don't drink them too often!  

Answer 4

i dont know about killed but these two kids had to go to the hospital after drinking an energy drink dont remember which one but it was pulled off most shelves after the incident

Answer 5

This actually happened to a friend of my brothers.

One of his first days of summer football practice at SMU, he drank 2 redbulls.

Went out there and had a heart attack. He was technically dead for a whole minute before the paramedics could resuccitate him.

So yeah, a 20 year old kid shouldn't have a heart attack. Those things are h**l on your body.

Answer 6

I heard that a high school football player died of heart trouble due to energy drinks. He was exerting a lot of energy and that combined with the energy drink was too much for his body to take. I would google it.

Answer 7

I know my friend will die from them if he doesn't stop drinking them.

They will destroy your liver from all of the processed c**p.

Oh yeah, a guy in china playing World of Warcraft died from staying up 2 nights straight, living off energy drinks, so YES, they have died.

I forgot, a classmate had seizures and palpatations on the field trip from those, so, careful now!

Answer 8

Yes. Some guy in Colorado drank 4 Monsters energy drink in a row and passed out and never woke again.  

Answer 9

No, I don't know anyone that has died from drinking them, but they can kill. Those are the worst things for your body since they eat at your stomach's hydrochloric acid that it produces. In clearer terms, it ruins your liver and slows down your digestive system making it harder for your food/drink to digest. Lastly, the caffeine is bad for you since it's not exactly good for you. Of course, there's tons of caffeine in pop, coffee, energy drinks, and so on. But, it depends on how much intake you have of it. By far, energy drinks are the most harmful for many reasons.

Answer 10

no but its bad to drink them everyday because they are not good for your heart.

Answer 11

Answer 12

I have read that no fatal accidents have occurred.But have read where some have drank several cans of these Caffeine drinks.They go to the ER with a Palpitating heart.scary but not fatal.Caffeine isn't a good thing overindulge on.

Answer 13

I can't remember the name of the drink, but I think they stopped selling it because it killed a teenage boy. Of course he drank way too much, but it still killed.

Answer 14

There have been reports of death when mixed with alcohol.

Answer 15

no, only the wallet.

Answer 16

Eh possibly heart attack from too much caffeine. I have a friend who's gotten kidney stones from drinking them daily. If you're worried about too much caffeine and sugar try the healthier ones I found a really good healthy one here http://www.voernix.com/2008/07/frs.html and it comes with a free trial although I bought it awhile ago might not be there right now.
