MATH TIME
From this site:
The human body contains up to ten pints of blood. Red blood cells are formed at a rate of 2 million per second.
Using this number, we get:
10 pints = 160 ounces.
160 oz. blood x 0.914% alcohol = 1.46 oz. pure alcohol in his circulatory system
1.46 oz. pure alcohol (200 proof) = 3.65 oz. of scotch (80-proof)
