How much bourbon does an average male have to drink to pass out?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Use the above link to calculate blood alcohol content and use 62.5% for percent alcohol

This link will give bac and blood alcohol levels and how one's body responds at these levels.

Of course this varies widely. Not everyone has the same tolerance.

M$say an average male is 175 pounds and each shot or mixed drink has a measured 1.5 ounces of 80 proof bourbon and each drink is every 10 minutes.
If you speak of actual passing out, that happens at a BAC of around .40, which would take at least 15 drinks or shots.
However, unless you are a power drinker or down shot after shot in a much quicker time, your body is more likely to react by vomiting the alcohol out of your system to prevent alcohol poisoning.
Just falling asleep from already being fatigued and putting a depressant in your body is going to take much less time.
I'm not going to get into the short or long term effects of drinking to pass out and I sincerely hope your question is to avoid getting that far rather than trying to test it.

As people vary in their metabolism and alcohol is absorbed slower if you have eaten this is only a rough estimate. It would be very dangerous to try and test this.
People who chug hard liquor can actually die of alcohol poisoning, which begins around BAC .4 This really happens from time to time, usually at college parties or fraternity hazings. There is enough alcohol in a litre of vodka (or bourbon) to kill you, as in the recent incident sourced.
Beer is far safer to drink as it would be extremely difficult to drink enough beer fast enough to reach a poisonous level. In practice it never happens. Although I did find a Bulgarian news item that showed someone reaching a normally lethal BAC after the equivalent of about 10 six packs.
Looking at your question another way, however, one could drink any amount of bourbon without passing out as long as one kept the rate down to about one shot an hour. That's the approximate rate at which the alcohol is broken down by the body.
