In college, I remember drinking a half gallon of 2% milk in about 5 minutes just because I was thirsty. I'm 6'4" and 185 lbs and used to eat about 6000 calories per day. I played volleyball and basketball at least 5 hours per day so the energy had to come from somewhere. I used to eat cereal from a bucket which was originally the container for the Halloween kids meal at Carl's Jr. The bucket held the burger, fries, and a prize and was meant to be used by kids to collect candy on Halloween night. My mini-fridge in my dorm room was just big enough to hold 4 gallons of milk which is the only reason I did not need to go to the store every other day for more milk.

The only person to complete it had to use the bathroom about 10 times after, but he managed to keep it down. It is possible We did it Saturday.

The whole three hour thing at the end might just be a house rule type thing. He is also wrong about no one doing it, my mom is a fire fighter and has seen one Irish guy do it. He was accustomed to drinking really heavy buttermilk or something like that, so the whole milk was nothing. To the average person it is impossible, I helped a friend drink the gallon we both got sick at half a gallon.

Your stomach can not hold 1 gallon of milk and you cant digest it fast enough so therefore you can not do it. hey, it is 1 gallon of Whole Milk in 1 hour and you must not vomit for 3 hours… there is a group that actually does this every year in U.S. and nobody has ever been able to do it because it is impossible to do.

I don't know why you can't see the video. Maybe some flash thing isn't installed on your browser. Not sure. I'm definitely not going to try again though.

I was ready to watch it, with my fingers positioned a certain way over my eyes, just in case, but for some reason, the video isn't coming through. :o( I'm not a milk drinker. The thought of drinking a whole gallon makes me want to puke. LOL! I guess you won't be trying that again. LOL! I have never heard about this.
