French police opened an investigation on Wednesday following the death of a man in his 50s after he downed 56 shots during a drinking competition.
The man, who was not named, was attempting to beat the previous record of 55 shots in a bar in Clermont-Ferrand in central France on Friday.
"He swallowed around 30 glasses in the space of a minute," a police source told AFP.
quote:
The bar manager told local daily La Montagne that the man was drinking "much too fast" and he advised him to stop after the first 30 or so shots.

do they award it posthumously or do you have to be alive to accept the title?

Hey, the record was to do 56 shots. Not 56 shots and live.
We'll need a judge's ruling on this one.

I am not a doctor, but I think I know what the autopsy is going to say.
