    This stuff gives me the 5 hour shits. Why not just coffee? What is the point of having energy if you spend 3 of the 5 hours on the think tank?

              Yeah that shit crazy. I can't bring myself to watch the whole thing. Is stay clear of those drinks. Imagine the long term effect on your body if you drink one a day!
              I'll stick to my Cuban coffee!!!

                  This is probably old school for this forum and for what drugs people take now, but 5 Hour made me feel like the final stages of taking acid or shrooms. That numb, can't sleep but tired feeling.

                    I answered in the poker forum where I first saw this:



                    Btw, like I said, I take them fairly often and 1) never feel weird... 2) it NEVER gives me the shits a la dane, no effect whatsoever, and I take multiples... 3) while it's no great shakes in taste, it doesn't bother me in the least... it's not that many ounces, no biggie.

                    Has no bad side effects w/me, ever... only positive ("B vitamin shot")

                          One 5 hour energy is great. I dont get too hyped up or anything, and they wake me up when I need a shot. Pretty much like coffee

                                  That shit is junk. Your want a mind/energy boost, get into nootropics...you know, the Bradley Cooper NZT Limitless stuff.

                                        It works for me some days after lunch at work if I didn't sleep enough the night before

                                        Pretty smooth and no crash although sometimes feel a little anxious as it wears off.....Usually doing less than the whole bottle will fix this

                                        Prefer coffee but every now and then I switch it up

                                          I drink one per day (Sour Apple). You're only supposed to take half at one time, a lot of people take the whole thing then complain. Their fault.

                                          I never liked coffee, and Red Bull dehydrated me, and I crashed about an hour later. 5-Hour lifts me up just a bit and helps me focus. I'm my normal scatterbrained retarded self when I'm not taking it, and that's not good for business.

                                          I do shit about 20 minutes after I take it, but it's a quick one and gets a lot of stuff out of me from the night before, so no problems there.

                                          It is really good in a cup of water too, the commercials don't lie.

                                                hmmm never knew 5 hour energy caused the shits! i want to avoid those. I will stay away from 5 hour energy. I only drank it 1 time and i thought i was going to have a heart attack afterward.

                                                what is it about long flights that causes the shits?

                                                          Ten packs?? Where you getting those? My Wal-Mart only has 4s and 6s.

                                                          If you drink them everyday like I do, paying close to $4 for one adds up.

                                                                Actually, that's exactly what was fixing to happen anyways. That's why they were "prepping" his chest or cleansing it with alcohol. Some doc was fixing to jab a shiv into that mans chest to release the pressure.

                                                                Donk you would've saved this mans life.

                                                                  People saying that 5 Hour Energy caused shakes? Caused a weirdness? Sh#$... You guys don't want to try REDLINE then... it will send you to a FLATLINE Redline gave me headaches immediately. You felt weird as fuk. I can't believe the FDA still allows this on the shelves?

                                                                    I don't know anyone that drinks it. I think it's too much for even the hardcore people.
