man gulps entire bottle of tequila...

The dad of a newborn baby has died after "downing" a bottle of tequila in a nightclub without stopping.

Kelvin Rafael Mejía took part in the stunt in the Dominican Republic in an effort to secure prize money of 40,000 pesos – the equivalent of roughly £680.

He could be seen standing on stage of the Vacca Lounge club in the city of La Romana and completing the challenge as dozens of spectators took images with mobile phones and cheered him on.

However, as the 23-year-old neared the end of the bottle, he could be seen needing support and had to be held to remain upright.

After ingesting the full bottle, Mejía raised his arms in jubilation and remained conscious long enough to be handed his prize money, but seconds later could be seen wobbling around before collapsing.

The weekend football benders used to get me a few years back.....Mike's Hard Pink lemonade on Saturday morning, 18 pack Coors Light with a 5th of Jim Beam in the afternoon/evening.

Try to come down on Sunday.....especially if I cashed a few tickets on Sat.....red wine and another 12 pack. Usually felt dead until Wed.

Gotta hang up the drinking shoes sooner or later...

I looked into the liver damage issue.....like most things, it is unique to each person, but has largely been overblown by the media. Many health concerns from alcohol are actually reversible:

Is excessive drinking good? No. Is alcohol addictive? Yes. If you quit will the body repair itself? Yes.

But wow, .36 is monster. I won a contest with a home-breathalyzer at .22 and could still function pretty well...but things were getting hazy. A BAC of .36 is a monster.
