Redbull has high sugar and high caffeine content. I've used it before when I want to really stay up late. I found it not very effective though.

I know that it has an excessive amount of caffeine in it and that the younger people are consuming way too much of it. I don't know how the amount of caffeine compares with the amount in a cup of coffee, but it is more. People are drinking several cans/day, which is too much caffeine. It can cause sleep disturbances, high blood pressure, increased heart rate, and disturbances of the heart's rhythm. I suppose that it's like anything else; if it's consumed sensibly and in moderation it is OK, but if it is consumed in excess it could be quite dangerous.
