Let me clear things up.
RED BULL, is an energy drink, like V and MOTHER. It has ALOT of caffinee in it, it's not a vitamin drink. People use it to give them a high caffinee boost so they will last through the day. It says on the can that it is recommended that you only have a maximum 2 cans a day.
I drink red bull and I love it.
By the way, there is an alcoholic drink with red bull taste in it, and has most of the stuff red bull has, it's called "Pulse". When I drink it, it tastes exactly like red bull, but contains two standard drinks per can.
There is also many other drinks you can do with red bull such as "round ups" which is rum or vodka, topped with blue curacay (cant spell that one) and then red bull as the mixer. And with shots, theres I think a yoga bomb where you have red bull in a cup, and drop a shot in there and quickly drink it.
It's not dangerous to drink like you might think, but it does get you drunk quick. You only really reliase it when you stand up, because you drink so much caffinee it keeps you away, but alcohol makes you tired. So you think you're fine then you stand up and you start swaying.
Moderate drinking is best of course.
Point is, Jims reaction to the red bull in that scene is hallarious because it's true. It does make you go like that. But in reality I'm thinking people might be trying what he does but then they might die. A case here in Australia found that someone died from over dosing on red bull. Max 2 cans a day, he had like 20 spill out didnt he? Lol.
I have had I think 5 cans in a day. Wont over dose from that though. But I had 2 once within 5 minutes and my hands were shaking where I couldnt even pick up anything otherwise I'd probebly droip it. This is coming from a person who use to drink at least a litre of coke a day everyday. I'm not a caffinee senesitive person
