Woman With .708 Blood-Alcohol Level Pleads Guilty Posted: 5:51 pm EST January 19, 2010Updated: 5:56 pm EST January 19, 2010 Comment On This Story ›› STURGIS, S.D. -- A South Dakota woman who prosecutors say had a blood-alcohol level almost nine times the legal driving limit has pleaded guilty to two drunken driving charges. Authorities said 45-year-old Marguerite Engle was arrested Dec. 1 when she was found passed out behind the wheel of a stolen delivery van along Interstate 90, with a blood alcohol level at 0.708. The legal limit in South Dakota is 0.08. Officials have said Engle's blood alcohol level likely is a record for the state. She was arrested again in late December, with a blood alcohol level more than 3 1/2 times the legal limit. Engle faces up to two years in jail when she is sentenced on Feb. 23. In exchange for her guilty pleas, prosecutors have agreed not to pursue other charges, including receiving stolen property and drug possession. ___ Information from: KEVN-TV, http://www.kevn.com
totally unrelated video...although that story reminded of the MWC episode where Al sold all of his blood to raise money to bet on Kelly's poolsharking skills...and told her that the brain didn't need blood...it just needed liquid...hence his drinking of beer. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/spIrhYfwi5c&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/spIrhYfwi5c&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
In December 2004, a man was admitted to the hospital in Plovdiv, Bulgaria after being struck by a car. After detecting a strong alcohol odor, doctors at a hospital conducted a breath test which displayed the man's blood alcohol content at 0.914% Concerned that their equipment was malfunctioning, doctors also performed five separate lab tests, all of which confirmed the man's incredible BAC.[36] The man was treated for serious injuries sustained in the crash but survived.[37] There have been cases reported in which individuals have supposedly survived BACs of over 1% but only limited information is available.[38] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_alcohol_content

Yeesh... looking back on my 19th birthday is kinda scary to think about. Based on the amount of booze I had, at my weight and in that period of time, my math puts me at around 0.60. This is assuming that Wikipedia's charts are anywhere near accurate. Glad my days of drinking like that are done.
Would need to break her personal record in order to hit. BTW you guys are slipping on posting pics. One more such occurance and I will ask for a permaban.
