  • this kid is just a rich son of a bitch and ive done the test wit my friends alone with out a retarded dad so kid stfu it does increase my heart rate and i started running faster and longer and i love monster for the taste not the kick you dumb bitch

  • Eruption Effervescent Energy is better than this stuff.

  • i just drink monster for the taste

  • wat a tard...its got copious amounts of caffeine and taurine....and why the fuck is a 12 year old drinkin god damn energy drinks...... kiss my god damn ass.....

  • I love monster it tastes amazing and when you get that kick uhhhhh it is the best

  • schmekt mir aus mitleid weil es so scheiße ist !!

  • Very misleading video, i will continue to buy energy drinks. And yes i can believe he did all that research hisself because he has no life of a regular child probably because of his overly demanding father.

  • I drink it for the taste.... So yeah lol

  • How can you make any assumption about heart rate or blood pressure while someone is exercising? I drink Monster in the place of coffee or soda. Not before I train or play sports. Why would I drink anything with caffeine in it before exercise? That would just dehydrate me.

  • lol this kid looks like a fucking noob he thinks hes something

  • Yeah, I remember when energy drinks were advertised as "performance enhancers" and "exercise boosters."

    Only thing I remember is "BOOST YOUR ENERGY."

    Unless you count 5 hour energy...

  • it's very lots of shurger or so that gives you energy and go crazy

  • It does give you energy, but thinking it'll give you any measurable performance increase in sports seems silly. It'll probably allow you to add more power to a weight lifting session though.

  • i hate monster and rockstar they taste so bad and energy drinks are to bad on health

  • Who drinks Monster for energy??? I drink it because it tastes freaking awesome. Monster advertises pleasure over energy anyways.........

  • I prefer Relentless... but only because it tastes delicious.

  • that school sucks

  • Wait energy drinks don't raise your heart rate!? Well I guesse not just one, cuz my ass had 3 eRevs in one period and I almost had a heart attack later.

  • lol he held guitar hero's guitar backwards!!!

  • the worst thing to do is drink a monster then play football.... youll stop your heart kid.

  • seriously, energy drinks r bad if you take more than 2 or three, its true i should know i popped 2 monster energy drinks every night during work frm 9p-6a ..one weeknd i had heart poppatations , it felt as if my heart was gna give out on me and ended in the e.r...doctors says it was the amount of energy drinks i was taking. also the drinks are addicting i quit aftr that incident then after a couple months i was back on them but not like how i was ..they just taste good..lol but fuck energy drink

  • These drinks are STIMULANTS, not performance enhancers!

  • @sasquatchcrew exatly which is why people think theyre bad. its ment to keep you awake and alert. i drink them instead of coffee. because i dont like how coffee taste.

  • Energy drinks are just a waste of money. They don't give you energy at all. And furthermore, they damage your body.

    Why you can stay up all night after you drink it? Simple: it's called placebo effect, and with this they heal also many people. Approximately 70% of the medicines available to public are just placebos.

    Know your facts before hurting your body for nothing.

  • @gameloft96 I dig your very articulated reply lol

  • @edoardoruggeri1

    lol dude :D

    sorry man, no offense intended in that. i was just a little pissed that night, everyone has their own opinion.

  • go watch youtube.com/watch?v=7mExVte-lW­0

  • RockStar Energy sponsors Animal Cruelty, Please search and watch the video on youtube called "GRAPHIC -- Rodeos Abuse, Maim and Kill Animals" , Don't support RockStar as they Support the PBR. Monster Energy has Dirtshark which rocks Rockstar any day

  • 0:01

    

  • rich lil bastard had his dad pay money so he could present a series of non-professional tests and some facts he found on the internet to a bunch of arrogant assholes. No shit monster isn't going to make you perform better it's (great tasting) soda amped up with caffeine and a litle B-vitamins, pure caffeine actually does increase athletic performance and is banned in the olympics. If I wanna run fast I eat apples and drink water, if I want to stay up all night I drink monster.

  • 1. that kid is a geek

    2. I don't drink energydrinks for the kick just for the taste

    3. I think that Monster had payed him because he only mentioned monster

  • @MattyyySwE

    Why would monster pay him to tell people energy drinks dont do anything?

