MAN: The average person can survive

3 to 4 days without water, but did you know

a Japanese hiker once survived over 3 weeks

without water? Doctors believe he survived

by falling into a hibernation-like sleep. Our

body doesn’t need as much water during such

hibernation.

ANIMAL: When the African lungfish

realizes that its lake is drying up, it will

bury itself for as long as 4 years waiting for

the water to return.

MAN: How long can you hold your breath? 3 minutes is typically the longest. But swimmer Peter Colat broke the Guinness world record by holding his breath for 21 minutes and 33 seconds!

ANIMAL: The microscopic water bear, which lives on plants, is no stranger to surviving without breathing. In its special “death-like” state, it can stop breathing for up to 100 years!

MAN: Normally, you can last 3 weeks without eating anything. But some prisoners on a hunger strike have survived over 10 weeks without eating a bite.

ANIMAL: Reptiles and other cold-blooded animals can go months without eating, and alligators have been known to last for up to 2 years without eating.
