You have to take a shit load of Tylenol to overdose that’s for sure. I think more than 100 capsules.
I don’t know from experience, my friend works as a EMT

As Da Burgler pointed out, it's nowhere near 100 capsules to do very serious damage and possibly kill you.

3 - The maximum allowable daily dose of Tylenol (acetaminophen) is 4 grams (or 4000 mg) in adults and 90 mg/kg in children.

Tylenol (acetaminophen) is available as a tablet, chewable tablet, capsule, caplet, geltab, gelcap, extended-release tablet, or liquid suspension to be taken by mouth with or without food. It is also available as a suppository. Regular strength Tylenol is 325 mg per pill. Extra strength Tylenol is 500 mg per pill. For adults, 8 extra strength Tylenol tablets is the maximum allowed per day. If you exceed that amount, you risk serious consequences.

I'm not posting that to be an asshole (for a change), but because the stuff can be FUCKING DANGEROUS, purely by accident.

And the symptons can be delayed for hours, so people don't know they've OD'd until it's too late.

Signs and symptoms of paracetamol toxicity may initially be absent or vague. Untreated, overdose can lead to liver failure and death within days. Paracetamol hepatotoxicity is, by far, the most common cause of acute liver failure in both the United States and the United Kingdom.[6][35] Paracetamol overdose results in more calls to poison control centers in the US than overdose of any other pharmacological substance.[36]
