- I was curious how many light beers it would take to get me over the legal limit of .08 so I bought a breathalyzer and decided to find out. #millerlite
Everyone processes alcohol differently so I highly recommend getting your own breathalyzer so you can have a better idea what that number is for you. For reference I am 220lbs and 5’11”.

This is the type of thing youtube was made for quality content right here.
Thank you! I appreciate the support! Cheers!
So my eight beers in an hour at my local cantina is probably not good? Now I know why I'm no longer shy when I leave. Thanks for the info my friend!
ABSOLUTELY
Thanks. This important info you just don't see. Body weight plays a big role also.
@geekfreak618 This test is unrealistic
Because no self respecting alcoholic can
15 minutes between drinks 🍺 . LoL 😂
Officer: Have you been drinking tonight, sir?
Me: Yup…6 Miller Lites.
Officer: ok, you’re free to go. I saw the video.
😭😭😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
BREV 😂
I literally laughed out loud 😂
I usually drink 6 beers before I drive, sounds about spot on!
gotta loosen up.
i love small youtube channels, they're real and pure af. ur a great example
Go for a drive and see how you do
The only true way to test it.
That way you get to use the cop's calibrated breathalyzer for free
😂😂😂
Lol
Absorption time can range from 30 minutes to 1.5 hours. If you stopped drinking at 5 beers, you would likely break .08 after giving it 45 minutes or so
7 light beers in and listening to kesha, seems about right
Looks like this popped up on other people’s feed today too, not just me… 😂
1: 0.024
2: 0.035
3: 0.042
4: 0.05
5: 0.068
6: 0.072
7: 0.093
30 minutes later, 0.12
The BAC is dependent on the amount of alcohol at a specific concentration by volume, your body weight, how long between each beer and how much you have metabolized out of your blood while waiting on the next one, and what is in your stomach to slow absorption. That’s why it’s not linear.
I did that at a bar and got this awesome little apparatus installed in my car that I have to blow into to drive, spent a night in jail, had to go to 60 hours of alcohol classes, and 30 hours community service and I weighed 202lbs!
I know about the blow and go life lmao. Mine was during Covid so I couldn’t schedule the classes and they refused to offer online options. Mofos made me keep it on 3 extra months due to not being able to get in classes. Wasn’t even drunk I was just 20. Uncle Sam will get ya!
@@codymartin4235 definitely a money racket! But, the classes were a good place to pick up party chicks!
it would have been really fdunny at the end if you were like, "Alright, I'll see you guys later, I gotta go pick up my kids" or something lmao.
When I was 17 my friend and I would drive an hour to the city to go to the 16 plus "dance party" at a roller rink. We would usually take shots and stuff before but this one time we poured a full liter of captain morgan silver into two half full big gulps and chugged them down. It kicked in while we were in the line and by the time we got in we were smashed! Went to the floor and started dirty dancing. He lasted about one song and spent the rest of the night puking in the bathroom. I danced my ass off for a few hours and had a blast. Then I had to drive us home an hour away with one headlight out. Got all the way back to town and got pulled over like 9 blocks away from our houses. I blew a .03 which would have been fine if I was 21, but I lost my license for 30 days for getting a "minor while driving". Varsity athletes can metabolize alcohol at alarming rates haha.
Are you trying to brag or..?
@@ColbyYadz If he was he would tell you about the time Ms Hershowitz the math teacher took him home after school.
You sound like someone who swings both ways, what a weird thing to brag about.
Bet you blew your "friend" several times.
2 important variables:
How much did you weigh when you drank the beers & did you drink on a full stomach?
Full stomach means nothing.
alcohol, in an empty stomach, enters your blood stream much faster than if your stomach is also digesting food.
@@MB-vk8cv Explain your nonsense comment right now lol
@@brandenlikesbeerit's a breathalyzer not a blood test,he's right .Full stomach don't matter to a breathalyzer, it's not checking your BAC,it's checking how much alcohol is in the air you blew into the machine.
