Old man knows secrets of the world, has awesome bladder

Prahlad Jani claims he has lived without food or drink for the past 70 years, yet most people can’t spend two hours playing World of Warcraft without having to pee. What could we all possibly learn from this Indian holy man?

Jani recently spent a period of two weeks being observed by a team of military doctors in Western India state of Gujarat, to test claims that he could survive without food or drink for an extended period of time. The holy man was confined to a hospital, where a team of 30 monitored his every move and camera recorded every moment of his captivity.

If the holy man was cheating during the two-week period, bathing would have been his only chance to do so. If the key to being without food or water for an extended period of time lies in bathing, MMO players might want to stick with pizza and Mountain Dew. While doctors await the results of DNA analysis, molecular biological studies and tests on his hormones, enzymes, energy metabolism and genes, gamers, members of the press, and the makers of Gamer Grub hang on the edge of their seats.
