5 hour energy drinks?

I'm kind of tired and have an hour drive home. When I get home it will take an hour to cook and eat and another half hour for dishes, then to bed. That's two and a half hours. My question is this - if I drink half of a five hour energy drink, will I have full energy for 2 1/2 hours, or half energy for 5 hours?

Or am I the only person who ponders crap like this?:D
 
I worked with a welder last summer that had recently been released from prison for selling cocaine, he was a heck of a welder btw. He tried one of those 5 hour energy deals and said that it was the closest legal thing to coke that he's ever had as far as the effects and crash went, and stopped drinking them. I figure thats all the info I need to never drink one.

Go for some sunflower seeds instead.

Not even close IMO. Mini Thins (White cross) are much closer or even those Stacker pills.

I have a friend here at work that is selling this new all natural energy drink that works well and you don't feel all tweaked out, not bottoming out after it's gone either.

That stuff is LOADED in Niacin and vitamin B12.

What is it...the % of your reccomended daily dose is in the THOUSANDS.
I've seen people's heart rate go nuts with that 5 hour energy.

Would you honestly take 2500% of the recommended daily dose of something in one little shot?
If a little is good, then a LOT is better, right?

I'm not going to try it myself.
 
A couple of years ago I installed a stainless steel sink at a coco cola plant. while waiting for the plumber I started talking to some loaders, asking what they drank ?(its all free to them) they all said WATER. and these guys were in there late twenties. so I started asking about these new energy drinks, they all got this silly smile and one said follow us ! we walked over to a roped off place where the concrete was blasted away (1/4 deep) in a square pattern. he said see that! that's where a plastic pallet of energy drink sat for six days with a leak, theirs no way I'm drinking that crap! when we started mopping up the floor the concrete started flaking up so we got a broom to sweep up the flakes
when we got done this is whats left we cant even drive the forklifts over it its so rough !

X2, this stuff is like a dagger for the heart. 8000% times the amount of B12 you should have. They say that the unused amounts will flow out through natural toxins in your body, but they fail to say that the amount of water intake your body requires to flusht hat out of the system you might as well drink water for 5 hours straight.

I don't think I would chance putting something like this in my body, overdose of B6 can cause nerve damage.

I see firefighters bring this out with them on the line and I tell them to throw it away right away or they are staing home. I will not chance a guy on my line who will be working in tough conditions that is trying to rob their body of water and then be taking unsafe amounts of this crap. They know to be on a safe diet of carbs for energy, and if you really want a energy for a short period of time the natural way is eat an apple or two.