  • @MattyyySwE me2 i drink it most for the taste and caffeine, i drink like one a day and i love it

  • A B+ what? wow i would go back show them this and say what do you have to say now bitch. This happened with my schools talent show we didn't make it but a week later we might be playing for this band coming to town i'm not saying names cause it's still a maybe but when they found out this they invite us to come bak we do we make it now were like no way bitch.

  • CBS... I believe the onion more than I believe you...

  • this video was a waste of my time if the kid still drinks energy drinks it defeats the whole purpose

  • That little shit thinks he can disprove the magical effects of Monster. Lulz. That shit can keep me goin' all night long in a Black Ops gaming session.

  • @heavymetal774 Play MW2

  • my 2 cents....drink them on an empty stomach...like right when you wake up....it will do a more noticeable job of showing energy results....if you go through the school day and are already up and ate food for the past 7 hours of the day...i could see the energy drink taking a lesser affect on you then if you just woke up and chugged it down fast.....

  • Energy drinks arent for athletes, they are more for concentration and staying awake.

  • energy drinks are for pussies.

  • energy drinks are more for staying up, not on field performance. I drink it cause of the taste and occasionally to stay up later for projects and work and whatnot.

  • i drink monster because i like the way it taste. most people drink it because they like the way it taste not because they want energy. but u did a good job.

  • rich fucker

  • Ya...The kid's 12. He already has tons of energy! If he was really smart he would'v tested multiple people of differing ages to his theory.

  • Privlidge is a Motherfrontdoor!

  • breden is a pussy

  • Damn they rich

  • the best thing about them  is the can design

  • I am 11 and drink monster and it seems to come in handy to me...

  • !!!!

  • hey im just super trollin and saw some shit say energy drinks cant give you energy,i took about two min out from trollin and found this, The most common ingredient for providing the boost is caffeine. As described in How caffeine works, caffeine mimics a chemical called adenosine, which makes people feel drowsy. Caffeine therefore replaces adenosine on receptor sites and eliminates the drowsy feeling. hope you enjoy..

  • fuck the fact of getting energy from it like others are saying i love the taste

  • tough school may ass...Red Bull runs the show!

  • poor kid...

  • that little kid needs to get out get a girlfriend and get a life... you know you was all thinking it i said it. =P

  • Brenden is a dweeb.

  • It's really mental energy rather than a physical energy. So testing in sports isn't going to be valid.

  • i drank a monster and got a nuke in codmw2.... in a 10th p lobby... that proves something.

  • monster does not really give you energy, it's just that it taste so good it makes you forget how tired you were five minutes ago.

  • energy drinks arent meant to help endurance theyre just to boost energy levels and im not listening to a 12 year old about what to drink

  • Monster Energy is the best energy drink ever created, if you don't like it that's your loss. I don't care if it doesn't give me energy I drink it because I think it taste fantastic and its cool and that it makes me feel good :) Thumbs up if you agree that Monster is the best tasting energy drink, Unleash The Beast!

  • It one of those products that you either believe in or you dont ...personally I think it a bunch of Bs to sell you over priced drinks ...With 11 yrs over the road I have tryed about every energy drink on the market and cant say I got any more effect out of them then I would of from a cup of coffee or Soda ....But if you believe in them they can be alot like taking a placebo ...If you think it working then you will feel like its working ...The 1st task in marketing a successful product is toget

  • to believe in it ....If you can accomplish that ...You can sell anything even at a very overly priced price

  • dat kid a fuking prick

  • I love monster but it dosent give me energy I drink it for the smell and taste

  • I bet that kid Drank alot of monster and played games just for fun!

  • Monster Energy are famous, cool, So delicious and my fav

  • Wow monster honesty varies from every person, BUT READ WAT THEY ADVERTISE. "Temporarily restores mental alertness or wakefulness WHEN EXPERIENCING FATIGUE OR DROWSINESS" u dont drink it when ur wide awake. i once went 40 hours no sleep with one can of Monster and M&Ms.

