TIL king Gustav III of Sweden commuted the death sentences of a set of twins to life imprisonment if one drank 3 pots of coffee and the other drank 3 pots of tea to test the effects of the newly introduced coffee.

via reddit.com

Okay but what this doesn’t say is that they had to drink three pots everyday, for the rest of their lives. The point was to see which of them died first and if coffee was dangerous.

Both supervising doctors died before their patients did, and the tea drinker was the first of the two to die at age 83. It’s not known when the coffee drinker died.

It made him too powerful and he’s still out there
