A French bar owner has been found guilty of killing his customer after serving him 56 shots of spirits in one sitting.
Landlord and bartender Giles Crepin from Clermont-Ferrand escaped jail with a four-month suspended sentence. The alcoholic shots were consumed in October of 2014 at the Le Starter bar, by Renaud Prudhomme, 57. He was trying to beat the record of shots consumed in a single sitting, which was 55 at that time. The bar owner told Mr Prudhomme that he had only ’12 to go’ to beat the record. At the end of the session Renaud Prudhomme beat the record by one after downing 56 shots of spirits. He died the following day from a heart attack.
Mr Giles Crepin denied responsibility for customer’s health issues when purchasing drinks from his bar. He did admit it was a mistake to encourage the customer to consume more shots.
The 47-year-old told Mr Prudhomme that he only had “12 to go” as neared the end of his drinking session in October 2014.
After successfully downing his shots, he was carried home by his daughter and friends.
The French can`t hold their liquor.