@dustinpomeroy8817 which comes from???.....wait forrrr ittttt BLOOD ALCOHOL CONTENT. It's transferred through the lungs sacs into vapor the machine can read. Same thing
wow! didnt think i was ok to drive but this vid proves me wrong
Doing gods work here brother. Godspeed to you.
Thanks bro! I appreciate the support! Cheers!
You are forgetting that your body is eliminating about 1 beer per hour. That's why it took so long. If you drank it all at once and waited 15 minutes, you would have higher readings quicker. I also question the accuracy of an Amazon Roadside Screening Device when compared with a genuine RSD like Police use.
Yeah, you metabolize over time so the longer you wait the more beers you need. Chug a 6 pack then test after 15 minutes.
He's not drinking too slow, he's following the directions of the breathalyzer. You're supposed to wait a certain amount of minutes (I think it's 15-20) after the last drink you had to get the most accurate reading of BAC.
The 15 minutes is to eliminate any residual mouth alcohol that would give you an artificially high
reading.
Give it an hour no drinking and blow again you may be surprised the bac may still rise. Also that is a super cheap tool and you are probably higher than the readings. You also can get a dui at below that “magic number”. Good content video
I can drink a 6 pack of light beer in an hour and never go above .08. I'm 260lbs...
Back in my drinking days, one of my friends bought a dozen Breathalyzers (a bigger unit then this with replaceable plastic tips) and gave them to all of us. We would basically take them to the bars and see who could get the highest score lol
THIS is what I’m talkin bout.
“You are likely dancing to Kenny Loggins at this point”
I kind of want one of these now.
“Your inhibitions will be lowered“. Dances with Dog.
Im gonna use this video in court after i get arrested for drinking 6 beers then getting pulled over
Interesting video, well done. I did this at a media event with local police many moons ago. At 185 pounds, we figured my .08 limit was four light beers over two hours and probably max six over four hours. So many other factors though. Weight of individual, food in stomach to slow digestion, amount of alcohol in each beer, tiredness and time all have a bearing... and some people, depending on their health and tolerance, would fail a road sobriety test and be too intoxicated to drive safely well before the .08 mark. Since then, Ontario started pulling people off the road at .05, giving them a "warning" with a 3-day license suspension and $250 fine (plus a couple hundred bucks for court costs). At .08, it's criminal charges, longer suspensions and car impound costs, and the penalties multiply after each incident. There's also an expensive breath test ignition system you have to pay for as well. At 160 pounds, one light beer an hour (maxed at 4) is now my limit.
I know Trudy got pulled over and when he blew it registered Jagmeet.
Extra points for humour lol @@bigdaddy4197
Drinking Miller Lite.
You really took one for the team, bro!
In the following, a drink is defined as a 12oz beer, a 5oz glass of wine or a 1 1/2oz shot of 80 proof liquor. The are some exceptions to the next rule but generally people absorb AND eliminate ethyl alcohol at a rate of one drink per hour. If you only consume one alcoholic drink per hour, your BAC would be 0.000% when you stop. Absorption can be decreased by eating (especially fatty foods) or increased by drinking carbonated alcohol. Breath alcohol does not come from mouth alcohol which evaporates in 10 minutes but rather from your lungs where a blood gas exchange takes place between the alveolar air and the pulmonary capillary. The only way you can prevent lung air from reaching a PBT or other breathalyzer is to refuse the test.
Quit drinking when I was 38
How I never got DUI I will never know. Glad I didn't hurt anybody😊
but if you drank 4 beers in the first 30 minutes you would've gotten to 0.08
In college a friend got pulled over and blew a .08 was arrested for dui. Went to court and his lawyer demanded to see the certificate of calibration on the breathalyzer machine. The certificate date was past due. The judge threw his case out.
A lot of things come into play. Empty vs full stomach, body weight, male vs female, altitude, etc. Unfortunately, it's not cut and dry, but the rule of thumb is 0.02 per average drink.
