You can really taste the tarantula!
here is another cool fact the world record (and one that will never be broken) for most alcohol consumed in a single sitting is held by andre the giant
1:18 Why is there a picture of Welsh police when you are talking about Americans?
No2. Utter BS. It all depends on the alcohol content of each beverage.
can you tell me what the splotches are.. mikeks neck…. me and my friend have a bet I think its hives. he thinks it from his family… if he dosnt want to say I understand.. just wandering
#18) I didn't know Welsh was a major language in America.
im drinkin right now
but were does space alcohol come from?
European schools serve alcohol to willing students #WTF def not in Germany or the UK and Ireland ha ha
As to number 2:
12 ounces of 5% beer equals 5 ounces of 12% wine equals 1 shot (1.5 oz.)of 80-proof liquor.
A pint of beer (as stated in the video,) is 16 fluid ounces and contains 33% more alcohol than the other two options. This means that 3 pints of 5℅ beer contain the same amount of alcohol as 4 glasses of 12℅ wine or 4 shots of 80-proof liquor. It is also worth noting that European beers quite often contain more than 5% alcohol.
Also, the glass of beer pictured in the video looks like it contains about 10 ounces at most, so this visual should not be trusted as a guideline.
Thanks for the video, hope this helps :-)
#22 is bullshit…. Moving on.
i find many mezcals far superiour to tequila.
Im bout to have drink
I'm not from Europe but #9 is exaggerated, right……
Well I'm away to the shops to buy some Snake Venom it should be easy to find considering I'm in Scotland

Just so you know, mescal is tequila that is brewed outside of Jalisco county Mexico. I have had Mescal that was better than the very best tequila on the market. But, I've also had mescal that nearly killed me as well!
Humans may have begun to produce wine during the Neolithic, it is thought they were doing hallucinogens long before that.
