How Much Alcohol Is Lethal?
Most authorities agree that a lethal dose of alcohol is about 0.40 percent, or about five times the 0.08 legal limit of many states. Death from alcohol poisoning may occur at much lower levels, however, especially with inexperienced drinkers. For a 120-pound individual, it would only take about nine to ten drinks in an hour to reach the lethal level.

Well they do say that the definition defines 1/2 the population would die from such levels. That does leave the other 1/2 that "might" live with higher levels.
