They should let him go, all the celebrities get away with it. I mean look at brandy, she killed somebody and now she is chillaxin in florida.

[TECHKLEC]

This guy was super bombed!

[bobTom37]

lmao this guy was .01 away from dying thats insane. HE knows how to party

[Noahthebeast09]

When I was 15 I snuck into my dads liquor cabinent and started drinking all kinds of drinks I got wasted and thought to myself "I aint that drunk" So I got wasted again and I ended up getting hospitilized with a BAC of .32 I was out of my head thinking that I was a soldier and enemy soldiers where trying to kill my family.

It makes no sense that alcohol is perfectly legal and pot is illegal which drug is deadlier? I know from personal experience.

@dmb718 And to add to that, if you want facts... the L.D. 50 for alcohol is .40% Blood Alcohol Content. That means at .4, 50% of human beings will die. Therefore, I claim complete bullshit on your comment.

[dmb718]

@DjAlgis I'm gonna go ahead and call bullshit on this. If your blood was 4.5% alcohol you would no question be dead. I'd say its .03 legal, .45 fatal, record 1.173 (which is still extremely hard to believe.)

[thoraxxx2]

he beat my fuckin record!

[magiclard]

I hope and pray he gets himself sorted out.

[MrFreedomrequired]

@CraftLulz I agree if our supervisors and role models of life can get away with it so should she...government in all countries and people everywhere need to wake up

[KingCobraOutlaw]

dude .5 aint that hard to get but the most i ever heard of a guy doing was a .9 something i had a damn .43 last night and wasnt even that drunk as i was being taken into the hospital by cops lol

[Danath23]

I guess that proud record belongs to my country... 1.23 and still alive ;-] and the other 1,48 but he was riding a moto,crashed and died in hospital from the wounds (not from the alcohol) :D:D

[zahbaz]

THAT GUYS THE FUCKING MAAAAAAN!
