If you can inhale four or five gallons really quick, only then should you really be worried. For an hour, that amount? No.
This sounds legit

I actually heard this, apparently the one death ever from Ecstasy was a person who drank so much their brain flooded.
is that like flooding an engine?
Although I have flooded engines, I don't have any idea what that means. I have not flooded any brains (that I know of), but I'm pretty sure it involves swelling and pressure. So, are they alike?
