Is it safe to drink 180 mL of pure alcohol at one time?

Question

My friend just drunk a bottle of wine that says 610 mL (29.5%). Is this ok?

Answer 1

no

Answer 2

No its stupid.

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

anything in excess is bad for you. Too much water can kill you, Drinking heavily will eventually catch up with you. You'll either end up with alcohol poisoning or worse, become an alcoholic... yikes!

Answer 5

Relatively speaking, this is like 450mL of vodka.  Lots of people have drank full 750mL bottles of vodka, and survived.  I have, for example (I did get sick).  Your friend will probably get a hangover in the morning, but they'll be fine.

Answer 6

Not at all - thats ridiculous and very dangerous...
