This is a question Pointless Experiments

Pavlov's Frog writes: I once spent 20 minutes with my eyes closed to see what it was like being blind. I smashed my knee on the kitchen cupboard, and decided I'd be better off deaf as you can still watch television.

my chemistry teacher
was a legend and a half. Not much actual a level prep was done during our lessons with him, we would just build volcanoes and pour Hcl on jelly babies... you know the fun bits of chemistry.
Anywho one day we were actually doing something from the syllabus about the structure of alcohol or something, and he shared with us an experiment he undertook during his early days of teaching.

Being a very enthusiastic chemist, he took that as an excuse to brew his own booze. Not just his own beer, but spirits.
He used to create concoctions of various different strengths from about 2% to about 90% and everything in between.
So one day he decided to test how strong the alcohol percentage had to be before the alcohol over powered the taste of the spirit.
so he set up all his shots and began drinking.

Conclusion: Ha ahs no idea as he only remembers getting as far as 20% and then the rest is a foggy darkness until his woke up in hospital with acute alcohol poisoning.
