Let's see, I'll start by saying first that BAC is Blood Alcohol Concentration. Next, the legal limit in most states is generally 0.08%. From the information given, and a quick conversion, it looks like this guy had a BAC of about 0.73%. And in case that doesn't seem like much, trust me, it's ridiculous. Example: the LD50 (dosage of a drug that will kill half the population if consumed) for alcohol is 0.3%. According to experts, if a person were to attain a BAC of .4% or higher, they would go into a coma and likely die of respiratory arrest.

Thanks for the correction on my math, Dron_Cah. That little decimal point slips it every time...

In any case.... wow. Wow. WOW! [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]

Content, Concentration. Close enough i guess. Thankyou Dron_Cah for pointing that out. 0.73% while still insanely ridiculous, is a much more reasonable figure. It has to be a record...

I can't decide whether to be ashamed of this man, or simply awestruck.
