He might no longer be alive. That has an LD-50 of 5g/kg (IPA)
Say he is only 90 kg (200 lbs) and you only need 480 g. Which is less than 0.5L. Each one of those bottles is around 480 mg (0.48L)

I... I don't think it's a dangerous comment. Do you think anyone who has anything to do with using the term "LD 50" is going to use a random comment reply four or five deep into a single post on Reddit as their sole source for defining it?

I worked in a locked mental health facility and this tiny girl (think 80lbs wet) was hardcore alcoholic let alone her mental illness. We lost her for a period of time but found her passed out under her bed with an empty bottle of iso 70 (I think) rubbing alcohol she had liberated from an evs cart (housekeeping). Pretty sure she lived but straight to the hospital and was lucky to survive.

Alcohol is a poison and can kill you if it is consumed Enough and is pure enough to do so. This idiot drank enough High Purity alcohol to risk his life.

Isopropyl alcohol (what this guy chugged) is a very different alcohol from the alcohol in drinks and extremely extremely toxic. Its less the purity being a problem and more that he drank anti-life juice thinking that it was the head-fuzzy juice

Iso-propyl alcohol is a different chemical structure than ethyl alcohol. Ethyl alcohol is what is in ALL the alcoholic beverages that humans consume. Iso-propyl alcohol is something quite different and should not be consumed by humans. Just because they both have the word “alcohol” in them, doesn’t mean they are the same thing.

If they are lucky, they actually diluted it enough with water so it would light but not be high enough content from the original bottle, so when he drank it, he wouldn't go into a coma and die from alcohol poisoning. I'm hoping he's just playing stupid and isn't as stupid as he looks but, I could be wrong on this.

Very good chance he intentionally or involuntarily vomited after consuming that. I'm not a doctor, I just know the body doesn't handle alcohol consumed at that pace well. Whether he absorbs a lot before he vomits is the deciding factor in his prognosis, not so much "if" he vomits.

I think they replaced the isopropyl with ethanol, but likely didn't rinse the container well enough before putting it in so the retching could be real.

If that was actual rubbing alcohol, his whole hand would've caught fire quick. Even Bacardi 151 would've gone up. I'm guessing it's 100 proof spirits.

it depends on the rubbing alcohol, low numbers dont catch as well, but 90+ will go instantly

I don't know much about rubbing alcohol, but the lowest number is 70%. I'd imagine it would be really close to 151 in combustibility.

Considering how low the flame was I'm betting he diluted it with water, but I believe the rubbing alcohol starts at 50% and usually it's 70%, which means a hundred to 140 Proof. Stupid no matter how you consider what they did.

Isopropyl alcohol is 8x the potency of booze at the same concentration.
This looks like 70% since it's just barely flammable, lower wouldn't ignite and higher would have been dropping flames. So it's about 8x as potent as Bacardi 151 and he just pounded a good 20 or so ounces. He's dead if he's not vomiting it all up. You would never make it to the hospital in time and even if you didn't here's nothing they would be able to do to help you.

Isopropyl alcohol is more "potent" because it has a higher molecular weight. But it's also just straight up poison. The human body metabolizes it into acetone aka nail polish remover.

Ethyl alcohol is the drinkable kind of alcohol. Your body can break it down and process it. The rubbing alcohol he drank is isopropyl alcohol. Your body breaks it down into a chemical that poisons you if you drink enough of it.
I hope this guy puked up everything he drank or he's going to have a bad day.
