Yea it is not good for you.Red Bull is banned in France. I even heard a report on the radio the other day about a guy who died suddenly and they were saying that his could have been linked to Red Bull and a a basketball player from Ireland died suddenly a few years back after drinking 3 or 4 cans of Red Bull.
Yeah, see I thought I remembered seeing (more than once) that Redbull wasn't good for you. That's why it makes me :confused: when people mix that shit with vodka, lol. Mixing an energy drink and vodka?

Somehow I can't imagine someone's obituary in the paper stating 'Cause of death = Red Bull.' lol


I drink a lot of soda pops, some of them have about 6 teaspoons of sugar in them. I buy 2 packs of 6 everytime I go to the supermarket, and take about 4 to work with me at a time. It's the sugar I like them for. The glucose provides me with energy I can use at work.

Only drink redbull if I am feeling extra run down physically, or, if i'm mixing with vodka.
Energy drinks have 3x the amount of caffeine. Rukas saying he drank 12 or however many is like someone drinking 36 cans of soda...in one day. That's a lot.

When you go out drinking your purpose is to get fucked up, not to care about whats good and whats bad for you.

It's quite simple.

Alcohol is a downer.

Red Bull is a stimulant.


When you mix the two, aside from improved taste, you're also getting the benefit of being drunk while being energized and hyper.
The problem I find is that the red bull wears off before the jager and then the drunkness hits you all at once.

But that night I drank 12 straight redbulls...

Ill continue replying and then post a follow up...

No need to drink this shit anyway. You can mix coke with vodka. much nicer. The best thing to drink before training or excercise is water.
Vodka and coke? Awful mix. Vodka needs to be mixed with clear mixers, like soda water or lemonade with lime. Or juice.

People have died from Red Bull but its not because they rank too much, Red Bull is basically liquid caffeine. Some guy in Sweden died because he drank several cans after bike riding several miles, which elevated his heart rated, coupled with the caffeine and he had a heart attack. Same with the basketball player. People think it will give them more energy for sports but it doesnt.

Ok, back to my story.

So I finally collapsed about 2am last night and slept like a baby until today, thats about 24 hours after drinking it all. After I stopped posting here I got dressed and went out on a date, after walking around for a bit I developed some heart pain and it hurt for the rest of the night, especially when things got a little bit exciting if you get what I mean. By 11PM I could barely move but still couldnt sleep.

I feel fine now though, although this morning when I burped I still tasted Red Bull. All in all I think I had 12 bottles of Redbull and 2 cans of Pimp Juice.

I really wouldnt recommend it and to be honest in regards to doing it for the energy while clubbing and to stay awake, I think a couple lines of cocaine would be less damaging to the body.

That makes NO sense at all to me. Vodka is the most basic and versatile liquor...It really can be mixed with almost anything. It can't be mixed with dark soda but it can be mixed with clear soda? LOL

That's actually the way it is around here. Nobody I know mixes Vodka with "dark" sodas.

^maybe I'm just defensive of vodka. I know ppl think coke should only go with rum or whiskey or whatever. I'm not a drink snob so I d.k...it's not my favorite...but if I was in a pinch I would mix it.
