The Frenchman who drove Princess Diana to her death was a boozer who sucked whisky down like water and boasted about the important people he was protecting, reports say.
Henri Paul reportedly gulped a large whisky an hour before taking the Mercedes' wheel. His blood-alcohol level was reportedly almost four times higher than the legal limit when he died in the crash.
The Sun of London reported Tuesday that colleagues and bar workers said Paul was ``drunk as a pig'' after spending several hours downing draft beer and Scotch whiskey in a seedy Paris bar.
