You should sell that as a rapid weight loss programme, you already have one testimonial

Right well there's only one way to prove this.

See you in 25 days.

Oh and didn't David Blane do it?

There's major skeptism over Blaine's stunt.  The rumour has he was being given food by the workmen who went up to clean his perspex box.  It's then said he ate this food at night when he could conceal the activity in his sleeping bag.  It's perpetuated by the fact his box was cleaned everyday.

However, on man who did nearly a month (21 days) was Ghandi during his imprisonment.  When you consider that he only had sips of water, was 74 and already of slight build; it is easy to imagine a young, healthy person being able to do a full 30 days (although I wouldn't advise it).

About 30 hours. Escape and evasion training over the mountains of Norway. Got to the first RV and was given a stale Turkey sandwich. Best thing l ever had.
Its amazing how hungry you get when grafting. We did end up liberating some food from a holiday house type thing half way up one mountain and then bumbed into the owners half way down. funnily enough we did'nt stop for pleasantry's.
Spent 3 weeks in Norway on exercise and l was eating loads of scoff, but still managed to lose about 2 stone. Mind you l did manage to put it back on again on leave with beer and kebabs

Over a week, felt hungry but at the same time, didnt feel compelled to have anything, i was in a weird place at the time though...

i don't think i've gone a day without eating in my life.even when i don't want to eat if i'm sick or something i force myself to.the first time i didn't i think i lost 20 pounds in about a week.

4-6 days easily as a kid during the war.
Sometimes up to 10 days with 2 meals

I did a couple tours of the Balkans and heard a few storys when l was in. What amazed me was the fact that after 10 years we were still getting shit loads of weapons handed in. Another thing that amazed me was the sheer savagery of some people and the fact they could do some of the attrocitys l've heard about.

3 days.

I was literally so irrationally anxious that i didn't eat for 3 days.

Then i ate like... 4 burritos

and drank 2 liters of soda.


in about 10 minutes.



and then I puked.



this happened last week.



it was really bizzare.

Prolonged starvation (in excess of 1-2 months) causes permanent organ damage and, eventually, death.
