yesterday at my friends house, there were these little tubes [i forgot what they were called] and in them there was grape flavored liquor and on the side it said 30 proof. does that mean each one had 30% alcohol in them?how much alcohol makes you drunk?

100 proof is 50% For example, a glass of 24 proof wine would be 12% alcohol. A drink that is 40% alcohol would be 80 proof,30 proof is 15%
to find %
proof / 2 = %v/v
to find proof
%v/v * 2 = proof
well 190proof 4 12oz shots does the job

No, it means each one had 15% alcohol. Divide the proof of any liquor by two to get the percent alcohol. Your body size determines how much alcohol makes you drunk. Do a little test. Get a bottle of tequila. Take a shot every ten minutes. When the room starts to spin, you're drunk.
DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE!!

People get drunk because alcohol from your drink gets into your brain, slowing down the processes. That's why you should limit the amount of alcohol you put in your body. Drinking also makes your liver work harder, and can increase the risk of liver and colon cancer. Sure, people say it is good for your heart, but the risk, to my point of view, outweigh the benefits of alcohol. This is one of the many reasons I do not drink alcohol.

Alcohol intoxication is based on your body weight. The heavier you are the more it takes to intoxicate you. So there is really no way to tell you how much it will take to get you drunk.

no its not 30% alcohol, whiskey is around 85-99 proff. one ounce of whiskey and one beer have the same % of alcohol. one ounce, the other answer how much. what ever it takes to forget everything a least for a while

15%-Proof is double the percentage and as for amount, everybody's different, drink slowly, about two drinks an hour and you'll find your magic number!
