Tis funny how a pint of Vodka can kill you, but they don't put poison warnings
on the bottle, or even info on rushing victim to hospital as other much less
poisonous liquids have to.
I guess they presume we all know that, but how about a maximum dose
warning?

 

[Thorwyn]

Because the maximum dose is different from person to person and because they probably want to avoid people to try and see how close they can get to this limit, or even worse, create the impression that anything below that limit is safe.

Surely everyone has had a pint of "top shelfer" bought for them on their birthday?

Downed a pint of vodka and three shots of tequila once before going out with some mates at Uni.

Had a great night

I'm ashamed that no one has said this;

New record in bed Lamp?

On another note;

"Davies fell into a drunken stupor following the binge and was taken home by a friend to sleep it off."

If this is the same friend who earlier saw him take a pint of vodka...silly goose.

Think the guy had a bit more to drink too adn the legal high surely didn't help, even if they say it's no a contributing factor. High/drunk = stupid things.

All strong alcohol should carry warnings on the label. When I was 15 a girl I knew Diane Turner died after drinking 750cl of vodka and going into shock. Granted she was a petite girl and so it is alot of vodka for someone that size but still it is horrific to think that someone has died from drinking less vodka in one night than you yourself have had.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Well if people don't know that a certain amount of alcohol chuffed in a particular amount of time is dangerous, they shouldn't be drinking

'despite efforts to stop him'

haha they obviously was all like Chug Richard Chug!

Most I managed to down in one go is about half a bottle of single malt.
It came back up in about 10 seconds.

I've never really enjoyed alcohol since then.

I've never really enjoyed alcohol since then but I am partial to the odd gallon of diesel down my gullet.

Edited for clarity.
