't enough room? That's gonna be some mindfuck.

I don't think that 3rd guy, if there is one, would feel anything atm considering that he died.

Unless you're doing it right.

On second thought, that can be bad too.

Hours before. HOURS. Dude could have been sober in the car.

IIRC, it was ~2 hours.

He really looks plastered in the pic.

He might not be, but it's not an unreasonable conclusion.

He might just be very tired, which is also deadly for driving.

Reminds me of people who supposedly are experienced drinkers and can "hold their liquor" better than regular people.

People will actually ride with these folks because they are experienced drinkers and they can "hold their liquor" better.

Well, they can't.

We dont' even know who the other person in the car was or who was driving. Hell, two hours is plenty of time to sober up from being plastered unless you've got 14 tons worth of aluminum in the garbage can from the 70,000 beers you drank or something.

Everyone in this thread is jumping to conclusions about whether he was drunk, whether he was even driving.

Oh please, he was probably drunk out of his mind. It's not like those guys are known for their rigid adherence to safety guidelines that it is entirely out of character that he would drive drunk. And what is the excuse for going 110mph?

The average man metabolizes 4-6 drinks in two hours. Getting trashed usually involves more drinks than that.

Maybe he was going 110mph because he was a jackass? Even sober these guys are the type who do stupid shit for fun. I've seen all the movies, they risk their lives in a lot of the stunts they do. I could see him being totally sober and going 110 just because he has a Porsche.

i, along with most posters, have absolutely no qualms about jumping to the conclusion that this guy was hammered when he wrecked his car at 110 mph, after drinking in a bar (which was confirmed). it's as if we've seen his self-destructive behavior on tv for years and years, and that we can deduce (being drunk) slots in between (drinking in a bar) and (dying in a car crash).

You're assuming he was driving.

You're assuming the other unknown person in the car wasn't driving. You're assuming the other person in the car was (or was not) drunk.

We don't have these answers yet.
