Sceptic challenges spiritualist to kill him

[Scary]

I seem to remember the breatharians. they claimed you can get all of your bodily needs from the air

oxygen, food and water.

One of them went out into the outback iirc, to prove it. she died pretty quick.

Some utter genius right here.

In 1988 Lani Marcia Roslyn Morris, 53, was not feeling too well so she thought it a good idea to travel from Melbourne to Brisbane for some "spiritual cleansing". Jim Vadim Pesnak claimed to be able to cure her if she became a 'breatharian'. Breatharians belive they can survive by breathing air and living on light and she was to undertake a 21-day initiation process into breatharianism which involved seven days without any nourishment at all including water, and then a further 14 days on limited liquids.. Unfortunately for Ms Morris her condition deteriorated more and she became paralysed down one side, could not talk, and was vomiting a black tar-like substance while she lay in Mr. Pesnak's caravan in the backgarden on Beck Street, Ormiston, in bayside Brisbane. Mr. Pesnak did not call a doctor as he believed Ms Morris was only undergoing a spiritual blockage and would solve this by just breathing more. End of the story was that Ms. Morris died and Mr. Pesnak, 63, went to jail for 6 years and his wife Eugenia, 60, went to jail for 3 years on charges of manslaughter

There was once a Yorkshireman who believed that all these expeditions to climb Everest were a big over the top southern woofty poofty exaggeration and that he could stride to the top with nothing more than a tweed jacket and a sturdy walking stick. So off he went and was found a year later. I don’t think they bothered defrosting him.

Didn't he only get just south of Sheffield though??

Oh, further than that. Some Sherpas found him just below the north col of Everest.

Long way to go to sell double glazing.
