Man Pees himself out of an avalanche
Not sure if this is true or not, but it is a good story. Thanks to Dave for the article
A man got stuck in his car in an avalanche. He rolled down his window and tried to dig himself out, but realized it wasn't really working. In a move that would make McGuiver and any Wisconian proud, he started drinking.
He had 60 half litre's of beer in his car. He quickly realized that his urine could be used to melt the snow.
Rescue teams spotted him staggering along a mountain path four days later.
Any time someone gives you crap for drinking heavily, tell them this story and ask them to thank you because you're in training to save lives.
