Seriously, guys. I mean, every single person who has ever died drank water at one point in his or her life.

Truth.

    This is true. Both my grandfathers are dead and they were water drinkers...

    I am clearly immune to that.

    That is 100% statistically correct and guaranteed.

    Being born also kills. 100% of people who are born die.

    Yes, but can I include dying in my 8 cups of water? Or does it have to be pure death?

    About 5 years ago, my wife went into the hospital for surgery. She drinks a lot of water anyways, but after the surgery she was consuming a lot of water, but not eating. Nurses didn't catch it, because it crossed shifts. Leached all the electrolytes and such out of her body and slipped into a coma. Was very scary. She was in coma for about 4 days.

    Didn't want to rain on your funny post, but just thought I'd point out that it really can be dangerous.

    Safe to say if you consumed mass amounts of any one thing and ONLY that thing you would have adverse results.
    As a nurse I have to say something was amiss in that ward for no one to have noticed the intake and output, particularly after surgical procedure. Dothey not chart there and then do they not read charts when coming on shift?
    Hope your wife is feeling better

    It's used as a coolant in nuclear reactors. That can't be safe to give to your kids. Don't forget that it's fatal if inhaled.
