Could standing in a kiddie pool filled with 95% alcohol (i.e., an alcoholic beverage that is 47 proof) get an adult drunk through osmosis?
If so, would it make a difference whether someone was up to his/her knees versus his neck in alcohol?

95% alcohol is 190 proof not 47. And this is yet another question I must simply shake and lower my head at.

the hassle-free actuality which you asked the question this way skill that the two you're so addicted to alcohol which you won't be able to think of... or that too many people might answer your honest question with "drink." How approximately examining a e book. gazing television. Going to work out a action picture. Take a walk. Play computing gadget video games. call up an previous buddy. call your mom. Do a craft. Rearrange your furniture. Write a play. circulate to a donning adventure. See a stay overall performance.

No.
Your skin is designed to keep stuff OUT! (Thank goodness!) If liquids could enter your body through osmosis, your entire body would swell every time you took a bath. But your skin is meant to keep the stuff on the inside of you in, and keep the stuff outside of you out.

yes alcohol can be absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream, and if you were up to your neck i suppose it would be faster since more of the skin would be exposed

Yes. Through absortion through the skin. Naturally, the more exposed skin, the more absorbtion.
