Man Says He Hasn't Eaten in 70 Years

Indian yogi, Prahlad Jani, actually thinks we are stupid enough to believe he has had nothing to eat or drink since 1940. Here's part of the article just for laughs.
"
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.

But that’s simply impossible, said Dr. Michael Van Rooyen an emergency physician at Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital, an associate professor at the medical school, and the director of the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative – which focuses on aid to displaced populations who lack food and water."

The guy is 82 years old. That means he hasn't eaten since he was 12, in the midst of his major growing years.

Yeah, I'll believe the Indian Rope trick too if they can find a way of doing it without the wires.

Then they tested him for two weeks. I say lock his ass up in a cage in a sealed room with no visitors for a couple of months and see how long he lasts.
