Not Possible

I just had to share this, a friend of mine has been trying to tell me he went an entire month with out eating, just drank water. I find this highly unlikely, I can see a few days maybe even a week but a month?! Thats just not possible... He's one of those cocky kinda guys that if you tell them something they have to tell you something better... Kinda like since im losing weight hes gonna eat nothing but salad and drink water for 3 months... :noway: anyways i think my friend needs to get his ideas checked because thats just unhealthy.. and as for the no food for a month... do you think thats possible?

    Ever seen the documentary "God Grew Tired of Us?"

    It's possible, but I sure as hell wouldn't suggest it.

    It can be done, but its a very bad idea to do it intentionally. Not that I believe the guy is telling the truth.

    Of course it's possible. Why wouldn't it be? Probably not very comfortable, though ...

    I believe the adage is that one can survive, on average, three minutes without air, three days without water, and three months without food, so it is possible, but definitely not recommended!

    I've read about political prisoners hunger striking like this, so you can survive it. But they often have HUGE health issues that come with it, like kidney or other organ shutdown, etc. :noway:

    I don't really buy that he's doing that just for "fun", but if he is, he's not too bright.

    And about 2 weeks with no sleep. World record is only 11 days...

    Well, I mean, David Blaine did it...

    Doesn't make it safe or smart or anything, but it's technically possible.