Other than body weight, the biggest factor is how frequently does he drink and the quantity. Let’s try this with someone that drinks only a few times per year.
When you start calculating how many beers you can drink to reach .08, that's a sign that you probably have a problem.
The sales of this product is going to SKYROCKET lol
Mr. Lahey would be proud
But I drink 5 beers in 40min not 90min
wow big party guy here
This is the fucking science I'm here for.
I did that for my high school science fair project
I'm drinking Miller Lite right now.
I had to click!
The body digests about a beer per hour. You’re drinking kind of slower if you’re drinking one beer and waiting 15 mins and then breathalysing. You’re probably getting in 3 light beers an hour which is enough for a buzz but not super duper drunk
These light beers are just basically water now. I drank 12 Michelob Ultras Friday night and was the sober person at the poker table
Bro, I’m worried about you.
Right, just stay away from the booze…
@@hankabdallah8507’bro’ , sounds like your life is too easy if you’re worried about someone you don’t know having a good time…
@@hankabdallah8507 you sound like that guy the other day. I was like “chill bro, I’ve been drinking light beers” and he was all “you just killed 6 people and your car is sinking in a lake”. What a Karen
Dude this is classic good vid man 😅
Very cool video. The company definitely owes ya one!!! Subscribed.
This could come in handy when youre hungover and want to see if you still have alcohol in your system. Hungover driving is impaired driving and considered intoxicated.
Because it's possible to still be drunk from the night before.
My friend got kicked out of a bar in Orlando for basically using one of these devices as a game. That’s a bar I would not go to.
I also have my own personal breathalyzer, but it reacts a little differently than yours. Mine called me an idiot and said I should have gotten an Uber.
Honestly sounds about right people seem to forget .08 is actually a pretty decent buzz if your a drinker, if your a light weight you'll probably be higher.
That makes no sense. A heavy drinker would need to consume more alcohol to get the same buzz...
@humanimal5527 I was talking about body weight and being a lightweight not being an alcoholic. If your 100lbs 6 beers might be 0.10+ But 220lbs you'll probably be right at 0.08
“I pulled you over because you were swerving back there. You been drinkin?”
“It’s fine officer I’ve only had 6 beers over the last hour and a half. I’m good I’ll blow like a .07”
It depends on many factors body weight how fast you drink each one mainly eating before starting to drink beer will take more to blow over
I am not a lawyer but I would not trust that
Now do it again without waiting 15 minutes to blow after each beer.
This was surprisingly entertaining. Thank you.
Get this man some keys
5 beers would have done it if you would have waited, it takes a while for all the alcohol to end up metabolized. In some people it can take up to 30-40 minutes after they finish the alcoholic drink before max BAC is reached. You should drink 3 beers in 1 hour, take a reading, wait 15 mins, take another reading, then wait another 15 mins then take another reading, rinse and repeat for 4 readings over the next hour. You will likely hit the max BAC on either the 2nd or 3rd reading, and the 4th will be slightly lower. Also, some people metabolize alcohol extremely quickly and efficiently, others not so much. Have seen someone blow a 0.09 after just 2 beers.
Imagine what Wade Boggs bac would be with this test
"I got slight euphoria... Awesome!" - well done :) lol
Drink 6 in one hour and see what it does
I used to drink 14 a day and 2 packs of heaters before performing brain surgery on a flat bottom in the North Atlantic. I’m from Wisconsin.
You are a very average Wisconsinite.
Remember, don’t drink and drive. You might hit a bump and spill your drink.
On Happy Days they did a test similar to this. Test subjects were Richie, the Fonz, Potsie & a Cop. Drinking made Ritchie, Potsie and the Cops reactions slower....the more the Fonz drank his reactions became faster.
Pretty cool!! I can somewhat gauge my drinking when I hit the bars provided I'm drinking light beers.
Legend has it, the more you drink, the smaller your video gets when recording..
