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."

Already posted today. Interesting.

You tend to get desperate in those situations

This is the first thing ever that has brought a tear to my eye. What a happy ending.

if that guy could melt that much snow with his pee, couldnt he have more easily melted it with the heat on his car?

I will remember that incase anything happens to me up in the Swiss Alps this week! :thumbsup

Must have smelled awesome in there....good thing he was drunk :-p

I'll remember that next time I'm stuck in an avalanche with 60 beer.

why the fuck did he have be 60 half-litre bottles of beer with him?

I once peed my way out of a terrible blowjob...

just kidding

They said alcohol, not weed.

60 isn't all that much. I've had a lot more a few times when I've gone out to the summer cabin for the weekend with a few friends.

Good idea, smoke bowls and melt the alps.
