BERLIN -- A man nearly died from alcohol poisoning after quaffing a liter (two pints) of vodka at an airport security check instead of handing it over to comply with new carry-on rules, police said Wednesday.
The incident occurred at the Nuremberg airport on Tuesday, where the 64-year-old man was switching planes on his way home to Dresden from a holiday in Egypt.
New airport rules prohibit passengers from carrying larger quantities of liquid onto planes, and he was told at a security check he would have to either throw out the bottle of vodka or pay a fee to have his carry-on bag checked as cargo.
Instead, he chugged the bottle down - and was quickly unable to stand or otherwise function, police said.
A doctor called to the scene determined he had possibly life-threatening alcohol poisoning, and he was sent to a Nuremberg clinic for treatment.
The man, whose name was not released, is expected to be able to complete his journey home in a few days.

Ouch !!!!!
S.I.A. ..... That is a classic picture .
Taken in the spring of 1965 - when a web of local laws in the South ( poll taxes , literacy tests , etc ... ) prevented Blacks from voting -- here we seen MLK informing Johnson that he planned a Civil / Voting Rights March in Selma , AL to push for a National Voting Rights Act that guaranteed all citizens of the United States the right to vote ( Er ..... , Democratic , of course ) .
Four Months later LBJ signed the Voting Rghts Act of 1965 into LAW !!!!!!!!!
