The internet is such a database of useless but fun facts now isn't it?

Nah. The stomach completely disintegrates and the Coke heads straight for the bladder.

Of course, so does everthing else.

I don't believe what that website says. One can just about did me in. I was drinking Amp one time. It was a slim can, probably only 8 oz. About halfway through, my upper back started to REALLY ache. When I finished the can it was horrible. It was hard to sleep that night. It was still achey the next day, but started getting better. I will never drink another "energy" drink again. I don't know for sure if it was Amp or not, but I'm not going to take any chances. I'll just stick with normal pop if I want any caffeine.

I had a can of Amp the other day - Put me to sleep. Wired does the opposite - makes you wired! Not sure why Amp makes me drowsy - probably because of the massive amount of sugar - a small high followed by a crash.

I had half a can of Jolt after a long day at work and an evening looking after a youth group full of teens with energy to burn. I have never felt so awake in my life! Still was able to go to sleep without a problem.
