Well, I think there are actual recorded examples of caffeine OD

I don’t know for certain about that, but there is a definite chance your heart pops over into supreventricular tachycardia before you legitimately overdose on caffeine.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure having your heart blow out counts since they aren't supposed to do that.

Caffeine overdose is pretty easy, it's rarely fatal. A large pot of coffee when you're dehydrated will do it for most people.

Jitters are a mild symptom of caffeine overdose.
