I cannot quote the source but after having spent 2 decades training under the direction of Russian classical weightlifting champs one picks up things.
You can do even better, become an Olympic level athlete and then drink 100 grams of vodka, see what happens...
I`m far from being one but in my best days, half a beer would screw me up for about 3-4 days.
When out of shape I can drink 750 bottle of rum/day and not feel any hangover.
When one is in peak shape, the internal organs are working overtime,throw 1 gram of booze on them and your strength goes down by 10%.

become an Olympic level athlete

Missing 20 minutes of sleep will probably seriously harm an olympic athlete's performance as well, thankfully us normal people can afford it without screwing up our life's ambitions.
