Rebbe Abahu would eat the fruits of Genosar until the flies slipped down his forehead.
Rav Ami and Rav Asi would eat the fruits of Genosar until hairs fell out of their heads.
Rebbe Shimon ben Lakish would eat the fruits of Genosar until he lost his mind. At that point, Rebbe Yochanan would send a message to the Rebbe Yehuda Nesiya, and the Rebbe Yehuda Nesiya would send a special force to return Rebbe Shimon ben Lakish to his home.
(Brachot 44a)
