Is it possible to drink a bottle of tequila and not get drunk?

Answer 1

Three to five drinks will put a person at the blood alcohol level that qualifies as "impaired." People who are already alcoholics, with a high tolerance to alcohol and experience at navigating with high blood alcohol levels, may not show it to the untrained eye, but they are just as impaired in terms of judgment, reaction time and other mental and physical activities as anyone else: they just have more practice at doing it.

People who brag about such feats are full of -- tequila. They may believe it, but remember that judgment and critical thinking are the first things to go when we begin our alcohol intake: so what kind of witness are they, really? There is also an issue called "euphoric recall, too complicated to get into here, that tends to make people forget drunken escapades and minimize their level of intoxication.

Short answer: no way, not within about a 36-hour period.
