The fatal dose of caffeine is fairly low, though. I'm sure it depends on body mass and such, but it's on the order of tens of grams.

- SOLAR_FIELDS 9y agoThe amount is roughly equal to (slightly more) than three 16 fl-oz cans of Red Bull. Certainly enough to give someone hyperactive shakes, but not normally enough to kill someone. Tolerance might play a factor, but I can down two of these cans without too much issue && do so probably once a month or so during a particularly long workday when I haven't had enough sleep. I wonder if dosage time was a factor. Even though the half-life of caffeine is super long my ingestion of ~0.3g typically happens over the course of 4 hours or so.
