There was a case of a runaway girl who "committed suicide"/was murdered by drinking an alcoholic drink mixed with a ton of a lidocaine containing topical spray. Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

Doesn't mean you should what? Murder people? Wise advice

I just happened to have a toothache and noticed the warning on the bottle about methemoglobinemia. Figured I'd see if anyone had this idea and I just wanted to throw my $0.02 in here: CTB with SN is an almost certainty. Trying to induce methemoglobinemia with an oral topical anesthetic is almost certainly going to fail. In the past decade, there have only been 119 reports of benzocaine-induced methemoglobinemia and some of those were children, who are more susceptible. Developing methemoglobinemia in this way is going to depend more on your body chemistry than anything, and it seems like it has similar odds to winning the Powerball.
