171 Starbucks in 24 Hours
Mark Malkoff attempted to visit all Starbucks stores in Manhattan inside 24 hours.
Here are the statistics:
- made 18 bathroom stops
- spent $369.14 – including an $80 bribe for a single piece of pound cake
- bought at least 50 caffeinated drinks
- 27 pieces of biscotti
- 24 bottles of water
- 12 cookies
- 1 Asian sesame pasta dish.
In his self-made video he says that he had to consume “at least part of the product”. So the 50 caffeinated drinks doesn’t tell us much. However, if he consumed say 40mg in each drink… then that’s a total of 2,000mg.
Mark made an entertaining video of the experience. At one point in the video he mentions having 8 espresso shots in 3 hours. At the 14th hour he reports “tingling” (classic sign of over-caffeination). He manages to complete his task in 20 hours.
What’s amazing about this, is not that someone was crazy enough to try such a feat – but the fact there are actually 171 Starbucks outlets packed into 23 square miles.

That Employee named Jenny will be investigated and fired. Thank you for unveiling her name and store.
Wow, if that guy is really with starbucks, Jenny is fu**ed :p
This sounds silly. All I’ve got to say on that.
Don’t fire Jenny. And this is quite informative information this footage. I loved it.
How wasteful. Starbucks is a pretty evil corporation anyway. They treat their coffee growers like shit.
Starbucks don’t treat their coffee growers like shit, well they did in the 90’s now they are one of the leading coffee companies who support their coffee growers
I definitely think that this guy had alot of guts & drive 2 do this. Another person that similarily does this kind of thing, but almost 4 a living is Winter. His Website is http://www.starbuckseverywhere.net. Btw, just want 2 also say that I think that energyfiend.com is an awesome site! -Drinking coffee @ warp speed…
Defend Jenny…what a waste of money, peoples………
I think Mark Malkoff should be awarded some free coupons for coffee since he spent soooo much money in those Starbucks
lmfao,id be the dude to beat that record,if the money was thrown at me,id do it.
on a side note,that guy had to be a former methamphetamine addict to consume that much caffine and not puke……..
