Recently, a 52-year-old villager from Sha County in Fujian (origin of the famous “Shaxian Xiaochi” cuisine) surnamed Huang died from stomach convulsions after drinking too much cola.
Huang recently attended a relatives’ party where they were celebrating a baby’s one-month-old birthday - a traditional Chinese ritual where the baby’s name is often announced. After drinking a whole load of cola, Huang suddenly felt sharp pains in her stomach, which lingered for three hours until she decided to go to a hospital.
A doctor confirmed that Huang’s stomach contained 3,000ml of residue from the cola, which had reportedly “burst her stomach like a balloon”. Such a situation can lead to acute gastric dilation, and can cause a decrease in blood circulation and pressure as well as death.

Never knew this was possible, wow. I can't say I've ever read anyone dying this way before. I knew some kids back in high school that carried around 2 litre bottles and could drink it all day long.
