Case Study - What happens when you shot a dozen red bull™.

I recently began to wonder about the effects of shotting different non alcoholic liquids, so some friends and I set out to unravell the mysterious unknown. Our first brain wave was Red Bull™, so we bought a dozen cans each, set up some shots and began to experiment.

First hour.
First through third cans.

Nothing really happened during this time, no one logged any throne time and no ill effects were noted other then a slight increase energy.

Second hour.
Fourth through sixth cans.

This was where the fun began. One friend nearly burst the banks and rushed to the almighty porcelain bucket, while another began to fidget seriously, talking a hundred words a minute. As I regularly drink high amounts of caffeine, the drink was taking it's time to work.

Third hour.
Seventh through ninth cans.

Someone threw up during this period. The puke was a sickly diseased yellow and had annonymous chunks throughout, strange enough for someone who started the experiment not having eaten in nearly ten hours. Notably higher usage of the toilet occured and several people began to jump up and down in an attempt to use the excess energy. We turned the music up and used it as an excuse to mosh.

Fourth hour.
Tenth through twelth cans.

We're all seriously wondering wether this was a good idea. One friend reports neon green piss, another regurgitates a bottomless black pit and yet another is bouncing around on the trampoline like his life depends on it. I'm feeling quite giddy by this time, flying on a caffeine high that's actually more like things have sped up a bit. It's more like being a hyperactive ten year old whose been fed too many red frogs and I have experienced the neon green toilet visions. We've far surpassed the 'safe' daily dosage and fear that the caffeine may have lasting effects. If we ever decide to do anything that stupid again, someone, please knock us out till we see sense. It just goes to show that there are warnings on things for a reason, most of the time.