  • Not trying to be a hater, but how seriously can we take research conducted by a child and his father?

    Not to mention the fact that opinion could have massively influenced the results seeing as there was only one test subject, as i said, i'm not trying to be a hater but this is just plain bullshit. :)

  • yea i drink it for the taste same with red bull

  • doctors did a test on human after drinking a energy drink and there heart rate did speed fucking 12 year old doesn't no shit

  • NOBODY CARES ABOUT AFECT WHAT ABOUT THE TASTE

  • Justin Bieber came out with an energy drink. It gave you no energy and makes you into a little bitch. The name is, BABY BABY BABY OOOOHHH BABY BABY BABY Energy, makes you whine like a BABY BABY BABY OOOOOOHHH BABY BABY BABY.

  • @lcgangsta1991 Stop

  • Who the fuck else got a tampon ad before the video? God Damn

  • @DarkAxeProductions I thought it was kinda funny actually.

  • "He submitted it anonymously.."

    Well, not so fucking anonymous anymore.

  • k if i drink an energy drink anytime through the day , i can not sleep at night, so......... ya energy drinks do work he's just a plug that energy drinks donk affect him

  • Ultimately, there's no substitute for a good diet, exercise, and getting enough sleep when it comes to having energy. But energy drinks, while not perfect, definitely help with short term energy when you need it.

  • This is acid anyways

  • JUST a b+ fuckin hell i got congratulated for a d. tough crowd man, tough crowd

  • the only reason they give you energy is they have calories. now had he compared it to DIET SPRITE much different since diet drinks have 0 calories which is much worse for your health in the long run the only 0 calories drink thats good for us is water.

  • @bd189 i think it depends on the sugers..

  • Im curious as to how big his groups were. If it was just him then I am not going to take his results to heart. For proper data collection he would need a much larger collection of people from varying backgrounds and athletic abilities. Until then, you are dismissed.

  • b+? wow. he is 12. that was an original idea and it seemed to be very well documented. did a kid with a vinegar and baking soda volcano get an A?

  • B PLUS?! B PLUS AGAINNNNNN?!

  • screw that i'm on NOS, only because i got a 4-5 page literary analysis paper due in four hours, SO WIREDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDD

  • his project got sponcered on the news and he only gets a fuckin' B+. that's bs. i would fuckin' replace the teacher with another who would give him an A+ for that.

  • bull shit they make you wired up and make you want to do things fuck you you 12 year old cocksucking pussy.

  • @YourMoviesAreGay harsh much ()_o

  • ill eat this kids liver if he tells mei cant drink

  • Shit did you see that O_O

    Do you how smart the kid became energy drink LMAO!!

  • fuck off there amazing bitch

  • WTF? It sounds like he only tested himself. Everyone's body reacts differently to energy drinks... 

  • 0:01 to skip the adds

  • Lol men who have real BALLS dont need energy drink to stay up...i dont drink monster cuz it gives me energy which it doesnt...i drink it cuz i think it taste REALLY good...thumbs up if u agree...=]

  • @MrEpicNoodles *thumbs up* 

  • @MrEpicNoodles i too drink because of taste and the ability to stay up a little more but only by 1-2 hours then i get extra tired

  • @MrEpicNoodles Hell yea man, i'm sendin you afriend request for that. I also heard it makes your dick bigger.

  • @MrEpicNoodles Monster tastes like caffeinated water. AMP ELEVATE is where it's at.

  • Your an anal haaha jkjk

  • eh yeah i think energy drinks ar mostly used by gamers

  • "advertised to do" ive never seen monster advertised as a sports performance drink, just energy drink to basically wake you up, i know when i drink 1 or 2 in a short period my hearts racing like a mofo

  • well if you think its giving you energy, then you get hyper. so technically it works xD i dont drink Monster for energy I drink it for that sweet sweet crispy taste <33

  • no way that nerd is a football player

  • hello people the makers of energy drinks never claimed that they would enhance your physical performance(make you better at a physical activity) they are just supposed to give you more energy hence the name energy drinks c'mon people

  • haha i don't think monster gives me energy nor do i care if it does. It just taste so damn good.

