I'm pretty sure they're saying they didn't experiment on anyone over 0.15 BAC, because they felt that those people were unable to give true consent.

> A blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.15% is considered a very high level, resulting in severe impairment of balance, coordination, and muscle control, making walking and talking difficult. At this level, you may experience confusion, vomiting, loss of consciousness

How this intoxication level was measured? I seriously doubt they carried scales and analyzed blood samples, before asking for consent!

Breathalyzer tests. Was that a real question?

Which different countries use different constants to convert to blood alcohol concentrations. But the conversion factor isn’t constant, even if laws pretend it is.

The same “breath” reading could give you 15% different results depending on the country the test is taken in…

		Oh, are you concerned that the event took place across multiple countries? That is a weird concern.
