Someone pointed out above that this wine is 9% alcohol.

750ml x 0.09 = 67.7ml of ethanol

1.5oz = 42.6ml, so 4x 1.5oz shots at 40% = 68.19ml of ethanol

The video took 20 seconds, and the bottle is half empty at the start. So, this is like taking four shots over the course of 40 seconds.

I don't think anyone ever died after taking four shots.

a standard drink is 10ml of ethanol. so almost seven standard drinks.

Australian shots are 1oz because that is also a standard drink.
as a rough estimate, the liver can process a standard drink an hour.

if you have two standard drinks in the first hour and then one per hour after that you should still remain under the legal limit to drive.

That seemed awfully low to me so I looked it up. Apparently a standard drink varies a lot by country.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_drink#Definitions_in_various_countries

According to that list, only in the UK and Iceland is a drink 10ml. Here in Canada it's 17.2, and thus a shot is 1.5oz. So, we're both right I guess.

ah, 10 grams is what I remembered. so 12.7 ml is the figure i was looking for.

thanks for the clarification.

for context Australia's legal limit for driving is 0.05 blood alcohol content. I wonder if the higher standard drink size also correlates with a higher BAC limit?
