Drivers have been warned about caffeine excess after a man was jailed for leading police on a 50-mile car chase after drinking 20 cans of Red Bull.
Peter Edwards, 48, from King's Lynn, was jailed for four months on Friday after Norwich Crown Court heard he was pursued across Cambs and Norfolk.
His car was seen "swerving from side to side" across the A10, the court heard.

Well, Coca-cola started out with cocaine in it. When this was made illegal, they switched to amphetamines and then to caffeine when amphetamines became controlled.

Also tastes awful - I've never tried Red Bull, so I can't make a comparison.

Thats not strictly true. They use coca leaves which meant it used to have a tiny amount of cocaine in the drink. But when the backlash against cocaine started they simply moved to spent coca leaves - leaves with the cocaine part removed. As for the caffeine, its been in it from the start, it came from the kola nuts.

Red bull gives you ... ... a heart attack?

There is (apparently) some evidence to suggest that excessive amounts of caffiene after strenuous exercise can cause heart attacks.

Red bull contains an awful lot of caffiene.
