Water poisoning is very similar to alcohol poisoning.. your leukocites(sp) blow up like balloons.

"Hold Your Wee for a Wii." Rofl!

But yeah it's pretty messed up.
In the middle ages, it was a kind of torture, as they'd force one to drink.

It's kind of a weird contest, except for the name.
They better think of something else and more safe.

Who held this contest, cause that is seriously sick. I can't believe theyy did't think of this before they started the contest. You would think they could think of something a little safer.

Yeah it sounds pretty harmless. Though too much of anything can't be good I guess. :D

I don't see what's so harmless about drinking gallons upon gallons of water and trying to hold in it for as long as you can...
Being able to piss is there for a reason.

It's like if air was being pumped into you and you were to not breathe out anymore, eventually something bad would happen.
Or eating and eating and eating and eating and eating some more, and not going number two for weeks upon weeks.

When you drink too much you get a hypoglycemic dip and the brain is deprived of glucose.and in a worse case scenario this can lead to death.

Consider it to be a fatal effect. :)

Atleast this pussy won't get pwned by water. Farking embarassing - who dies by water.

I mean...litterally...

I shit on the stuff, I wash my balls with the stuff, I eat/drink the stuff... I abuse water as if it were my cellmate.

Water will poison you in your sleep. Be afraid.

I'm surprised they haven't been sued.

Me too. Although they probably got fired really quickly so the company wouldn't get dragged into the mess. But dam, what a retarded contest.

Too much is never enough :P
By the way Dom: Fish have sex in water 8)
Anyways this kinda fits:
:!: Warning: Excessive Biological Thoughts here :!:
This week in Biology we had the topic osmosis
( the movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from a region of low solute potential to a region of high solute potential (or equivalently, from a region of high solvent potential to a region of low solvent potential))
Water is transported in and out of cells :roll: .
The blood is isotonic, meaning it has 0.9% solute-concentration
if you drink stuff with a higher concentration( sea water)
water is drawn from the blood cells which take the shape of spiked apples and tend to clot.
--> the blood always strive to regulating its solute concentration back down to 0.9%

In this case she drank/assimilated a fluid with a lower solute concentration.
That means the Blood cells absorb the abundant water and eventually burst
Result: No more Blood Cells :arrow: No more Oxygen :arrow: You die :shock:

Our teacher warned us not to do any of those "contests" and 2 days l8 everywhere people drink themselves to death :roll:
Aint that a b?

Is it mean, if I think it was funny.

Osomsis pwned people, she should've paid attention in biologyclass.
Normally you body reacts by vomitting to get rid of the excess of water and other reactions to lose water.

Yah it was on the news. As mentioned in the link, there was a call right before that said like literally, "this contest could be really dangerous" and they only said "whatever, not our fault, it's the people's choices" in a very indifferent tone.

I can explode but it's not likely.

Bladder rupture can happen if there is some kind of obstruction. The only medical references I read of this happening by "holding it" are with patients that had a recent previous injury or surgery to their bladder.

If it does happen, it certainly won't burst or explode just like your appendix doesn't burst or explode. What happens is that it develops a tear and the fluid leaks out and the pressure is relieved. This fluid will go into your body and cause sepsis or septic shock which is usually fatal if not treated immediately. :)
