Sad all around, really. Especially considering that a nurse called, live on the radio, and warned them of the dangers of such a contest. The DJs responded by telling the nurse that the contestants all signed liabilities waivers, so they weren't concerned about it.

...very sad last words.

Things like this always make me wonder: Who is that determined that they'll do something so stupid (same goes for Fear Factor)? Who has so little sense? And on the other hand, is there anything I'm irrationally and outrageously devoted to, that I might do something destructively foolish in pursuit of? Haven't thought of anything yet other than maybe women. I sincerely hope I have more sense than those people.

Oh, and I'm glad to see that the crew were fired (if not more, criminal negligence? Some form of manslaughter?). I mean, you could make the argument that they'd just never heard of water intoxication (I have to admit I hadn't) except... they DID know about it, AND someone called up to tell them about it, and they ignored everything. Morons.

it's just natural selection in act.
Hereby announcing the "Hold your breath for a PS3" competition. The specific rules are whatever you can imagine, as long as it involves dying.

How about a "shoot yourself in the head for a PS3" competition :p

That's how the french do foie gras. Right guys?
They cause a disease in the gooses liver and cook it ;)

We don't give water to goose or duck to get foie gras, no. Also, the breeder/feeder has no interest for the bird to die from overfeeding, you see.

@xernobyl: http://www.stopgavage.com/ (btw, wtf ?) the majority get killed by a machine: cheaper..
...and after killing the goose we ate it. Those guys are complete morons.

Perigord ftw!

@Oswald: There is a judo technique to block blood going to the brain using hands and applying them to the throat.

Oswald: But if you pass out you might hit your head on something and die. And anyway, nobody said duct tape wasn't allowed.
