This is my home.

you don't care that this dude almost died? it doesn't matter is he's a lightweight or not.

[Aoki¹]

I'll keep you in my prayers; get well soon.

[Tenshi]

Sorry I wasn't sensitive about this guy's unnaturally weak tolerance for alcohol.

Yes because not being able to down an entire bottle of vodka without being wildly sick makes his tolerance to alcohol weak

So congrats, you can put more poison in your body and still function. It's your body, damage it as you please

Such a twat you are

Sorry I wasn't sensitive about this guy's unnaturally weak tolerance for alcohol.

He naturally can't handle 750 ml of alcohol in his 900 ml stomach. forgetin' pusillanimous individual.

Seriously, forget off. I'm not a fan of Rally, but I'm not bragging about how much alcohol I can handle and making fun of him because he went to the loving hospital.

This is a stupid assertion.

First off, the stomach isn't 900ml. The stomach can contain at least one liter of fluid.^[1]

Second, alcohol poisoning doesn't come from the percentage of the stomach filled with alcohol; it comes from the amount of alcohol in blood. The absorption rate for a male of 140 pounds seems to be approximately .015% per drink per hour^[2], while the metabolic rate of alcohol is about .015% per hour irrelevant of the quantity of drinks.^[3] This is why if you drink about one drink per hour your BAC will not continue to rise. The OP did not mention how long it took him to drink that 750ml bottle of vodka, but assuming he was drinking 'quickly' he probably drank about 6 shots an hour (one per ten minutes on average) which would mean he took 17 shots (750ml)^[4] over 3 hours. So, to calculate BAC at a given hour you can use a_n = ((6*n)-n)*0.015. a₁ = 0.075 which is above the legal limit. When he finished drinking, at a₃, his BAC was approx 0.225. According to this chart of effects at each BAC level OP would be disoriented, have difficulty walking, possibly experience some vomiting, and possibly blackout. The threshold for alcohol poisoning is generally considered 0.3%, but that's a low threshold. The math points to OP having an unnaturally low tolerance for alcohol.

Oops I was .1 of a liter off sorry.

Cool he's 120 lbs so calculate that instead. Also you can assume he drank the entire thing as quick as he can. He said he's an alcoholic I'm sure he knows how to down something quickly.

You're still a huge asswipe for making fun of a kid because he can't handle as much alcohol as you, you're so cool man. Go forget yourself.

stop it right now
your life has changed, an addiction to alcohol can never be cured
you can go 1, 2, 10 years w/o alcohol, but after that if you touch anything that has alcohol in it it all comes back
the withdrawal symptoms, the "i can control myself" etc
then you get super drunk and notice that youre a failure and try to change it again
its a vicious cycle

you can stop being addicted to alcohol you numpty

[Decepticon]

Since rally is from 'merica

i'm pretty sure this is BS

you've seen all the stuff that people in russia do, and it's probably from all of the alcohol consumption


but really, 2015 has been an insane year and i'm glad we didn't lose somebody else

Oops I was .1 of a liter off sorry.

The key term was "at least." The human stomach should be able to expand to 3 liters without issue, I just took the lowest estimate from that page to cover my bases. Check the source.

Cool he's 120 lbs so calculate that instead.

I'll do rough math that'll way overestimate the difference just to prove to you it doesn't make a difference. 140lbs is 120% of 120lbs, so 0.225 * 1.2 = 0.27 BAC. Still below the threshold, and that's a huge overestimate as weight doesn't have a linear relationship with alcohol absorption into blood. The relationship is that of logarithmic growth, meaning it makes less of a difference as weight increases.

Also you can assume he drank the entire thing as quick as he can. He said he's an alcoholic I'm sure he knows how to down something quickly.

I don't know if you've ever done shots of vodka, but one shot per ten minutes is just about as fast as most people can handle. It's stupid to assume he drank the entire thing inside an hour.

Congratulations on having an unsubstantiated opinion. Next.

I'd give thanks to your liver and kidney, because holy stuff they carried you.
