Caffeine - http://www.cbc.ca/news/health/caffeine-coroner-1.4116942
A South Carolina teenager who collapsed in a high school classroom last month died because he drank several highly caffeinated drinks too quickly, a coroner says.
Davis Allen Cripe, 16, drank a latte from McDonald's, a large Mountain Dew soda, and a highly caffeinated energy drink in just under two hours, said Gary Watts, the coroner of Richland County, South Carolina.
Watts told Reuters by phone that physicians on his staff determined that Cripe died from a "caffeine-induced cardiac event causing a probable arrhythmia."
According to caffeineinformer.com, a McDonald's latte has 142 milligrams of caffeine, a 20-ounce Mountain Dew has 90 milligrams, and a 16-ounce energy drink can have as much as 240 milligrams.WHAT CAN WE LEARN FROM THIS TRAGEDY?

According to the grand jury report, Beta Theta Pi pledges were forced to consume heavy amounts of alcohol in a short amount of time as part of a hazing ritual. Within three hours, prosecutors say Piazza fell down a flight of basement stairs. He was then hit and humiliated repeatedly while in and out of consciousness. And, despite an obvious head-injury no one called for help.
