Prahlad Jani, an 82-year-old Indian yogi, is making headlines by claims that for the past 70 years he has had nothing -- not one calorie -- to eat and not one drop of liquid to drink. To test his claims, Indian military doctors put him under round-the-clock observation during a two-week hospital stay that ended last week, news reports say. During that time he didn’t ingest any food or water – and remained perfectly healthy, the researchers said.

Fiction or really damn strange. I'm voting fiction though.

There's no way that you could starve yourself for that long and survive. I call BS.

David Blaine has nothing on this guy

SMH @ people believing this. Stick gramps in an isolated room for 3 days and watch him die right there.

 

[Majic Walrus]

I mean there are recorded fastings that have gone on very long but most of the time the fasters did drink and often they ate (things like yogurt), but even when they didn't eat or drink they became noticeably ill.

I call BS.

 

[The Squirrel]

False.

It is total BS. Your body needs energy to survive and if you don't have any fuel to convert into energy, then you die. He is absolutely lying. I would want to see him under observation for a month or more and then see if he lives.

People eat bugs in they're sleep.

I call shinanigans.

 

[Yurka]

I heard it was 7 years which is still insane, but 70 is just straight unbelievable.

BS.

I believe it. I get tired of eating sometimes too. Food gets boring. I'd rather have sex.

Until they have the guy monitored in a sealed room with no food, I'm not buying it for a second.

Reach for the stars, enjoy both.

 

[Metamorpho1977]

I fasted for 30 days one time. Wasn't a total fast. I drank fruit juice, but by the end of the 30 days, I hit the Ryan's buffet like a prison inmate his first day out of the slammer.

 

[Sensi]

This is stupid.

 

[Mystirious]

I can believe it. The world is a strange place and this isn't the strangest thing I've ever heard

I'd want him to do it again under round the clock surveillance for another 70 years if he wants everyone to believe it though

 

[The Battousai]

It is literally impossible for you body to survive without proper nutrients - it's like trying to drive a car without any gas.

I don't like you that way JP... stop persisting.

 

[WolfCypher]

He's a witch, I tell ya! I Giant Chicken Witch!

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

So what, he doesn't eat. My superpower is better. My power is not being on fire.

 

[Vintage]

your minds are in boxes! 70 years sounds like an exageration but kudos for going the 2 supervised weeks.

 

[The Geek Vault]

From what I read they have him sealed in a room with no food and he's doing pretty good. His body is reusing his waste for energy

 

[The Battousai]

Maybe the real information should be looked at.
