Is chugging tons of water in a short time bad?!


Question: Is chugging tons of water in a short time bad?
I just drank an entire 700 ml water bottle in like 30 seconds in a water drinking contest. Is this bad? I feel really gassy and bloated but that's about it. Is this bad?

Very bad not to war you bt you can die if you dont go to the e.r.

It would be best to spread your water consumption throught the day. 1/2 your body weight in ounces.

Yes and No. You need to drink nearly 15 gallons of water to die of too much water. You drank roughly 24 ounces, one gallon is about 128 ounces.

You can die drinking too much water at once as the salt your body needs to function gets washed out.
