Nothing on there that I drink! 29 Bottles of Lowenbrau is about the closest, mind you if I tried to put than many away in 3 hours, I'd be back and forth to the urinal so often I'd burn 10 bottles of it off!

22 bottles of Grolsch in 3 hours.... thats what? 11 pints...?

In 3 hours on a Saturday afternoon (most saturday afternoons) Id probably down the best part of 9 pints. Pint every 20 minutes ish although I probably slow down after the 6th so maybe not that much.

24 shots of Vodka for me - doesn't say what size a shot is though.

If it's talking 25ml then that's 12 normal pub doubles in three hours, a messy night out probably but certainly not death!

In my younger and stupider days, I once drank a 75cl bottle of vodka in about an hour and a half. I might have wished I was dead the next day, but obviously wasn't. Had alcohol poisoning and felt crap for a few days ... I think they underestimate the amount of punishment a body can take.

It would take 32 bottles of Guinness Guinness Draught to kill you.

Draught Guinness doesn't come on bottles !!!

18 bottles of Fosters. I really should be dead by now.

Saying that, it may take me slightly longer than 3 hours to drink them in. Only slightly

I saw a German student drink a tumbler full of rum in Canada and shortly afterwards he fell down dead!

Just not worth it is it?

Ive seen a guy drink 2 pint glasses of Sambuca in the space of 2 minutes AFTER he'd already had a skin full of Lager, granted he was carried away on a stretcher after me and my mate spent an hour trying to make him be sick and he survived. He did miss his flight home from Zante the next morning though

43 shots of vodka......

That said I have had more than that on quite a few occasions in sessions before, but not limited to three hours.

Christ I used to drink a bottle of vodka inside 2 hours just to warm up.

17 rum and cokes in 3 hours, that's not even a full bottle.

I am definitely dead, and made sure of it many times over.

Hmmm... 21 bottles of Bud in 3 hours, apparently.
That's almost worth a go....

21 glasses of white wine in 3 hours would do the job for me apparently.

I fear I may have come fairly close to that at a recent Wedding! Over a longer period though! Phew!
