To answer your question, if you drink alcohol without having food in your stomach first, it absorbs into your bloodstream faster and you BAC (blood alcohol content) will be higher than if you had eaten food. Was it like your usual falling asleep, or was it a new sort of experience? If you pass out after drinking and it's sort of hard to wake you up you probably blacked out. Blacking out is what happens once you have reached the level of alcohol POISONING. You don't want this to happen again. If it does, there is the possibility that your body will shut down while you're blacked out and you will stop breathing. Also, if it gets to the point that you're vomiting, you could die from choking on the vomit.
If you INSIST on getting drunk, don't do it without someone you can trust to help you in an emergency like that. Don't worry about getting in trouble, just call 911 and get help. It's better to risk getting busted than to die drinking beer. Personally, I don't think getting drunk is that great an idea. I'm a college student and I have yet to get drunk and I'm doing just fine. It's your choice whether to drink, and if you choose to drink underage, you should learn about things like alcohol poisoning so that you're prepared. Remember to eat before drinking and space your drinks out so that you don't overdo it.
It probably would be in your best interests to learn the laws, too lol. Actually it IS illegal to purchase, drink, possess, or transport any alcoholic drink if you're under 21. The location doesn't matter.

the reason why there is an age limit on alcohol is so the alcohol will take to bodies. if your under 18 then your body wont take to it as good as a grown ups so you get tipsy more quicker and also feel really rotten in the morning.
if you drink on an empty stomach its bound to make yo tipsy more.
as your only 15, i understand that you were with an adult when drinking. to be honest dont bother me wether you were or not.
ll teenagers have to find out what alcohol does to you some time throughout your teenage years. so you now know.

im not gonna say anything bout u bein 15 or say dont do it cuz no matter what i or anyone else says u will do wat u want, besidesme and my friends used to mix alcohol with orange/ apple juice and bring it to school hahaha man was that fun!.....but anyways you got dizzy bcuz you had 4 beers on a completely empty stomach. if you drink on an empty stomach the alcohol is absorbed faster and takes effect faster. thats why you became dizzy so fast. just be careful when you do that kind of stuff, since im assuming you dont kno ur alcohol limit

You drank alcohol on an empty stomach so that's the main reason. Alcohol will make you feel that way on an empty stomach.
15 is a bit young for 4 beers. maybe just have 2 in future.

What kind of a parent or adult will give the permission to drink beers? Especially on an empty stomach.
It does not only blackouts it is dangerous to your health in numerous ways by the way I am 15 too But I havent drunk a single beer its not coz my parents dont allow its coz I care about my health. You should do the same. Love ya all ;)

Because there is nothing in your stomach to soak up the alcohol so it goes straight into your system. If you go out and drink on an empty stomach you are guaranteed to be asleep by closing time!

It amuses me how people do stupid things...like drink 4 beers on an empty stomach, pass out...and then wake up and write about it on Yahoo answers. Is it to impress us? To show us that you are capable of drinking 4 beers? Any competent person would know that drinking 4 beers (regardless of eating) will make a person tipsy, especially if you don't weigh all that much. Grow Up.

I would say because you drank on an empty stomach. It is better for you to eat before you drink.