Now that is some great content right there my friend…….
No way this thing is accurate. 4 beers is over the limit
Right in the slot
I’m sober enough to know what I’m doing and drunk enough to really enjoy doing it.
@@anthonycorreia3017he was a classic

Just like Julien 👍
Right past the click
7 beers in 2.5 hrs? I remember my first beer
Hahaha I was thinking the same thing. I used to be a big time drinker and could almost kill a 5th of gin or whiskey a day. I kept a job and paid my bills, but I never want to go back to that type of intake.
Great video, imo you were buzzed the second you started dancing with the puppy, Lol
Keep in mind that when you took results after #6, you were more than likely, still going up. You should have included when the BAC peaked in between results
Good video. I’m curious if you ate food before you started drinking would the outcome be different.
I never ate before drinking. If during drinking I ate anything I was done drinking. I never could understand how people eat and drink at the same time.
rip jim lahey
First person I thought of when he busted out the breathalyzer 😂
Gotta keep a steady point 6 going that's the sweet spot 😂
It’s crazy how this video just suddenly blew up. despite being uploaded a couple years ago.
In Utah the legal limit is .05 so 4 miller lites
Mostly to punish non Mormons for drinking 😅
Is anything in Utah in current day and not 1950? Other than the meth heads in downtown SLC?
@NothingToPointOut24 Well, we have a closeted gay governor who is married to a woman. That's kind of modern
A local bar had a breathalizer on the wall. I drank 2- 12oz. 5% beers in about 45 minutes and was .08.
You might be small or their machine might round up
I've found craft beers to be inconsistent with their alcohol content. That 5% may have been 8% in reality.
Budweiser is 5.@@Gr8thxAlot
5% is a big difference from 4%
It's all about how your body metabolizes alcohol, because that's not much beer in that time ,to blow a .08
I can tell you this depends on a lot, mainly how frequently and much you drink , and when and what you last ate. I went shot for shot after smashing pizza and 11 shots and 2 beers on 4 hrs and I was a 0.06, no I would not have driven I was DRUNK. Point is the boood test is all that is accurate and if you get pulled over eat a bunch of pizza before the breathilizer.
Link to breathalyzer pls
Those 15 minutes in between would kill me.
wait to see if it goes up when you stop drinking because there can be a delayed response--
you think more than 15 minutes?
3 in one hour at 160lbs puts me over .08 on my buddies squad car breathalyzer
Officer Beer Pong?
either you're a lightweight or .08 isn't much
@@matthewgower .08 isn’t much. That’s why it’s the legal limit to operate a vehicle. I’m saying I’m not sure this guys breathalyzer is very accurate. Or he weighs 350lbs and has the metabolism of a 16yo cross country runner.
Me 3 in 35 min. At 5'9 190lbs .08

The rigorous scientific process
This is real science. He never needed a specific result.
It takes longer than 15 minutes for your body to oxidize alcohol. You are just now getting the first 2 by the time you drank the 4th.
I think if you drank 5 beers in 15 minutes you would be over 0.08. At that rate you metabolized off almost 2 beers.
ABV and style of beer have nothing to do with one another unless you’re drinking something barrel-aged or a Belgian quad or something. There’s a huge (and good) trend in low abv craft beer rn especially amongst IPAs.
Also, I work at a brewery and I’ll tell you that there is absolutely nothing wrong with Miller Lite. Quality light lager by any standard. True beer nerds know it’s one of the best macros.
lol Miller Lite is garbage - you’d be better off drinking water (from a beer snob)
Miller Lite sucks
Its all about qmount of alcohol over time. I would have done 2 ar a time and then wait 15 minutes.
I know how I feel after 15.
This video is not super helpful as your giving yourself too much time in between beers. A average man 180 pounds will blow .07 BAC with 3 of any combination of the following: 12 oz 5% beer, 5 oz 12% wine, or 1.5 oz 40% liquor.
