As part of a radio show contest, a group of contestants were instructed to drink 8oz of water every 15 minutes, and the person who could go without urinating for the longest time won. One woman, who came in second place, was said to have had almost 2 gallons in 3 hours. The employees working at the radio station were under the impression that since the human body is comprised mainly of water, drinking this much water would not be harmful. A few hours after the conclusion of the contest, the woman was found dead in her home.
