Some reading in case you hadn't heard about it: http://espn.go.com/action/story/_/id/8544074/monster-energy-sued-wrongful-death-teen-girl http://blogs.laweekly.com/informer/2012/10/anais_fournier_monster_energy_death_lawsuit.php The medical examiner determined she died of caffeine toxicity. The 14yo girl drank two 24oz cans of Monster in a 24hr period. That's roughly 480mg of caffeine. So we'll go with the low end of that scale: 480/150=3.2kg 3.2kg=7.05lbs Even if she only weighed 70lbs, she still should've been able to consume roughly ten times more than she did. So how can this be ruled caffeine toxicity? I drink way more caffeine than that on a daily basis. Last thought. Right on the can, it says, "Not recommended for children, pregnant women or people sensitive to caffeine." She was 14yo. I count that as a child. She also had a hereditary heart condition which weakened the connective tissue around her heart. Can Monster really be responsible for the death of a girl who shouldn't have been drinking their product to begin with? Something just doesn't seem to make sense here. PS: RedBull > Monster