So if you go to the bar and take 2 shots + 1 24 oz tall beer in a short window, your already over the legal limit to drive and must not drink for at least an hour to be under .08 BAC. - Veteran Bar Manager
I was thinking the same thing. I used to be a seasoned beer drinker and I would slam down cheap American beers in a few minutes. I'd be on at least my 3rd or 4th by the time 20 to 30 minutes rolled around and that's considering that I was talking with people in between sips lol. Momentum is what sends that BAC through the roof.
Absolutely love this ,my kind of channel. Made me laugh out loud right with you. Hit the like 10 seconds into this. Love it. 😂👍.
I'm going to start a TH-cam channel...but trying every brand of alcohol out there to test this. I like to give back when I can.

@@davidmitchell6873 mom has xx chromosomes. Yours?
What do you weigh?
Drink like you actually would, as in drink a beer about every 10 minutes for 2 hours at the bar, then see what you would be reading as you drive home. And you should have an experienced daily alcoholic to run the test beside you, assuming that your not a professional alcoholic. For the guys that cook at the local pub every single day, they drive there, hang for a couple hours drinking non stop and drive home. I feel that a 12 oz Miller Lite or similar every 10 minutes is a fairly standard rate of consumption, and i feel that 1.5-2 hours stay at the bar is pretty average as well. Go real world, and just keep testing after each 10 minute be and see how they stack out across that 2 hours before the drive home..... to drink more beer.
Yep. I prefer a bottled Coors light every 15 minutes. One hour in I start to catch it.
@billwilliams4877
Yep, I'm bottles only, because it stays cooler. But one every 15 minutes would be a stretch, at least in the first hour. More like 10 minutes. I slow down as I get deeper into it. It would be interesting to see more real world test.
The problem is the absorption rate. So, the theory is, theres a reason why cops have you wait like 45 min before they have you do a final blow at the station, and thats because the BAC is higher, due to absorption rate.
@AHgameplay
I get that. But waiting to drink the next beer isn't how reality is. By that first test, I'll have 3 down. Second test, 5 down. 3rd test, 7 down. Then you get to a slower roll, maybe 1 for 20 minutes. The compounding beers will also effect the amount absorbed.
@@LarryMusgrave Right, I was thinking see what every increment of the beers was gonna peak at. (now that I think of that, it wouldn't work, because as your waiting for the full absorption, simultaneously your body is oxidizing alcohol...fuq.) ~Cheerz
it takes 60-90 minutes for your BAC to peak. You were probably going to hit .08 after your 5th
Each beer is .02, it should take 4 beers, also you take off .01 for every hour
An average male body clears .02 of BAC per hour.
@@TBagrnah, it’s 0.01
No "Tears" in his Beer! Lol Great Job
Im a 320lb fat guy. I can drink light beer all day and never be over .08. You do drink to slow!!
There's no way it's legal to drive after 6 beers!!
I agree that thing is not accurate. He was chugging them as well. Should have been close to over .08 after two or maybe three beers.
@@LeiYuanHongEh, 200lb big dude, probably slower metabolism, 6 beers in 2hrs being under .08 isnt that crazy
As he Sri is the beers he is also metabolising the first ones he drank. Most people don’t wait 15 minutes between beers either. When you social drink, you throw one away and crack another within minutes. 6 light beers in 2 hours would not put you over the edge. I am a law enforcement officer, if that helps any
I don’t drive until I’ve drank at least 6
Like Mr lahey you’re now the monkey in charge of the bananas
I don't advise paying attention to this, you may end up with a DUI ?
I got one of these off Amazon once. I did a similar test. I eventually drank enough that it told me I’m likely feeling euphoric and possibly find a trans girl attractive.

He was doing it to wait until the alcohol was in his blood after each beet
The breathalyzer says you have to wait 15 mins after your last sip, to get an accurate reading.
Pretty sure that thing is not accurate. I know it depends on body size and everybody is different but I think chugging 4 beers gets you higher than a .05!
