Why am I still alive?!


Question: Why am I still alive!?
A couple weeks ago I went to my friends party and had about 6-8 shots in maybe 2 hours!. I'm 105 pounds at 5 ft!. 3!. I actually ended up driving home 2 hours after I'd gotten to the party and made it back without a scratch, although the ride was pretty damn scary and I'm not driving that drunk again!. The thing is, my BAC would have been like a !.26 or something, so I shouldn't have been able to stand up straight, let alone drive!. I don't really understand, is it because I have a fast metabolism!?
Please don't give me lectures or anything I know it was dumb already I don't need to hear that from anybody else!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
I think your metabolism had an effect on it!. Your drinks were spaced out enough that you could get some of that out of your system before you drank more!. It could also be affected by what you ate, alcohol has a stronger affect if your stomach is empty!. All in all, you were very lucky!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

luck!. God!.
those things won't always be there for you next time!.
make this a habit and you'll most likely end up in a jail cell or underground!.
do not ever do that again, get someone else to drive you!. i know you don't want to be lectured, but i am just letting you know!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I flipped my car over last summer, drunk as he**, and my bf at the time and I made it out without a scratch!.!.!.thanks to God!.!.but my brand new car!? Totaled!. It was a lesson for me, and this will be one for you, it just wasn't your time!.!.but just your time to learn, babe!. God bless u, hun!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Why are u still alive!? Because you got lucky!.

Next time maybe you won't!. It was pretty ignorant of you to endanger other people's lives by driving! If you don't care about hurting yourself, at least think about the other innocent people on the road!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Im glad that you're safe at home but, honestly driving drunk isn't that smart not to mention selfish!. You put a lot of people in jeapordy besides yourself!. You were very careless!. If you dont want lectures then you're posting in the wrong forum!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i hate people like you!. how dare you risk other people's lives so arrogantly,and then say 'don't lecture me'!. its a lot better than the lecture you would have got in the courts!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It was either fast metabolism, or sheer dumb luck!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

6-8 shots isnt that bad, what was it, depends on the proof alsoWww@FoodAQ@Com

people have different tolerance levels as well!. I used to drink 3 times that much every night and by the end of my partying days it was hard to just catch a buzzWww@FoodAQ@Com

Obvisly god was by your side that whole night!. you are really lucky!. Be happy u are alive i lost my brother in a drunkin driven accident so im glad u r okWww@FoodAQ@Com

Jesus Christ all the way!.

I am glad you put your concern in perspective, luv!. Sounds like you learned a lesson!. I had the same experience when I was like 18!. I ran my car into a ditch and cement culvert on someones driveway at about 50mph!. I broke my C-2 vertibrae (second vert!. below my skull)!.!.!.!.and would have paralyzed me from the neck down!. I was lucky!. The bone broke, but did not move!.!.!.!.thereby not involving my spinal cord!. My car was not so lucky!. It was totalled!. I spent a week in traction!.!.!.and in one of those neck contraptions for the next three months!. I completely recovered!. I am glad you are still alive!. You only live once!.
