Isn't that almost 3 gallons of soda?

I don't think the subjects they talked to were paralyzed, they were just too fat to move from drinking so much soda each day.

Red Bull Cola banned in Germany for containing cocaine

(It's worth noting that Coca-Cola uses the same de-cocainized coca leaf, and likely has the same amount of cocaine. The 0.4 micrograms per liter it contains means you'd have to drink... well, I found a study with rhesus monkies in which 0.00075 milligrams per kg of body weight was the smallest dose that seemed to influence behavior. In a 100kg person (220 lbs), if my math is correct, that comes out to 1875 liters to actually notice anything.)