  • this was the first time i saw a ad!

  • Energy Drinks are boss so fuck that 12 year old

  • I would fail this kid.

  • energy drinks are for doind a all nighter or truck drivers not sports

  • If you drink it too much your body gets used to it, I know this because I would drink about 2 a day and after I waited a week and drank one I got this huge buzz, so yes it does work if you space it out.

  • A DOUCHE,,,,,JUST LIKE MY DAD, THE REASON THIS FAGGLE DIDN WIN IS CAUSE NOBODY REALLY CARES WTF A CHILDS OPINION ON A BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY IS---GO PLAY GUITAR HERO WITH A BOTTLE OF MILK

  • what a fag energy drinks arnt for sports enhancment there for a pick me up and im his age and i drink them all the time and i dont even play a sport i get tired and they taste good.

  • Fucking retarded Americans

    Did he do any research into stimulation. The effects of this drink are not proved to enhance your performance in sport/activities physically, if anything I've learnt from experience that it is more of a pick me up for my brain to keep me level headed when i start to get tired.

    This is more of a research into caffeine-the same thing that goes into coffee that people drink to 'get them up in the morning', its not really getting them up its just activating their brain

  • Hahaha the kid needs to larn and think that world is all about the money why do u think that it is more expensive then a can of coke but it's has beater tayst then some drinks out their and who the fuck gives a dam what the kid did for homework

  • So what if it doesn't help? Beside who wants to drink energy drinks to approve their health!? Like FUCK OFF!

  • he looks like a retard!!

  • Of course they don't give us energy,

    They still taste good, and we love them.

  • Blue Bastard Energy FTW!!! :D

  • Do you get paid to drink Red Bull or Monster? If you currently drink 1 energy drink a day and would like to get paid for it e-mail me @ energydrinkjoe@yahoo.com and we can set up a webinar to show you how it works. I live in Rockford, Illinois and have been doing for 2 months and am making a good profit so get a hold of me :)

  • same here im a big monster fan and im not gonna listen t0 some kid he can suck it

  • You can't use yourself as a test subject. That's so fucking biased. I'm not saying Monster IS a performance enhancer, it's basically better tasting coffee to keep you awake AFTER you do a streneous activity/just to wake you up, but this kid's "mind-blowing research" is bullshit. Why didn't him and his fudge packing daddy use different subjects/a placebo/a control group and make this a double blind study? Using yourself as an example when you have an opinion isn't "research," Justin Bieber >.>

  • What a dumbass kid!!!Why would u drink monster before football or any physical activity?!?!That in itself is dumb as hell!!Thats gonna get your heart rate high as hell and hurt your performance that kids dumb as hell wtf?!?!

  • im 12 and what is this?

  • Oh look he sucks at GH and wants to be a doctor like his faggoty ass daddy.

  • I actively ensure that after i have drunk or during drinking an energy drink, I do NOT engage in any strenuous activity. I dont treat the drinks as 'performance enhancers', as i do for drinks like Lucosade Sport and Gatorade - which both happen to provide a healthy dose of hydration, whilst energy drinks, being severe diuretics, dehydrate the crap out of me. I dont know what this kid is trying to proove, but whatever it is, its not as if it will change people's habits much.

  • Not only was that a pretty bad report that didn't show any proof other than the kid said so, but this was a pretty bad piece by CBS as well. Really? A 12 year old kid advising the masses??? Energy drinks actually DO WORK, but they work by raising your blood pressure. They are not good for you.

  • I'm 12 and what is this?

  • this video is stupid this prep kid needs to get a life this makes monster look stupid

  • What are you guys? Eight?

    "I'm not listening to a 12 year old"

    "I drink them for taste not energy stupid kid"

    "I'm still gonna drink monster"

    He never said to stop drinking monster. Did you even watch the video? He said himself that he still drinks energy drinks. Nobody is asking to change your lifestyle here. This was simply an informative video, not an attempt to attack your favorite drink. Insecure much?

  • @LazyBuhdaBelly hell ya

  • rofl i drink energy drinks for taste not for energy, everybody i know that drinks them drinks for taste, want energy? drink a coffee or some shit. and besides i don't think this will hurt their sales one bit...

