On average how much of a 70 proof does it take to get drunk?!


Question: 1-3 shots is enuff to get you fked up.


Answers: 1-3 shots is enuff to get you fked up.

Alcohol tolerance varies widely by sex, race, age, health and prior drinking history.

There is no way to answer this question definitively.

what's your number? we'll race shots, I do 1, you do 10

There is no "average" that can be given for a question like this and anyone that gives you one is clueless.

For example, 2 females, each 5'2, each weighing 120 pounds, each with the same amount of fat and muscle on their body, and each drinking for the very first time will require different amounts to get drunk. Each person's metabolism is different and it also depends on how much you have ate and other factors.

There isn't really an average. Alcohol tolerance varies from person to person.

A person can be legaly intoxicated on 1 or 2 drinks and possibly get a dui.

Alcohol intoxication varies from person to person. Typically an 80-proof drink, which contains 40% of EtOH by volume, therefore a 70proof drink contains 35% EtOH by volume.

Under normal conditions, 2oz of the 70proof EtOH will give a person a blood alcohol level of 0.02. If this person continues to drink at a rate of, lets says, 2oz every 10 minutes. Within the hour, this person can be consider drunk by law, which a blood alcohol level of 0.12%.

In many research or alcohol study, many people with a blood alcohol level of 0.12% will have difficulty with their motor coordination skills.

Consider this, a typical drink (12oz of beer, 8oz of wine, or 1.5 oz of 80proof alcohol), will give you a blood alcohol level of 0.02. You can excrete alcohol at a rate of 0.005 per hour.

I am so tired of this question, there is no telling how much is needed to get someone drunk it varies wildly due to
blood volume
liver function
body mass
rate of consumption
temperature
diet
blood sugar level
age
level of hydration
race
gender
and what definition of drunk you are using.
happy? you made me type it all again

if you want not to get drunk easily try drinking 2 tablespoons of oil 30 mins before you start drinking then you wont get drunk that easily..
