"They say [on energy drink labels] don't have more than this much," Mr Penbross said.

"But they don't say if you have too much, what will happen."



This guy is a fucking tool, are you expecting something good to happen?

i drink sugar free rockstars, and 48oz is the equivalent to two cups of coffee. i drink one at about 8am, and one at about 7pm, cause i hit the gym at 10pm, and without it, id fall asleep on the treadmill.

but yeah, i get what you're saying.

im calling bullshit. there is something else that caused it, i have been to motocross races where they give red bull out free and consumed MORE than 8 in 5 hours, and been perfectly fine. he had some type of heart condition or something...

prolly because he knows he will be able to sue and make some cash.


its the same thing with the idiot that sued the ski resort in washington.

"they built it the wrong way"

they are just trying to get money out of it and you would prolly do the same.

i'm super sensitive to caffiene
if i have 6 ounces of black coffee in the morning(7:00-ish), i'll feel it till 3 PM
i have to slowwwwwwly drink 16oz energy drinks, and i usually don't finish them
i bought a jolt once, and every time i took a sip, i could feel it in my chest, making my heart beat faster

sketchy stuff

not the same situation, but this is another good reason not to mix liqour and energy drinks. i've heard of people dying from those drinks. i'll do jager bombs once in a while, but rarely.

i don't drink energy drinks in general. too expensive and unless i am active i usually don't feel much from them.

i just tried that sugar free stuff. i get that sugar-free feeling/taste in my mouth, which i dont really like. its just missing that generic really sugary taste, but i guess its better without the sugar... utilises more of the fatty acids in your bloodstream

ever tried rockstar juiced?

you should see what i posted on the first page...it's along those same lines. The whole red bull being a stimulant and alcohol being a depressant really really fucks you up if you drink too much.
