Once home I'll probably down two or three more coffees before going to bed. I'm probably swallowing around. 3 times the considered safe dose

Looks like I need to be buying decaf
I think it was more that he drank that amount in such a short space of time.

As the article suggests, him drinking that same amount more slowly could've made the difference.
