Man peed way out of avalanche

[Bootprint]

I wonder if at any point he thought he might not make it out, and thought about peeing out his will?

He's lucky that worked. If he hadn't peed his way out, he'd probably die much sooner from dehydration due to all the beer he drank.

umm he was burried in snow. he had plenty of water around.

Eating snow causes dehydration.

alcoholism no longer a disease, its adaptive behavior!

I still always have to wonder about the veracity of anything from Ananova.

Ananova is the biggest hoax news magazine out there.

Eating snow causes dehydration.

You sure, I thought it was hypothermia as it takes alot of energy (which has to come from somewhere) to convert the snow to water. The converted water itself does provide hydration, but not energy.

Assuming for a minute that this is true (and I seriously doubt it) he could have gotten out a lot faster by simply pouring the beer on the snow.

It's a wonder he didn't get alcohol poisoning or just pass out. I wonder how long he was at it.

He was trapped for 4 days it said.

 

[Kipper]

Awesome.

What Actually Happened:

The man had been drinking prior to the avalanche and was in fact driving while intoxicated. He then managed to drive his car off the mountain road, and into a snow bank which was perceived by him to an "avalanche". High as a kite, he then continued to drink himself silly, only stopping to pee. eventually after a while, he fell out of his car and was 'rescued'.

 

[b0mbrman]

I bet he was just some drunk guy stumbling around, making up random stories...and some stupid reporter believed the one about how he peed his way out of an avalanche

 

[Queasy]

Why wouldn't he just pour the beer on the snow? Would that have not melted it as well?
