Got another bizarre medical case for you today, and this one feels like it came straight out of idiocracy.
This one happened in 2020 and it involves a 54-year-old jackass man who was admitted due to seizures and an altered mental state.
But why?
Well... The fucking retard mistaked a bottle of motor juice for an energy drink 😂😂
We present the case of a 54-year-old man who developed seizures and altered mental status after drinking 12 oz. of MMT-containing NOS Octane Booster Racing Formula. Due to label similarities, he mistook this for the NOS High Performance energy drink.
Sure, ok the two bottles look somewhat similar...But I bet it takes a special kind of high to mistake the two after the first sip 😳
Anyways.. Unsurprisingly this was the first came of a human ingesting MMT. And chances are it will be the last.
Human ingestion of MMT has not previously been reported
Unfortunately our idiot friend managed to survive and hence missed his shot in winning a shiny Darwin award.
It did take him a while to recover though and after about 5 days he was symptom free:
The patient was intubated due to persistent seizures despite benzodiazepine treatment and admitted to the intensive care unit. He had two further seizures while intubated, but he was successfully extubated on the 4th day post-ingestion. He was confused and ataxic following extubation, but one day later his symptoms resolved and he was discharged without further incident.
I love the conclusion written by the authors of the case
Manufacturers should avoid food products with label similarities to chemicals or other non-food items. Instances of such similarities should be reported to the FDA by poison centers and clinicians.
Yeah... Retards gonna retard regardless of how many warning signs and text you put.. I mean...We live in an era where the tide pod challenge was a think so 🤦🤷
