Energy drinks here are limited to what 32mg per 100ml caffeine?

Drink i came across in thailand was the size of a coke can with 150mg per 100ml! Potent **** that was. Made my scooter ride interesting to say the least.

Scutter ride?

Not really, opposite end of the spectrum more like.

People drop dead due to heart conditions all the time, but if that person happens to have consumed an energy drink around the time of death the parents and the papers always blame the drink. It's beyond stupid.

Amazed no one has realised that "Unleash the Beast" was a symbolic part of a Freemason ceremony. When the blood of 3 virgins (local to the Order) cascades simultaneously down the black altar towards the end of the Freemason AGM, this causes an eerie glow to descend on the ceremony. This is followed immediately by a quick bright light and is commonly referred to as "Unleash the Beast".

This drink is a symbol of freemasonry and i'd bet if anyone does their homework they will find that the girl was a virgin. What this all tells me is that there are 2 young girls out there who are yet to drink this and die. I really hope this doesnt happen as "Unleash the Beast" is a well known and acknowledged precursor to the end of days. The end of days is described as a great flood. Hence Red Bull's (biggest competitor) slogan "Red Bull Gives You Wings" ie red bull will allow you to survive the apocalypse.

What u smoking, can haz?

My little cousin (8) was staying with us over the summer and she bought one of these cans and drank it. She was absolutely hyper for two days after it. They should definitely not be given to children and should be taken off the market I think. A can of redbull is one thing but these things are just a lawsuit waiting to happen, the size of the can and all.

SHE bought it? At 8? was there no adult supervision while she was in the shop? My almost 8 year old would never be allowed to purchase something like that, let alone drink it.... :rolleyes:

Seconded. It's as dangerous as exercise.

Ban it.
Ban everything !!!!

I think I've told this story before but sure what the hey. One time I was writing an essay in college and I was knackered so I drank five cans of red bull within about 2 hours. It was awesome, by the end I felt like Fry after drinking his 100th cup of coffee

Oink · 23-10-2012 02:45PM

The girl was an idiot:

She was 8, too young to be blamed. Her parents should not have let her drink that shoite. Seriously, who lets their kid drink stuff like that.

None of these drinks are age restricted in your local shop.

Nothing stopping your 8 year old daughter purchasing a can of this stuff from her pocket / lunch money on the way home from school.

Well, at 8 she wouldn't be walking home from school on her own either....

It's a rural school, the nearest shop would be a 10 min walk from the school..

Can a Type 1 Diabetics family sue the chocolate bar factory if their child died from gorging on their chocolate?

Well, back in my day I may not have been walking miles in the snow, sharing a pair of shoes between me sisters and brothers :pac:

But it was a good ole 20 minute stretch of the legs.

This is what I'm trying to get at... If you know your kid shouldn't be consuming something, you supervise enough and educate enough so they don't manage to get it...

My pair are allergic to egg, and since the little guy was 3 ish, he has known to refuse cake for instance, cos there's usually always egg in it... Same way as if he had any other underlying issue, i'd make sure he wasn't getting sugar/caffeine or whatever...

M150 was it? Good stuff alright, probably 50% sugar and 50% caffeine!

Energy drinks in general are a sham and are basically sugary pop with fancy packaging. Caffeine content is no stronger than a strong coffee and ingredients such as taurine have
a) no proven effect
b) are at a negligible conc. anyway

But extract of bull semen conjures up images of virility and energy in peoples minds, even if it is marketing bullsh1t

Those monster energy drinks or Lucozade energy drinks There not for kids , Those type of drinks are used for a person working out in a gym trying to keep up he/she level while their training for those purposes and I was shocked when i saw an adult in a store buying them for her kids like wouldn't surprize me why her kids were high .

Likewise! Some days none, but other days I'd have 4 or 5. Depends if I'm training or whatever.

Good few years back, my husband went to some metal festival somewhere.
Did a bit of speed and had a bunch of red bull.
I can't remember how much red bull he said he had - maybe 10 cans over the 2 days?
When he came home, his heart was palpitating like crazy - for 2 weeks!!
His boss ended up bringing him to hospital to be on the safe side and they found that his heart was 3 times what it should have been!
He has never complained about his heart before or since.
I don't think it was just the drugs, coz he'd done them a few times before, and was fine, and didn't take any more than he had previously.

I've had nights where I'd drink 6 or 7 cans of Red Bull because there'd be specials on Double Vodka/Red Bull, the next day was always dreadful, an impending sense of heart failure throughout. But two weeks seems a bit extreme!

I am convinced!
The End is Nigh.
These drinks and their hideous aftermath are but a prelude to Ascension.
The Reptilians are going to rip us to shreds and afterwards, for sport, suck the marrow from our bones.

God help Us All.
