It's amazing about these people. I think I saw where some high school girl blew a 0.700 on the weekend and she was back in school the following week. I think if they can get to the person in time they can pump out their stomach and the body recovers.

[Killer_Demo]

its must be REAL boring where he lives

[Sunde91]

It is a whole different game there.

You can walk into most bars as a 15 year old and order a drink no questions asked.

Some freaks can pull that off, most people would be dead.

[Skidcom]

Incredible. .42 was the worst I was ever associated with not me, a coworker who blew that at 9 am. He passed away at 44. ALcoholism is horrible.

Off the charts:
Here's the bac chart.

http://www.ou.edu/oupd/bac.htm

0.30 BAC: STUPOR. You have little comprehension of where you are. You may pass out suddenly and be difficult to awaken.

0.35 BAC: Coma is possible. This is the level of surgical anesthesia.

0.40 BAC and up: Onset of coma, and possible death due to respiratory arrest.


FACTOID:

Of Oklahoma's reported alcohol/drug-related crashes...
51.5% involved one vehicle.
44.2% occurred between 9 p.m. and 2 a.m.
23.8% occurred on Saturday.

This is not accurate, bars in Wisconsin check id's. People here do drink a lot though. We probably have a higher rate of alcoholism than most other states.

From Wikipoedia:

Highest recorded blood alcohol level/content

In 1995, a man in Wrocław, Poland had a car accident. At the hospital, his BAC was determined to be 1.48%. He died a few days later from wounds from a car accident. Police were baffled as to how an individual could attain such a high blood alcohol. Later, police discussions with his brother in-law Francois Hughes said he had "beer bonged" pure grain alcohol allegedly stolen from his place off work, a chemical plant.[39]


In December 2004, a man was admitted to the hospital in Plovdiv, Bulgaria after being struck by a car. After detecting a strong alcohol odor, doctors at a hospital conducted a breath test which displayed the man's blood alcohol content at 0.914. Concerned that their equipment was malfunctioning, doctors also performed five separate lab tests, all of which confirmed the man's blood alcohol content.[40] The man was treated for serious injuries sustained in the crash and survived.[41]


In February 2005, French gendarmes from Bourg-en-Bresse, France conducted a breath test on a man who had lost control of his car. He had an alcohol content of 0.976.[42] He was not injured in the accident but was charged with a € 150 fine and his driving license was canceled.


There have been reported cases of blood alcohol content higher than 1.00. In March 2009, a 45-year-old man was admitted to the hospital in Skierniewice, Poland after being struck by a car. The blood test showed blood alcohol content at 1.23. The man survived but did not remember either the accident or the circumstances of his alcohol consumption.[43] One such case was reported by O'Neil, et al. in 1984. They report on a 30-year old man who survived a blood alcohol concentration of 1,500 **/100ml blood after vigorous medical intervention.[44]


In 1982, a 24 year old woman was admitted to the UCLA emergency room with a serum alcohol concentration of 1.5 (1510 **/dL). She was alert and oriented to person and place (Reported in the Lancet, Dec 18 1982, pg 1394). Serum Alcohol Concentration of course is not equal to nor calculated in the same way as Blood Alcohol Content.[45]


In South Africa a man driving a Mercedes-Benz Vito and was arrested on December 22, 2010, near Queenstown in Eastern Cape. His blood had an alcohol content of 1,6g/100ml. Five boys as well as a woman who were also in the vehicle with 15 sheep, allegedly stolen from nearby farms, were also arrested.[46]


In Poland a homeless man was found sleeping half-naked on January 28, 2011, in Cieszyn. His blood had an alcohol level of 1.024 %. Despite the temperature of -10 °C and extremely high blood alcohol content the man survived.[47]
