Too much coffee will not make you tired the next day. Lack of sleep and poor sleep patterns will though.
40 cups of coffee a day is probably worse than 20 cigarettes. How can anyone even drink that much? If you were awake for an average of 16 hours a day, thats two and half cups per hour, and I sincerely doubt anyone could drink two and half cups of coffee every hour, each day.
Too much caffeine certainly has some adverse effects, ranging from headaches to panic attacks and even death. http://www.energyfiend.com/caffeine-overdose-facts... (note that tiredness is not mentioned anywhere on that page!).

I don't think it can kill you. Coffee is actually good for you, like tea. If you drink too much it can cause headaches, tension, and your eyes will sometimes twitch. You should drink water or non caffeinated throughout the day with your coffee. Some people can sleep after drinking coffee, some are wide awake, but I don't think it makes you sleepy. I aren't getting enough sleep for your daily activities that could be why or you re getting too much sleep
40 cups per hour is a lot of caffeine but I think it all depends on your body...I wouldn't try that. Like some people can be hospitalized after 3 monsters a day and some drink a 6 pack and aren't effected

From what I've heard, some people start relying upon it...then when they try giving it up they actually experience withdrawal symptoms like headaches etc.
I think 1 cup of black coffee each day would probably be good for you.

It can cause tension, headaches, insomnia, irritability. 40 cups per hour?? I think you'd probably drown in the stuff :) but that much caffeine could mess up your heart rate

It increases your heart rate, which in turn is what keeps you energized and awake.
Don't know about killing you but too much caffeine can intoxicate your body. I recommended you drink plenty of water afterwards to flush most of the caffeine out of your body.
