I missed the old Jack3d formula. Still hoping to find a tub on eBay eventually.

Change the title. He died from straight caffeine overdose. It wasn't a pre-workout formula, he was eating straight caffeine powder.

I snort my pre workout in lines.
Straight to the brain, my pump is so fricking intense.

Did you read the article? It was not a packaged pre-workout but pure powdered caffeine anhydrous which you can buy online. Apparently he was taking it as a pre-workout though.

In other news. someone died from OD'ing on H2O or any other item abused instead of used correctly.

Yeah, it wasn't a pre-workout. He took a shite ton of caffeine. Caffeine pills and such are not "pre-workouts" per se, though are often used in place of pre-workouts.
The kid, as his mother said, "had no idea what he was doing." But when you take in enough caffeine to die... I'm assuming he was ingesting well over 200 mg of caffeine. 200 mg of caffeine is tolerable by most people, though it may induce shaking in some.
Here's the article from ABC News:

Here's the article from ABC News:
quote:
Logan Stiner, a senior at Keystone High School in LaGrange, southwest of Cleveland, died suddenly at home on May 27, a week before his graduation.
Lorain County coroner Stephen Evans said Stiner, 18, was a good student who "didn't do drugs, was an athlete."
"So we were perplexed at first," Evans said. "Because why does a young, healthy person suddenly have a cardiac arrhythmia and a seizure and die?"
An autopsy last week showed Stiner had a lethal amount of caffeine in his blood caused by the powdery substance, likely purchased online.
Evans said he found out the powder is sometimes used as an additive by weightlifters and exercise enthusiasts. He said 1/16th of a teaspoon contains 200 milligrams of caffeine, about the equivalent of the caffeine in two large cups of coffee.
"You'd have to be a chemist to figure out how much to put in so that you're not in a lethal amount," Evans said. "You'd have to really know what you were doing and have scales."
Evans said Stiner had more than 70 micrograms of caffeine per milliliter of blood in his system, while a typical coffee drinker would have 3 to 5 micrograms.
The commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration said in May that the increasing amount of caffeine in a whole range of foods "has gotten our attention and concern."
Commissioner Margaret Hamburg said her agency needs to better understand the role of the stimulant in non-traditional products, especially on children. She said the science is not absolutely clear about its effects.
The agency is investigating the safety of energy drinks and energy shots, prompted by consumer reports of illness and death.
