Can Red Bull or other energy drinks give a false positive result on drug test?

I would not rely on it. Neither cranberry juice nor vinegar nor bleach nor any other household liquid can be relied upon to pass a drug test, so I don't see why Red Bull would be any different.

Red Bull is mainly water, caffeine, and B-vitamins. Some people swear that B-vitamins, especially niacin, can help you pass a drug test, but there is no reliable evidence to say that they do.

I'm guessing that the other reason people say Red Bull works is the caffeine: caffeine is a diuretic, meaning it dehydrates you by making you pee out a lot of the water in your body. So, you can see why someone would think caffeine would help: if it flushes out the water in your body, then it must flush out the drugs, too, right? Well, no. It may help flush the drugs out a little faster, but since you pee out most drugs (like speed, cocaine, Ecstasy, opiates) in about 3 days anyway, caffeine isn't going to help significantly.

Furthermore, marijuana is fat-soluble (it is stored in your fat cells) so no liquid will help flush it out of your body. To help get marijuana out of your system, you need to exercise. Exercise burns fat, including the THC that is stored in the fat.

Is red bull made out sperm?

This gets asked frequently, and the answer is and always has been: NO.

Red Bull and other energy drinks do not contain Bull Sperm. This idea came about since there is an ingredient called "Taurine" in it. This ingredient is NOT bull sperm but an aminoethanesulfonic acid, particularly in this case, an extremely high quality synthetic production of this acid.

Naturally occurring Taurine is necessary for normal skeletal muscle functioning, even assisting with those affected with congestive heart failure by increasing the force and effectiveness of heart-muscle contractions. It also acts as an antioxidant and inherently protects against toxicity of various substances (such as lead and cadmium). Additionally, supplementation with taurine has been shown to prevent oxidative stress induced by exercise.
no
Categorically: no.

Bull sperm is made up of different substances, including the amino acid Taurine.

Taurine occurs naturally in all sorts of places, including human bile, bull bile, testes and urine. It was first extracted from Ox bile.

Secondly, the Taurine that we find in food and drink products today is not extracted from any part of animals; who would want that job?! Instead, it is artificially made in laboratories.

You can drink energy/stimulation drinks without fear that you are ingesting bull sperm.

Red Bull is subject to numerous unproven claims of adverse health effects, most of which are urban legends. In 2001, the drink was investigated by the Swedish National Food Administration after being linked to the deaths of three consumers, and was completely cleared. It has been subject to a number of other health concerns regarding glucuronolactone, a precursor of taurine. Glucuronolactone is a naturally occurring chemical compound produced by the metabolism of glucose in the human liver. It has received some notoriety due to urban legends that it was a Vietnam War-era drug manufactured by the American government. The rumor goes on to say that it was banned due to several brain tumor-related deaths. The rumor has since been proven false, as neither the cited British Medical Journal article nor the "banning of its consumption" ever occurred. Due to the link with taurine, only energy drinks without taurine are sold in France, but infant formula sold there (and worldwide) is commonly supplemented with taurine. Furthermore, no warnings appear on the Food and Drug Administration website regarding its potential to cause brain tumors or other maladies.

What can happen if you drink vodka and red bull?

Alcohol is a depressant and caffeine is a stimulant. Drinking both at the same time overloads the central nervous system. Not to mention how bad energy drinks are for you period.

According to the National Institute of Health, an energy drink and alcohol combination carries a number of dangers:

High levels of caffeine and stimulants mixed with alcohol produce chronic headaches, impair judgment, create shortness of breath, dizziness, disorientation and can boost heart rate and blood pressure to dangerous levels.

Since energy drinks are stimulants and alcohol is a depressant, the combination of effects may be dangerous because they are sending mixed messages to your nervous system. The stimulant effects can mask how intoxicated you are and prevent you from realizing how much alcohol you have consumed. Fatigue is one of the ways the body normally tells someone that they've had enough to drink.

The stimulant effect can give the person the impression he or she isn't impaired. No matter how alert you feel, your blood alcohol content or BAC is the same as it would be without the energy drink. Once the stimulant effect wears off, the depressant effects of the alcohol will remain. In addition, there currently is no demonstrable research evidence that these combo drinks do anything to reduce the negative effects of motor coordination and visual reaction times.

- Both energy drinks and alcohol are very dehydrating (the caffeine in energy drinks is a diuretic). Dehydration can hinder your body's ability to metabolize alcohol and will increase the toxicity, and therefore the hangover, the next day.
