according to this sight, and i were 1200lbs it would take 81,900.00 Hershey’s Kisses to kill me… i think thats wrong, if i were 1200lbs i think if i ate, like eight i would die, i think this system is a bit flawed, also if u own halo for pc check out this sight sysforum.co.nr it belongs to my System of a Down clan, i am the founder

i think this is awesome 1 question tho does this mean in a row or in your life time??

[...] P.S. There is also a website calculator to figure out how much of a certain energy mint would kill you. Terrific. It would take 70.53 turbo truffles to kill me.   [link] [...]

91.45 shots of Espresso + You = Death

295.02 Hershey’s Special Dark bars + You = Death

Sounds like too much work to me. I think I’ll just die the old fashioned way.

You need Rocket Chocolate up there and Oral fixation’s “Night Lights” caffienated chai mints.

The lethal dose is proportional to the consumption rate related to volume/frequency of urination within that time.

coffee August 16th, 2006 1:38 pm

i think i could swallow 1,413.75 mints

Nick October 19th, 2006 9:51 am

Even worse, only 55 dexatrim.

Hooray for juiced up weight loss.

Good idea. Thanks, I’ll use this.

Michelle November 2nd, 2006 7:34 pm

What about the coffee/espresso products that Tassimo carries? Basically an exact measured amount of coffee (or whatever) is prepared in disc shaped containers that have a bar code the Tassimo machine reads to know which beverage to brew. Lattes, espressos, coffees and even green tea.

Stefan November 8th, 2006 2:06 pm

I’ll die in three, two, one…..

Dan November 28th, 2006 5:32 am

Thank you so much for putting this calculator up! I just started taking No Doz in the mornings to get me through the day and i have been wondering just how it can affect me. great idea!

i like bawls down my mouth in my throat

Herb January 18th, 2007 10:06 am

I calculate that one more coffee will see me in my coffin!

Bob February 2nd, 2007 4:01 am

I had several packets of Peguin mints shipped over from the States, to try them out and discovered they they are basically mint flavoured chalk, but I like the sugar free element - and they don’t burn the mouth like some mints. The caffeine level is not as high as I thought it would be either, but hey, I don’t want caffeine poisoning anyway!

I use proplus at the moment, to try and keep me awake when working in the evening, but like the idea of these mints. Does anyone know where to find these mints, or something similar, in the UK?

Penguin Reds are the best! Nothing like a boost with a cinnamon taste!

chip dip March 2nd, 2007 1:51 pm

you should add more things like burger and fries because I eat around 10 burgers a week at least and I fell better that ever. NOw would I have to eat 3000+ reeses peanut butter cup all at once or over a period of like a week?

Zeke March 8th, 2007 7:47 pm

So by this calculation, a lethal dose is about 34.124mg per pound of body weight, right?

Where does this number come from?

jhorn March 20th, 2007 12:31 am

Zeke:

LD-50 data usually come from animal models.

A quick check of MSDS data for caffeine shows that many of the non-scientific sources out there are crap on stilts. Oral dosing of rats gives an LD-50 at 192 mg/kg, but more interesting is the human data that are available. Naturally, no controlled studies have been conducted, but the lowest repoted lethal oral dose in an adult human is 192 mg/kg. If the dose is given IV, then the lowest reported lethal dose in an adult female drops to just 57 mg/kg. Looks like the hepatic first-pass effect is a large one.

Ha–this is from the “Emergency Overview” MSDS section:
“Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Ingestion increases the metabolic rate causing warm, flushed and moist skin, muscular weakness, rapid heart rate, insomnia, nervousness, increased metabolism and weight loss. May cause ataxia, blood pressure elevation, convulsions, hallucinations, hypermotility, muscle contraction or spasticity, somnolence (general depressed activity), toxic psychosis, and tremors.”

Onoes! Caffeine!

So is that how many it would take to kill you in 24hours or what?
