If it wasn't for Red Bull I wouldn't get to see people doing crazy things as much. They might still happen, but I wouldn't know about them. I'm glad they don't sponsor/promote boring stuff!!
He risk of death is, subconsciously, what draws the human mind to it - that's why he is doing it and why many people will watch it. Not because they want to see death or be killed, but because they want to see/be flirting with Death and Binky.
He will be the FIRST man going supersonic with no engine, just gravity. So thus the hype.
I just wonder why RedBull organisers let the hype begin with doubtful forecasts which should be quite accurate 12h before.
And that they didnt figure out any way to start this fragile baloon in light gusts - like they cant hang it high enough not to drag it on the ground.
Well, it smells of poison, has the color of poison, tastes of poison and is just as useful to human body as diesel fuel. Other that that it's great.
And then I ask you again, prove to me that the drink is bad, as if it tastes bad for me or the other 100's of millions buying it.
If you can do that I respect it, but speaking from your own behalf I simply can't respect. The only reason you're not dead yet is because you have a bad ass Corolla, just like me.
According to this article on the Beeb news site, the winds are only a factor from the floor to around 250m, anything over 3 mph is too much and the launch crane cannot keep up.

Don't take it too bad it's all in a good tone.
Okay, despite placebo being the only positive effect caused by drinking it and the only reason making people drink it being a great marketing scheme, and ignoring all the nausea and toothache, it's pretty good, I guess. Sorry, but I really don't think that drink is useful for anything else than making money.
100's of millions buying it doesn't say anything about quality, but more about advertising. Like, for example, there always are people buying those expensive fuel activators and putting them in their cars, even though those are just simple magnets. Some even reported decreased fuel consumption, although it's obvious how much bullshit it is.
Or if you can explain why is it good, I'll consider apologizing, as you've said you like my car once, and I value that a lot.

Energy drinks contain caffeine, which has measurable and well described effect on CNS. In this respect energy drinks work just like a cup of coffee. Other usual ingredients include taurine (An aminoacid. It's known to help prevent certain heart diseases and improve mental performance), B-family vitamins and glucose (human brain needs glucose to function).
There is no placebo effect nor are any of the substances that an energy drink is made of toxic. Of course, too high consumption can lead to side effects and even diseases, but hey, you can die of drinking way too much water.
i can approve sideeffects by consuming too much. i used to drink every morning 1 can,when i did 13-16 hours of work for a long period,and my liver started to hurt prettybad,plus when i got home i was more tired than before,this is a sideeffect too. But lets keep this topic ontopic,and open a new thread for agrguing about energydrinks. i cant find one :P
