Subject: BS: Blood alcohol level & effects
I'm wondering how well someone could function with high blood alcohol levels (ie they were drunk.)

Their level was found to be 282 mg/100ml which is 3 1/2 times the UK drink drive limit.

I fall asleep after 1 1/4 units, but I know regular/heavy drinkers who can drink 13 pints of beer and still play an instrument.

Maybe it depends on how much tolerance they had built up, but would 3 1/2 times always make someone falling down drunk ?

Thanks for any info
