Awesome

Quote:
Man peed way out of avalanche

A Slovak man trapped in his car under an avalanche freed himself by drinking 60 bottles of beer and urinating on the snow to melt it.

Rescue teams found Richard Kral drunk and staggering along a mountain path four days after his Audi car was buried in the Slovak Tatra mountains.

He told them that after the avalanche, he had opened his car window and tried to dig his way out.

But as he dug with his hands, he realised the snow would fill his car before he managed to break through.

He had 60 half-litre bottles of beer in his car as he was going on holiday, and after cracking one open to think about the problem he realised he could urinate on the snow to melt it, local media reported.

He said: "I was scooping the snow from above me and packing it down below the window, and then I peed on it to melt it. It was hard and now my kidneys and liver hurt. But I'm glad the beer I took on holiday turned out to be useful and I managed to get out of there."

Parts of Europe have this week been hit by the heaviest snowfalls since 1941, with some places registering more than ten feet of snow in 24 hours.

Jay-Z is going to be upset he kicked R.Kelly off the tour, once it hits Canada. The guy could really come in handy, you know.

I know it's not nearly as cool, but would't the amount of beer he ended up drinking be more than the amount of piss he used to melt the snow, therefore allowing him to get out with a few beers left over to enjoy without being surrounded by snow?

I'm all for drunkenness, but if my ass is stuck in an avalanche, I want to be firing on all cylinders.

"So...I'm probably going to die...but I got all this beer here...hmmm...[strokes chin]...[drinks]...hey, now I gotta take a piss...might as well piss out the window...hey, looka that, it's melting!...[takes another drink]..."

Nope, makes perfect sense.

I think the Streets just found the first single for their next record, too.

The way I understood the story, he was afraid that if he dug his way out, his car would be filled with snow before he had reached the surface. By digging the snow below his window (whether inside or outside of the car, I couldn't tell), and then pissing on it to melt it down, he was able to generate more space by reducing the volume of the snow by melting it. By generating that extra space, he was then able to dig his way out without getting mired in snow.

If this is true, he's really quite the drunken master <rimshot>
