Shocking: Hungarian man breaks world record for highest blood alcohol level ever

In the Hungarian-majority town of Bácskertes (Kupusina) in Serbia, police took action against a drunk cyclist. After he managed to get off his bicycle, the man was given a breathalyser. The police could not believe their eyes when they saw the result. How is this man still alive?

The breathalyser given to the Hungarian man in Bácskertes showed an unbelievable number: the device showed an alcohol level of 5.67‰, Helló Magyar reports.

According to the alkoholizam.com portal, alcohol levels of 4.5‰ to 5.0‰ and above are fatal. The reason is that it paralyses the respiratory centre of the body, followed by paralysis of the circulatory system, which also leads to a fatal outcome. Death occurs 5 to 10 hours after the onset of unconsciousness, Délhír informs. A picture of the breathalyser can be seen in the article of Délhír.

According to experts, a blood alcohol concentration of as little as 0.35-0.45 grams per litre can cause death. This means that the amount of alcohol found in the man’s body is equivalent to 12 deaths. But that did not stop him from getting on his bike.

According to the Serbian press, the doctors were stunned as to how the man from Bácskertes could have survived. However, his health parameters were “within normal limits”.
