what if..... you car was on fire, your trapped inside after drinking 15 shots of tequila, 20 beers, 16 magaritas and 20 long island iced teas (bare with me.. i know thats impossible) and the driver had zero alcohol in his system... are you more flammable?

I say that now when im drunk "im not wasted.. im fackin flammable brotha!"

Well then to answer..

Since you said he has 0 alcohol in his system that means that the liver has converted the ethanol into acetaldehyde which is actually pretty flamable. The liver would then oxidize that into acetic acid which is part of the citric cycle for energy production in the body. There is a saturation point where the alcohol can not be converted and passes through the blood stream which is where i will draw my conclusions. I still doubt even with all that drinking the blood alcohol would be even above 2% you die btw above 0.4% well at least 50% of people do.

Acetaldehyde has pretty interesting properties but to actually be flammable it would need to pass through the skin barrier and the most likely source for that would be lungs. Air mixture dilutions as low as 4% could cause ignition but unfortunately the co2 we produce as we exhale would be more than enough to snuff that possibility out. Soon as the vapor hit the air it would disperse in concentrations too low to be ignited.

I did do extremely well in science hmm...

Maybe that was because I loved learning how things react so I could blow them up