  • I’m a big fan of energy drinks, I recently discovered Xs energy drinks and now i sell them too. 0 carbs 0 sugar! NO crash! All the energy comes from vitamins, there’s no taurine and other crap. Our energy drinks consist of over 10 flavors, (we just came out with Xs classic, which tastes like red bull but better), and two of them contain no caffeine. If you’re an energy drink fan definitely contact me

    Stana7x@yahoo.com

  • It just tastes good no homo

  • ENERGY DRINK ADDICTION:

    wakedafuckup (dot) com

  • who the fuck drinks them for energy or sports? wtf its just for taste. that little fuucking kid doesnt know anything like his shit ass dad

  • No Crap! Monster energy wont help for sports! unless you've got a keg full of monster on the sideline! (that would be sweet!) and plus every athlete knows sugar and soda only make you cramp up! (pickle juice helps with cramps)...anyways MONSTER ENERGY ROX

  • you know they used 2 do more 4 me but I have 2 drink like 5 now to even feel a bit awake. I hate those health assholes that wine about them haveing 2 much caffine. cause they dont.

  • Fuck energy, i drink it for the taste!

  • @FRr3AkOnALEaSh lol me too

  • doesnt matter were still gonna drink Monster

    UNLEASH THE BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Rofl, a father using his kid to send his angry message against energy drinks. "He did most of it" LOL ya right.

  • Hes just mad that his dad doesn't allow him to drink Monster.

  • who gives a flying fuck about what a twelve year old says

  • oh wow hes what 10. im glade they had a kid doing a study like that we better listen.

  • Fuck this video! Monster kicks ass!

  • who cares. i just drink them because i like the flavor. theyre not going to kill you, theyre not going to give you a turbo boost and make you perform better; they just taste good.

    my doctor said that the worst thing about them is the effect of sugar on your teeth. just brush twice daily and drink them in moderation. ive been drinking them daily for 4 years and im healthy

  • I DECLARE BULLSHIT!

  • Monster for the win best energy drink ever!!!

  • FUCK U!!!

  • hey dumbasses harvard study shows caffein doesnt stunt growth

  • Stunt growth?

    I'm 14 and I'm 6ft tall, I've been drinking caffeinated drinks since 10 or 11.

  • I wonder if that kid is getting nailed up the ass? They all look like perverts.

  • there is nothing wrong with energy drinks, when used in extreme excess are MILDLY dangerous ,i can completely explain what they do in your body's cells to enhance ATP production , witch is just a more stable form of useable energy than sugar , by the way your bodys doesant use sugar for energy , it uses sugar for ATP synthesis and uses ATP for energy ,if your body used sugar as an energy source ,we'd spontaniously combust due to extreme heat production ,this kids just looking at visable results

  • well the body mistakes caffine for calcium so your bone growth is wrong

  • your too young dont drink monster it will stunt your growth wait till ur at least 16-17

  • thats bullshit , caffine and sugar have NEVER been PROVEN to stunt growth , its not as big of a problem as everyone makes it , its a boost of sugar to your body's cells so they can metabolise

    ATP , witch is just a more stable and storable form of energy then sugar , this proscess requires water and oxygen to break the chemical bonds , witch leaves you semi-dehydrated and drowsy , thats "the crash"

  • lol thats epic he didnt get a ''A'' n it got on the news n accepted in a medical jurnal epic xD

  • What the fuck? There's a reason why energy drinks aren't for people younger than 18. Even if you're 16 that's okay, but 12? You're body is young of course it won't affect you much...

    Energy drinks, to me, are if you're in school doing work, not for sports at all. Gatorade is for sports. Energy drinks is for staying up and trying to stay focused.

  • and gatorades "electrolites" are complex salts that eventually dehydrate you , you wanna know what THE best hydrating drink is ? distilled water not tap water , distilled , in fact if you drink too much distilled water , your cells become over expanded and can burst through simple diffusion , high concentration of salt inside of your cells , witch wants to move out to the distilled water , thus the distilled water moves in , allowing the most efficient use of water for respiration
