It DOUBLES the effect of alcohol, so if you want to get really drunk for really cheap, drink one of those while drinking. I was taken a bit by suprise a couple of years ago at a buisness Christmas party, after about 4 shots, over the course of a couple hrs, I was toast, and I had a good tolerance.

I didn't read the entire thread but for those who haven't tried "5 hour energy" yet - DO SO!
I've tried damn near every energy drink on the market and NONE compare or even come close. 5 hour energy doesn't make you feel all weird and there's no come-down.
Try it.. seriously. It's generally sold right next to the register, unrefrigerated. It's awesome stuff

Uh well if 5hr energy is anything like the Stacker 6hr energy that I bought I will never get it. EVER! I bought that stuff one night when I needed to stay up and I was like a crack fiend! It was horrible, after about 15mins. my face was red and heart was beating really fast. After 20 mins. I was red all across my chest and arms, and itching like a crackhead, couldn't breath deeply and felt light headed. Seriously that stuff was CRAZY...

You retards really should read the ingredients on things before you take them...
Stacker, Spike, Redline, Tight and various others are fat burning supplements, they're created to push your entire system into overdrive ... yohimbine, synthetic ephedrine, synephrine, 200-300+mg caffiene per serving (and they're usually 2 servings), Yerba Mate, Guarana Seeds (the last two of which people occasionally have severe allergic reactions to), and various other things...
Now what I like about Redline is the use of tryptophan, that's personally a plus for me, because it means I don't have to supplement either 5HTP during the day, nor melatonin at night...
You can't drink most of those drinks like you would a monster, sobe no fear, or redbull ... those drinks spike the **** out of your insulin (even the sugar free ones, scarily enough), and you can't expect them not to work the way they're intended to work. I've been using red line, tight and spike all at various times for very lengthy times over the last 3 or 4 years, and I've yet to hit a spot where they just don't effect me, but you also have to know what, when, how and why you're taking it.
those of you who get the red rashes or itches, or shakes, or whatever, are sensitive to some of those ingredients (synephrine being one of them I'm sure)
and, chances are, you're freaking out like a crackhead because you've not experienced much similar to it from something you just decided to drink... you can control it, and use it to your advantage in many different situations, not just working out.
However, if you're not doing much (like, sitting at a computer at home, or at the office, or whathaveyou), you're prone to not exert any of the excess energy you've put into your body.
I'm not overly fond of the 5 hr energy, but it's probably because that, unfortunately, just didn't give me the effect I desired.
and yes, if you drink more than a can and a half of red line, you may be prone to heart palpatations, however, it does depend on your height, weight, metabolism, and what you're doing as well... if you're just sitting on your *** and down two of them, then you deserve to have heart palpatiations....
having a heart attack though, ehh, not as likely.

I've got a bottle of the pills. And I drink a Redline religiously before I jump on the bike to go to work.
The drink seems to set in faster/harder, but the pills arent terrible either...
